The Power of Living Foods

Icon_tip_3

You may be trying to figure out the right diet for your journey toward living healthier. You’ve heard of Weight Watchers, The South Beach Diet and numerous other mainstream options. Have you heard of the Raw Food diet? More and more people are gravitating towards raw foods to lose weight and improve their health.

The Raw Food movement, also known as the “Living Foods” movement, is based on the idea your body is made to process “raw” foods. Proponents, like healthy living expert David Wolfe, believe living foods have essential enzymes that are damaged or destroyed once they’re cooked at temperatures higher than 115 degrees fahrenheit. Meals usually consist of fruits, vegetables and nuts. Eating these natural foods in their raw state provides your body with the enzymes and nutrients needed to increase digestion. Other reported benefits include clear skin, fat loss, increased energy and prevention of some chronic diseases.

Though fruits like apples and oranges are good, there are certain nutrient-rich super foods like super blue-green algae and bee pollen that really aid in improving one’s health. The core component of the raw food diet is lots of green, leafy vegetables like kale that provide iron, magnesium and calcium.

If the idea of giving up grilled chicken frightens you, start small. Try replacing one meal a day with a raw food meal. Once you get accustomed to it, try eating only raw foods for a week or more.

My husband encouraged us to come out of our shell and tell the world about the man behind the medicine that brought us back together after 7 years of separation. He was so astonished by the amazing spell by Dr. Wakina (dr.wakinalovetemple@gmail.com) that reunited our undying love for each other that proved we are sole mate. There has been a barrier between us, we regularly disagrees with each other, argue over unnecessary things and fight almost every week when we were still unmarried. We eventually separated for some months due unsolvable issues before he moved to Italy for 4 years.
Though it might sound impossible to still get hold of your crush for that period of time without any means of communication. I always felt he took my heart away with him because I could not fall in love again and I could not stop thinking about him but I can not be with him. Doc Wakina (dr.wakinalovetemple@gmail.com) proved that nothing relating to love issues is impossible for him; doctor also proved that true love does not die after broking the barriers between us. Days after the spell, he returned unexpectedly to take me along with him. My happiest moment is seeing us live happily for a year without issues before getting married. We are still astonished by the good spiritual work that brought us together forever.

Folks! "The Raw Food movement, also known as the “Living Foods” movement,..." Huh???? Raw Foods are not always Living Foods, and it's a huge mistake to call them the same.
