Disease Prevention - scientific studies show that living foods have healing powers that can alleviate many health problems, such as, low energy, allergies, digestive disorders, weak immune system, high cholesterol, candida and obesity. The Power of Raw Vegan Foods! These living foods contain enzymes vs. cooked food which is devoid of enzymes. Cooking food changes the molecular structure of the food. In general, the act of heating food destroys enzymes in food. Protect the Enzymes. Enzymes start to degrade in as little as 106 degrees F. Living and raw foods also have enormously higher nutrient values than the foods that have been cooked. This belief is based on the work of Artturi Virtanen, a biochemist, and on the research of Dr. Edward Howell, an Illinois physician born in 1898, who researched how enzymes played a role in a person's diet. He concluded that eating cooked food leads to health problems. Look at the Science…In 1985, Howell published a book in which he claimed that laboratory rats fed cooked foods had an overly large pancreas size. Some raw food diet proponents believe that Howell's book shows that the pancreas is forced to work harder on a diet of cooked foods and that enzymes in food are just as essential to digestion as the body's self-generated enzymes. Great News for Athletes! Professor Karl Eimer, director of the Medical Clinic at the University of Vienna studied the effect of a 100% raw diet on athletes. He placed his subjects on a two week program of intense physical training while they continued to consume their usual cooked diet. Their athletic performance was monitored and evaluated. They were then put on a 100% raw diet and continued their training. Without exception the athletes demonstrated improvements in reflex speed, flexibility and stamina.
