Hi. Excuse me for jumping in..especially because I am really new to this. But it's my understanding that one benefit to raw (aside from the extra energy) is that it preserves the enzymes. And enzymes act as a catalyst for just about every process in the body. Cooking food kills these essential enzymes so if you fuel your body with cooked and overprocessed food you not only invade your body with toxins but the food is void of the very enzymes the body needs to break it down. If you feed your body with good energized nutrient rich food with living enzymes...then your body doesn't have to work as hard and it can concentrate on healing itself instead of warding off toxic invaders. O.K., I am a newbie here and so I certainly don't claim to be an expert but this is what I've learned from my research prior to going raw. If I am wrong then please someone correct me as I am still learning!
