How A Raw Food Diet Works
By Aditi Joshi
Raw Foods diet sounds like a throwback to the early days of our society when everyone had a garden. The plan is similar to vegetarian diet plans in that most of the foods come from plant sources. Raw foods are thought to contain nutrients that are good for the body but tend to be lost in the canning and preserving process.
The Raw Foods diet emphasizes eating foods in their purest form. Fruits, most vegetables, nuts, and other grains can be eaten without any cooking done to them. Most meals in this diet consist of salads - even at breakfast. Salad dressing can be simple like oil and vinegar or lemon juice.
The carbohydrate count on this diet is low. Any processed food like breads, pastas, and rice are eliminated. Vegetables provide carbohydrates but in low quantities. Large quantities of vegetables have to be eaten to get a high level of carbohydrates.
Dairy products are not on the list unless you make your own cheese. Raw food dieters can drink coconut milk if they want to have milk. It doesn't have the consistency of dairy, but many claim it tastes just as good.
Drinks consist of only a few options. Water of course is a main part of the diet. You won't have to worry about getting eight glasses a day since most vegetables have a major water component to them. Fruit juices that are 100% juice can be consumed along with smoothies and the coconut milk.
It's no wonder people lose weight on the Raw Foods diet. No matter how many vegetables you eat, you won't eat enough to keep from dropping the pounds. This diet can be rather bland even with spices on the vegetables since there is little or no cooking involved.
Variations do exist on the plan. Some people add processed grains and cooked vegetables in moderation. Others add fish and possibly chicken to their diet plan. Fish can be cooked in acid like lemon juice if dieters don't want to keep close to the "raw" idea.
Participants of the Raw Foods diet receive the needed protein through nuts and legumes. For people that exercise or want some sort of variety in their eating plan, this diet can be difficult especially coming from a Western society where foods use fat to enhance the taste. Meat and potatoes are the staples of our society and changing that is no easy task.
Like other diet plans that eliminate specific types of food, the Raw Food diet can be hard to maintain. All food has some value. Even the early settlers ate meat along with their vegetables.
