non cooking is healthy cooking?


Posted by Shez B.

Since eating more raw food, I have been feeling soooooo good. I am not going totally raw, but a couple of nights a week totally raw, and including raw food at every meal is my new diet. I am really feeling brighter. So perhaps no cooking is healthy cooking.

I realize you can cook out the vitamins in veggies, but what other foods are you eating uncooked-- meat? I have never heard of feeling better from eating uncooked food, but I would love to hear more (I hate to cook! :-)).
I have friends who eat nothing but raw food. They get their protein in many forms such as sushi, sprouted nuts or soaked nuts. Raw eggs whipped in lemon juice. I eat raw every day but will never to completely raw because I love cooked food once in awhile. But, I have tasted some pretty tasty raw food.
I try to eat raw veggies, sashimi, even beef carpacchio! However, there are some veggies like tomatos, that release more lycopene when cooked. Heinz Ketchup loves this fact. Also, some forms of cooking like overcooking/char-grilling/blackening have been linked to cancer.
Raw food is definitely less time-consuming to prepare! ;-) And this is especially good news for those who either are cooking-challenged, have limited time to prepare food, or are just trying to eat healthier! 8-)

Salmon is delicious, healthy, and oh-so-easy to prepare. Here's what you need to know about shopping for it: Wild salmon is deep red in color and has a richer taste. Farmed salmon is pinker, milder and much less costly. If you can buy wild salmon, definitely opt for it.
