What happens when people switch to raw?
Arthur M Baker describes the healthful changes that occur when switching to raw:
- You are improving the quality of nutrients taken in. Your body will stop looking for
more and more food in its bid to get the nutrients it needs even when it has a
full stomach.
(most people who are overweight, even those who weigh just a few pounds more than they would like to be, lose weight quickly on raw food.)
- Your body will no longer waste energy flushing out toxins, or, worse still,
quarantining them into fat cells, cysts, warts, tumours, abnormal growths…
- High fibre, high water content fresh food will abolish constipation – of the bowels,
and of the cells and circulatory system. Obstructions clear and blood flow
increases to all the cells of the body (the blood is more able to deliver nutrients
and oxygen to cells).
People switching to a high-raw diet have reported the following benefits:
- Attainment (and long-term maintenance) of natural weight
