\nBeing a Vegan doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019re some kind of extremist freak the way it did say 20 years ago.\u00a0 In fact, the number of Vegans in the U.S. has been increasing every year and is slowly but surely becoming main stream, even hip<\/em> thanks to some celebrity endorsements and a growing concern for disease prevention.\u00a0 So now that Veganism has found a more acceptable place in society what has taken its place?\u00a0 Well, there will be differing opinions about this I\u2019m sure but I think one of the more popular topics is the idea of becoming a Raw Foodist. Here we\u2019ll explore some of the basics and help you consider whether or not going Raw is right for you.<\/p>\n

\"\"Why go Raw? <\/strong><\/p>\n

First of all, there are two different approaches to eating raw, one as a Vegan and the other as an Omnivore.\u00a0 A Raw Vegan diet consists of unprocessed raw plant foods that have not been heated about 115 F and typically consume organic fruit, vegetables, nuts, seeds, sprouted grains and legumes.\u00a0 A Raw Food Omnivore eats all of this plus<\/em> eggs, fish, meat and non-pasteurized and non-homogenized dairy products such as raw milk, raw kefir, raw cheese, and raw milk yogurt.<\/p>\n

The main idea is that by eating raw, the food in question does not lose the enzymes typically damaged, deformed or killed entirely in the cooking process.\u00a0 There are three different types of enzymes; metabolic, digestive and food.\u00a0 Food enzymes are vital to the body because they can help you pre-digest the food before it reaches the small intestine, thereby reducing the need of the pancreas to produce additional digestive enzymes.\u00a0 Since hundreds of thousands of reactions take place in the body at every minute, ingesting enzymes that make it easier for two proteins react together simply means less work for our body. \u00a0Raw food researchers and enthusiasts believe that putting less burden on our bodies by eating organic, uncooked, clean foods will aid in the prevention of health problems like food allergies, gas, heartburn, belching, cramping, IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) and diabetes.\u00a0 This also includes consuming foods without pesticides, additives, fungicides or those that have been genetically modified, all believed to put even more stress on the immune system, making the onset of disease more likely.<\/p>\n

Basics of the Raw Vegan Food Pantry<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are a TON of resources out there regarding how to convert your pantry, so if you want to really delve into this, then check out some of the links provided below.\u00a0 In general, here\u2019s a top 10 list of raw vegan foods (compliments of Jordin Rubin, author of The Raw Truth).<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Leafy Greens<\/li>\n
  2. Citrus Fruits<\/li>\n
  3. Sunflower, Sesame and Pumpkin Seeds<\/li>\n
  4. Avocados<\/li>\n
  5. Coconut Kefir<\/li>\n
  6. Carrots<\/li>\n
  7. Celery<\/li>\n
  8. Cultured Veggies (pickles, sauerkraut, etc.)<\/li>\n
  9. Watermelon<\/li>\n
  10. Cantaloupe<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Hard-To-Do-Without Kitchen Aids<\/strong><\/p>\n

    A few months ago, I was curious enough about going raw that I signed up for a Raw Vegan Foods 101 class.\u00a0 It was the perfect introduction to this world and I was eager to begin incorporating some of the recipes I\u2019d been exposed.\u00a0 In order to really give this way of eating a good shot you really need to have a few tools on hand, a few of which will mean a financial investment.\u00a0 Otherwise, you will end up at the mercy of restaurants and pre-packaged raw foods.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. \u00a0High-Speed Blender<\/span>:\u00a0 This type of blender is powerful and pulverizes nuts, seeds, grains, etc.\u00a0 Preparing nut mylks, smoothies, soups and smoothies is a piece of cake among other things.\u00a0 Believe me when I tell you that I really tried working around this one though since it meant spending several hundred dollars.\u00a0 I researched and read and experimented but came to the conclusion that if you are really serious about going raw and care about variety then it\u2019s a must.<\/li>\n
    2. Dehydrator:\u00a0 <\/span>This one, in my opinion, isn\u2019t as crucial but comes in very handy if you\u2019re interested in adapting a totally raw diet.\u00a0 A dehydrator is used to dry at low temperatures and simulates sun drying.<\/li>\n
    3. Food Processor:<\/span> This kitchen tool chops dry and low-moisture ingredients such as nuts and vegetables and is ultimately a big time saver but you can also chop everything by hand if you don\u2019t want to spend the money or have a limited amount of storage space.<\/li>\n
    4. Recipes, Community and Experimentation: <\/span>This is the fun part (mostly).\u00a0 Trying new recipes and experimenting means success but also at times failure.\u00a0 You\u2019re not going to nail it every time, so be prepared for that and embrace the process.\u00a0 Joining community forums online, attending food preparation classes, etc. will help you tremendously.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      It Doesn\u2019t Have To Be Complicated\u2026all the time.<\/strong><\/p>\n

      Simply put, an apple is raw my friend; a beautiful, whole, crispy, juicy fruit already wrapped up in its own skin and therefore highly transportable.\u00a0 I think you know what I\u2019m getting at here; incorporating raw vegan foods just makes common sense and you can do it without much of a fuss. With health in mind, food is at the very top of the list. What goes in will always do something to our bodies that will either help us or hurt us so choose raw, clean, plant-based foods as much as possible.\u00a0 Also, if cooked vegan food is your main preference, then consume enzymes from another source in order to spare your body from that task.<\/p>\n

      And if you\u2019re seriously considering the idea of adopting a totally raw vegan diet, proceed with wisdom and think about consulting a professional who can help you with your particular set of life circumstances such as wanting to reverse ill-health, feeding small children, etc.<\/p>\n

      Pluck by definition means resourceful courage so to be a Plucky person is a worth-while endeavor towards life in general but when applied to aspiring to greater health I believe the opportunities are limitless.\u00a0 So go discover your Raw Pluck!<\/em><\/p>\n
