Raw veganism is a diet which combines veganism and raw foodism. It excludes all food of animal origin, and all food cooked above 48 degrees Celsius (118 degrees Fahrenheit). A raw vegan diet includes raw vegetables and fruits, nuts and nut pastes, grain and legume sprouts, seeds, plant oils, sea vegetables, herbs, and fresh juices. There are many different versions of the diet, including fruitarianism, juicearianism, and sproutarianism. Sometimes the definition of a raw vegan diet is loosened to include vegan diets with at least 75% raw foods. MotivationsIn addition to the ethics of eating meat, dairy, eggs and honey, a raw vegan may be motivated by: Health reasonsRaw vegans believe that cooking foods destroys the complex balance of micronutrients. They also believe that, in the cooking process, dangerous chemicals are produced by the heat interaction with fat, protein, and carbohydrates. Environmental reasonsSome raw vegans are concerned about deforestation and sustainability, believing the use of wood or fossil fuels for cooking is harmful to the environment. Spiritual and/or philosophical reasonsMost dedicated followers of a raw vegan diet place importance on spiritual gain. Ruthann Russo states, "The raw food movement looks at the way food, living, treatment of the earth, our treatment of each other, and our quest for physical, spiritual, and mental health all fit together.

My husband always advises a raw food diet for his patients with digestive issues, and they thrive on it. It's a CURE, not a cause. A raw food plan isn't about "superfoods" and "green smoothies," although many raw foodists consume them. It's about fruits, vegetables, juices, nuts and seeds. One caution- a raw food diet probably isn't for someone who wants to get out of the kitchen, since convenience foods and take-out are not an option, and most recipes are fairly time consuming.
