LIVING FOODS

God news we would need proper tools and materials as caretakers and stewards of our own bodies, and that is why he gave us every seed and plants.

   Living plant food is the original source of nutrition for humankind and for all other life. Fresh vegetable such as carrot, sprouts, leafy greens, potatoes, pepper, onions, cabbage, cucumbers, yams and a host of other raw and uncooked produce are the greatest source of all vitamins. Oily foods such as nuts, seeds, olives, avocados, and coconuts are among the rich, healthy  fats that are important to a healthy diet. Flax oil provide a good supply of omega3. But remember, once heated, the healthy fats in these items become"trans" fats ( trans fatty acid) and can become carcinogenic in nature. Living fruits can be sweet, mangoes and cherries, for example or non sweet, cucumbers, peppers, and tomatoes.

    Juices made from fresh vegetables are also living foods. The nutrients in fresh juices are full of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and enzymes. The best advantage of drinking fresh vegetable juice, rather than eating the whole vegetable, is that the fiber has been removed, and thus we get more nutrition ti the cellular level of our bodies much quicker. Less energy is expended in assimilating it because our bodies aren't trying to separate the juice from fiber (which is not absorbed by the whole body but expelled as waste).

   Freshly squeezed juice from vegetables is a super food. It is the most important part of a nutrient-dense, living, food pyramid. Juice from a cartoon, bottle, or can, however, is processed, heated, and stored, which depletes the vitamins and enzymes content. Bottled and canned juice that is 100 percent juice isn't particularly bad for you, but if pasteurized it is completely dead and doesn't  have anywhere near the great benefit of freshly extracted juices. Any beverages that contain 10 percent or less juice (with the rest being water or sweetener) falls into the dead, dead, dead. Not even natural flavoring gives these drinks any redeeming healthy value.
