Sun, 21 Feb 2010 01:08:16 GMT http://www.raw-food-health.com/Raw-food-Diet-blog.html#Fresh-Juices-Good-or-Bad? Although drinking fresh juice is undoubtedly highly beneficial to someone eating a cooked diet, I have my suspicions about its place in a raw food diet. The longer I eat a diet of raw foods, the more I realize our bodies need whole foods. Every vegetable and fruit is in the exact form that nature intended. These foods have all the fiber and nutrients that our bodies need in just the right amount. So, why fool around with something so perfect? Why do we cook, dehydrate, extract, pasteurize, freeze, and homogenize foods? Of course, some of these methods make foods more interesting and if you can practice moderation and it helps you to eat healthy foods then so be it, but I have noticed that the longer I eat a raw food diet the more sensitive my body has become, which leads me to the topic of juice. I LOVE orange juice. I ate very very little fruit on my previous cooked foods diet because I thought too much sugar was bad and would cause me to gain weight. After learning that quite the opposite is true I was liberated and my OJ frenzy began. I was drinking up to a gallon a day of Whole Foods "fresh squeezed" OJ, which I recently learned has to have some degree of pasteurization or preservatives because truly unfooled-around-with OJ only lasts 3 days tops and this OJ keeps for over a week. After this big let down I settled for making my own with a citrus press. However, my next big let down came when I was listening to an audio tape. You know the white stuff coating an orange after you peel it? Well you don't get that when you juice with a citrus press. You get all sugar, albeit with some pulp, but this is not good for blood sugar. This could be solved by using a juicer and adding back in the pulp or just blending the oranges. This is crucial for anyone who suffers from hypoglycemia or similar symptoms. You absolutely need fiber to slow the absorption of sugar and prevent blood sugar issues. There has been a big difference in my mental clarity after giving up juices and eating foods in their whole state. I've now taken to eating the oranges as they are, as nature intended.

Most people have been fed the misinformation that their bodies run on protein and they must consume tons of it. Yet, our muscles and every single cell runs on sugar. However, all sugar is not created equal. White sugar is not going to give your body what it needs. Your body needs the simple sugars found in fruit. The body only uses protein and fat for fuel in the absence of these sugars and only does so by converting these nutrients into carbs. Even athletes and bodybuilders need to be eating more fruit instead of more protein. The only reason an athlete would need more protein is if they are not taking in enough carbohydrates from fruit. In the link that follows Dr. Graham (one of the most knowledgeable leaders in the raw food movement in my opinion) debunks the protein myth with a combination of logic and science.
