How Raw Foods Invigorate The BloodstreamCooking food will alter its calcium-phosphorous content. Also, it will dissolve minerals such as iron (the essential part of hemoglobin which carries oxygen to the tissues, carbon dioxide to the lungs, and nourishment to the endocrine glands), iodine (needed to keep the thyroid in good working condition; a deficiency of this mineral may cause sluggish metabolism, lowered metabolism, and constant tiredness), and copper (needed to build a nourishing and rich bloodstream and also to maintain the normal strength of the nerves). How Raw Foods May Speed Up The Healing ProcessThe delicate Vitamin C and also K (known as the antihemorrhage vitamin) are dissolved, oxidated, and destroyed by cooking. These vitamins are found in most citrus fruits, berries, tomatoes, coconut, apples, pears, and especially in the papaya. Cooking reduces and "washes off" these precious vitamins that your body need to create fibrin, the ingredient that mends and heals tissues during the healing process. |
