It is believed that the human body has the capacity to self heal itself. This is something which God himself engineered into our being. Modern medicine revolves around a pill or some sort of medication for every kind of illness. Its time to let the food you eat be the medicine your body needs for healing.

How much nutritional value are you getting from food.
Soils are used and used again and again, and as a result the nutrients in the soil are depleted. When the soil is deficient in nutrients, the food we also eat will be deficient. (that why it has been said that the soil should be allowed to rest for 7 years before using it for planting again).

When the soil is deficient, the crops are also deficient and thereby become weakened, resulting in them loosing their defensive system, thereby becoming vulnerable for bugs to attack and infect them with diseases. When this happens crops don’t grow or they die before their time. The chemical companies then sell the farmers pesticides, fungicides and growth stimulants etc to help the plants. So therefore even if we eat just eat commercial vegetarian food we are still eating deficient toxic food.

Enzymes
Studies show that even if you lightly steam your food, you will loose all of the food enzymes in it. Enzymes regulate nearly all the biochemical reactions that occur within the human body. Enzymes turn the food we eat into energy and unlock this energy for use in the body. The presence and strength of enzymes can be determined by improved blood and immune system functioning.

Enzymes in the body are used for metabolic action and digestive actions. Every organ, every tissue and every cell in our body depends on metabolic enzymes for survival. Digestive enzymes are necessary, they help to break food down into nutrients and waste and allow for the absorption of food nutrients into the blood steam. Digestive enzyme, cellulose is missing because the human body can not produce it, whereas it is very necessary for the proper digestion of fiber and can only be obtained through the raw food that we eat.

COOKED FOOD IS POISION TO THE BODY
The early man (Adam and Eve) never ate cooked food. Cooked food was not meant to be part of a human beings dietary requirements.

Cooked food takes the body through a process called digestive LEUCOCYTOSIS or LEUKOCYTOSIS (white blood cell reaction) this is where your system treats cooked and processed foods as toxin. This is not a good thing for your body to do to food that is supposed to provide nutrients.

A Swiss Doctor, called Dr Paul Kouchakoff researched and proved that if you eat a diet that was cooked or processed food, your body will react to it as if it were being invaded by a foreign organism. Therefore it is better to eat raw food than cooked food. Read more about in by going to: http://www.rawfoodinfo.com/articles/art_leukocytosisandcooked.html
