Raw Foods And Bacteria: An Alternative View

7:50 am - February 16, 2009 | Posted By Linda in Frequently Asked Questions | 2 Comments

Whenever the man next to you coughs loudly in the train, or the girl behind you sneezes profusely in the lift, do you sometimes notice disapproving looks from the surrounding people?

Besides feeling sorry for them, we may be secretly wishing that the bacteria or germs excreted by the sick people will be blown away from our inhalation.

I myself have experienced a few occasions where dissatisfied customers told service staff off for being “sick” at the counter and “passing germs around” - once in a hotel, and others at air-line check-in counters.

Raw Food Diet : How To Keep Yourself Satisfied And Warm At Night

8:20 am - November 24, 2008 | Posted By Linda in Frequently Asked Questions | No Comments

When I first started off on the raw food journey, most of my meals were eaten straight from the fridge. As a result, I felt cold pretty easily.

In Singapore’s humid weather, it is almost impossible to store any fruits and vegetables in the open for long. Everything from the shopping trip has to be loaded into the fridge to preserve freshness.

When I returned hungry and tired from work, it was so easy to just reach into the fridge for fruits. And even when I do prepare salads with vegetables, I made the mistake of eating them before they warmed up to room temperature.

Raw Food Diet: Top 5 Raw Food Myths

5:00 am - July 24, 2008 | Posted By Linda in Frequently Asked Questions | 2 Comments

Myth No. 1
Raw Food is too strict, like a Religion
It can’t be further than the truth! Raw Food is NOT a religion & it should not be treated or cause people to behave in any of that direction. It is about a way of eating to sustain our best possible health as well as for the best of our Mother Earth. Nurturing & protecting Mother Earth is crucial for our survival because it is our natural habitat, and we are so connected to it that mankind will perish if Mother Earth gets destroyed.

There have been different views and theories in the Raw community, and there are also some groups with stronger opinions. I respect all of that, and I also respect that every individual has the right to choose his/her own pace. As long as the awareness is created, and we continue to make the information & skills available, we should allow everybody to progress at their own level. In fact, just adding more salads & vegetables will make that person’s diet healthier for that day.
