jan 1, 1890 - Raw Food Diet

Description:

The Raw Food Diet was originally introduced in the late 1800s by a doctor, Maximilian Bircher-Benner. The Raw Food Diet involves eating mostly uncooked and raw foods. This diet is mainly used by vegetarians and vegans who support the idea that essential nutrients are lost in the cooking process of foods. The elimination of cooked foods can lead to loss of essential vitamins, calcium, and absense of animal products can lead to low protien and iron.
