M5: my husbands boss decided to take us out to dinner. Very nice restaurant. We had a great time. But nothing raw on the menu! So I've decided to eat a regular dinner just for an experimental purpose. What the heck? Either that or risking to look like a snob, or a fanatic. I wanted to see what happens, have I missed it? Have my cravings been justified? So I ordered the best thing on the menu: filet mignon with mash and green beans. The best cut, perfectly cooked, just delicious by any standart. We waited about 40 minutes for our dinners and I was excited to take my first bite. As soon as my plate arrived..i was baffled: it all tasted weird, dead, too salty, not the right texture....i was looking for the crunchy, juicy piece of vegetable, but instead there was a glue like mashed potato next to my dead piece of beef...Green beans were the only ray of hope, but even they were drowned in butter and salt and have lost their natural flavor...I found myslef missing my raw food...the living food. On top of all I almost immediately became bloated, felt heartburn, had this unpleasant stuffed feeling, and hadf a persistent feeling as if I was undernourished.
Raw food fortifies a body, while animal and overcooked food places a burden on it, making a body work over time, depleting it of enegy and nutrients. A piece of raw vegetableis digested in 4 hrs, while red meat can take up to 3 days!!! The choice is clearer than ever to me.
