Raw healthy, organic foods  come packed with natural energy-boosting vitamins and minerals.

In contrast, fast foods are loaded with fat, refined sugars and high salt. They use white bread and rolls, which means they’ve used white processed flour, with very few nutrients in them.

How do you feel after a Big Mac and french fries? A bit sleepy, perhaps? Processed foods, with their high fat content are harder to digest. They take an enormous amount of the body’s energy to consume. 

Junk foods also contain high levels of adder sugar.  Energy and mood swings  can be caused by rapidly fluctuating blood sugar (glucose) levels. Cutting down on processed foods will reduce your intake of refined sugar and keep your energy levels consistent throughout the day.

When you start eating a raw food diet, you eliminate those high fat, processed, high-sodium foods.

Try eating raw foods throughout the day. If you go to work every day, take carrots, apples, grapes or dried fruit, nuts or seeds with you to munch on. Eating raw foods periodically throughout the day also keeps your metabolism humming along, and keeps your blood sugar at steady levels.  

When your body’s energy isn’t used up digesting all that junk food, it’s available for you and the result is increased energy levels – for work, play, love or exercise.
