Questions about raw food diets...?!

Question: Do raw food diets mean just eating meat and vegetables raw, or would you actually avoid things like rice and bread that have to be cooked?
Are there meats other than fish that can be (safely) eaten raw?

Raw food diets are a lot more complex than just eating raw fruits and vegetables. The idea is to avoid eating cooked food, so rice would be sprouted rather than boiled and breads would be made from sprouted grains and then heated (under 130 F) in a dehydrator.

As for meat, I wouldn't advise eating meat raw, although there are some raw foodists who do (it's very rare). If you must try it, go for organic meat, very fresh and avoid things like pork. If you search through the raw food sites, you will find some ground rules for raw meat eating. I've never done it myself.

This site will give you an idea of vegetarian and vegan raw food diets:

Otherwise, if you check out David Wolfe's work and look at raw food sites, you will get lots of ideas for recipes. My favourite raw food recipe book is Juliano's "Raw the Uncook Book" but there are many others.

Enjoy.
