Answers:
Yes I do!. And it is how it is!.
Fundamentally Vegetables can be categorised into three:
1!. Edible
2!. Toxic
3!. Medicinal!.
Edible are the ones human beings are required to eat in everyday life!. We have not been born with couldrons!. Those are our inventions!.
What we were designed to eat was what existed on the surface of the earth!. A piece of copper is alien to the body!. A piece of mango tree is alien to the body but a copper and mango and mango trees are required for the body!. I shall later on tell you how!.
Edible vegetables have a great quality!. The vegetables contains each items of requirement for the body like copper, zince, iron, magnesium, calcium, carbon, sodium, potassium etc!. etc!. in such a minute quantity that the body is rejuvenated and made healthy much faster than eating a whole lot of mouth full of copper or zinc or iron!. The secret of health is supply of nutrients in small quantities!. The secret of recovery from disease is supply of medicine in small quantities or doses!. The secret of death is supply of poison in small quantities!. You need not take a full bottle of poison to die, a pin prick is enough!. If not they are not poisons but just toxic material and has to be consumed in large quantities to die!.
So talking about the three fundamentals!. The Edible food should be eaten raw to get the full benefits!. If a real experiment is to be done, it should be a child brought up right from the childhood on raw edible vegetables!. Unless it has toxic pesticides and other poisons attached to it, the child will never fall sick througout his life!. Our ancestors have no doubt been much more healthier than ourselves!. The amount of sickness in the ancient days were countable on fingers!. Not that they have no knowledge of the possible sickness!. The ancient books of Ayurveda have many kinds of sickness described in it with remedies!.
The second ones are toxic: This kind of food are not to be eaten by the human beings except for their specific usages!. We can see that toxic vegetables and vegetations are mostly reactionery to human and animate contact!. Mostly, these vegetations keep themselves away from the human beings and animals and makes no secret of their capacity to give discomfort in the guise of protection from attacks, but it is a natural way the other animal kingdom keep away from it and save themselves from fatality!. Unfortunately these toxic vegetations are used in maximum quantity by the present day medicine system in an unpotentised crude form in which they are virulent and toxic!. Quoting Wkpedia: en!.wikipedia!.org/wiki/Alkaloid - 46k let me show you few of the medicines in use through these toxic alkaloids!.

Each one of these medicines are supposed to be treated in various ways so that its toxicity is removed and thus its side effects!. Homeopathy had shown us one way of doing it by potentisation!. Unfortunately, instead of trying to find out various other ways by which this medicine is made devoid of its toxicity and their side effects, we continue to use them in their material toxic forms which are harmful not only in this life but for the generations to come in fhe form of " iatrogenic chronic disease" as I may call it as there is not much research or thought given to this aspect till now, and therefore no name!. I would suggest this as one of the major causes for many many of the autistic and other cerebral diseases and pituitary born disorders, Thalamassia born disorders etc!. etc!. which are haunting the the present human generation!.
Some call homeo medicines a placebo and shun it!. But they are the one who jump first into answering a person asking for homeo medicines for cure!. If homeo medicines are placebos why are they so scared of homeo medicines!. If someone is cured by drinking plain water as the homeo medicine put in it is a placebo, why should anybody be so scared to advise them not to do it!. It is because those who call it a placebo jolly well knows that it is the right way of preparation of the medicines from toxic substances and it is capable of curing what a material dose of an extract of the same medicine cannot cure!. Let us take for example the Nux Vomica!. Anyone who has used in homeopathic potencies knows the wonders it can do in curing as a greatest of all polychrests!. And look at the conventional medicines from Strychnos nux-vomica alkaloids: strychnine, brucine
group!. Just one google as to its side effects would make ones eyes bulge!. It does not take much time to trace the effects and side effects of these medicines to the next generation!.
The last is poisonous which is supposed to be never used unless the technology is known to use!. The technology is to take a thorn with a thorn, to remove poison with poison, Most of the poisons including Cobra poison and Potassium Cyanide are potentised to homeopathic medicines with outstanding benefits!. These are medicines which can cure what is not curable other wise!. Those are the extraordinary conditions where it should be resorted!.
And the last of the vegetation which not available knowledge now to the humanity is the Elixir of Life which was used by Hanuman and Lord Rama in the Tretha Yug to bring the Dead Lakshman back to life!.
The edible food items need not be boiled or burned for eating!. To my mind "To kill the germs by heating is as nonsensical as germs entering the body and attacking" When we boil anything at 100 degree centigrade, all the good bacteria also dies alongwith the bad bacteria as you may call it!. What makes our body healthy and immune against invaders!? It is the nutrients which are exhuberent with life inside any vegetation!. Its cells which have life, the bacterias in them which are life giving!. That is what gives fuel to the life of human life!. When they are all killed what we eat are just dead vegetables, which is incapable of interacting with their counterparts in the body!. Water interacts with water in the body, air interacts with air in the body, fire(sun) interacts with the fire (digestive and heat) inside the body, whatever prevailing on earth interacts with the Earth (i!.e!.flesh, bone and circulatory system) in the body, the abstract things on earth like smells, sounds etc!. interacts with the Ether in the body which is mind, memory, thoughts, emotions, intelligence, consciousness and the like!. If you eat something without its flavour, that vegetable or fruit is incapable of interaction with the abstract things which I mentioned above inside the body!. One should remember that our body is a microcosm, and outside world is a macrocosm!. Whatever outside is inside the body and whatever inside is outside the body and they communicate with each other constantly, whether you believe it or not whether you know it or not, whether you are conscious of it or not!.
If alive (vegetables with life in it) which is possible only if they are raw, is eaten, the body life force will be so powerful that it will never fall sick, it will have all its faculties developed and further new faculties formed like 6th seventh and ESPs etc!. and even if it falls sick will have the capacity to cure itself naturally and quickly and will be at harmony with itself and its surroundings and homeostasis prevails without conflict with surroundings!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Didn't work for me!. I'm vegan and though I can't claim to have eaten a mainly raw diet, I always ate a lot of raw food!. And I was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer at the age of 50, after spending most of my life as a vegetarian (for many years eating minimum dairy) and several years as a vegan!.
So no, there are no such guarantees; cancer for one is a largely random disease that affects vegans, vegetarians and meat-eaters alike!. Nobody knows the causes of most cancers!. A very few types of cancer have a diet high in red and processed meat as a POSSIBLE risk factor - it's not conclusively shown that there's a link and a risk factor is not a cause!. Only for colorectal cancers is there strong evidence that a diet high in red and processed meats is a definite risk factor!.
It's nonsense to suggest, as someone seems to be doing here, that 'going raw' will reverse the diseases and conditions you mention!. Dangerous nonsense too!.
It's received wisdom that the rates of the diseases you mention are increasing; in the case of many cancers, the numbers are decreasing or showing no change!.
We don't do ourselves any favours as veg*ns when we make exaggerated, unsubstantiated claims for the health benefits of the diet!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No, not necessarily!.
Most of that which you have mentioned are congenital, so diet won't necessarily eradicate the possibility of your having one of those issues if they are in your genes!. (Genetic predisposition)!.
But eating healthy does have it's benefits, as i am sure that you know!.
And a healthy diet can help to avoid some of those issues, as most times heredity + diet plays a factor in the onset of those issues, at least heart attacks and a few others!.
Cancer cannot be contracted by poor diet; neither can strokes, as that is a brain issue; But such things as IBS, indigestion and the others, well those are and can be relative to diet!. Though, some people have a negative reaction physically to raw plant based foods, so i think that it mostly depends on heredity!. Some people are lactose intolerant, naturally; whereas others are not!. So you wouldn't suggest the same nutritional info for both parties!.
Eating healthy has it's benefits, but other lifestyle modifications are necessary also, to live a "healthy life" such as exercise and refraining from putting carcinogens and poisons into your body!.
It's all a matter of temperment, and having a well-balanced and healthy diet, not necessarily a matter of eating only raw plant based foods!.
If you aren't sure, just take a multi-vitamin; as that will make up for whatever nutrients that you lack!.

Definitely!.
A balanced vegan diet, for a start, cuts down the chance of getting various cancers, heart and circulatory problems, diabetes, digestive and respiratory complaints!. It is low in saturated fat and cholesterol, lower in carcinogens and higher in lots of vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants and other good things!.
Around 70% of the goodness of food is destroyed when it is heated, and toxins can even be created as a by-product of heating, so make that vegan diet raw and it's even better!.
I've been eating much more raw food lately and I feel full of energy because of it!. I had some stomach problems before (mild IBS, had it for years) but I've hardly had any discomfort since I've been eating mostly raw!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Nope!. The diseases you mentioned are mostly congenital or inherited meaning you are predisposed to get them whether you live healthy or not!. Heart attacks risk can easily be reduced by a balanced diet whether omnivorous, vegetarian, vegan, or as you suggest, raw vegan and (even moderate) exercise!. Indigestion and constipation are mainly the result of plain bad eating habits!. And of course there are environmental factors such as pollution to consider!.
Cooking does not remove 70% of nutrients!. That's a biased myth!. Only extreme high cooking temps do that and most people don't burn their food down to carbon or boil it to mush!. And even boiling and eating the resulting broth gets you most of the nutrients supposedly lost in cooking!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Hi Minx,
the human digestive and metabolic systems are perfectly designed to use grains and vegetables as fuel for the human body!. As Zucchini!.!.!. states, however, raw whole grains are, mostly, not a good idea and some are so hard raw that they are impossible to chew!. The 70% loss that Rivers mentions, however, is not due to cooking per se but to the TYPE of cooking!. Cooking vegetable in lots of water on an electrical cooker can, indeed, reduce the nutritional value by more than half!. Steaming, i!.e!. just enough water in the cooking pot so that all of it has evaporated by the time that the vegetables are done and this on a gas cooker loses no more than 10%!. Cooking on a wood fire can even ADD nutritional value!
A raw diet can be a very useful detoxification, especially if you've eaten any meat or cow dairy during the last three years!. Long-term, however, it can seriously deplete your mineral reserves!. As with all things, balance is the way that works; the middle way as espoused by the Buddha, Gautama not just in thinking but in eating as well!.
I've been upon this planet this time for a few years longer than Zucchini!.!.!. but do not have any aches and pains!. This is not merely because of my macrobiotic diet but also due to Ashtanga Yoga!. Do look into this - you'll be doing yourself a VERY great favour!.
Blessed be

When I die I want to make sure everything is totally stuffed, hey what's the point of being healthy and dying!?
Do you know that the man and woman that hold the record for living the longest were both smokers!?
And have a look at Newman, 83 and he died of lung cancer after being a chain smoker all his life!.
83, see that number, geez, people half his age who don't smoke die!.
Now, my cousin wasn't exactly a health freak but he ate all the "right" foods, never smoked, never drank alcohol, kept himself in great nick physically!. Yep, a picture of health and virtue, dropped dead at 33!.
Hey, it's like buying a ticket in a lottery, maybe you've bought a winning ticket, maybe not!.
I tell you what I've learned, nothing and I mean nothing will beat having a happy outlook, you keep the brain in good nick and keep yourself happy and don't worry, don't stress and you'll be healthier than those sour pusses and worry warts!.!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes, I see such a difference in my life from the foods I eat & while I don't eat a complete raw food diet I can see just eating a little is so much better than none so I can only imagine how great I would feel if I could go to a complete raw food diet!.!.!.I eat small meals all day for diabetes!.!.!.I will eat sausage biscuits in the morning & I don't know what else I can have!. I need so much protein though so I just don't have a plan or would love to eat all raw food!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Hi Minx!! I do agree, although of course many foods MUST be processed and/or cooked before eating, such as legumes, grains, potatoes, and various others!. And some foods actually increase in nutritional value when cooked!.
However I certainly feel a lot better both mentally & physically when I eat mostly raw veg!. I'm not rigid about it, but I actually enjoy my veggies more when I eat them raw, such as cauliflower, fennel, carrots, tomatoes, peas of various kinds, etc!. If I can eat it raw, I do!.
At 52 I don't have heart disease, diabetes, or cancer, although I can't claim to be free of aches and pains!
And I'm certainly hoping to live a long life - I've got so much to do!Www@FoodAQ@Com
