5 Risks of Raw Vegan Diet On the road to good health there are many forks. Some paths such as vegetarianism or the Mediterranean diet have considerable science supporting them.
Others such as the vegan or plant-based diet which shuns all animal products including eggs and dairy are winning converts.
And then there's a new offshoot the raw vegan diet which deems cooking to be unnatural and unhealthy.
An increasing number of celebrities most recently tennis sensation Venus williams swear by this diet as the best way to prevent
But on your road to good health the raw vegan diet would likely be a U-turn.
If you are already vegan or vegetarian you have nothing to gain and much to lose by going totally or even mostly raw.
Even doctors who prescribe and live by a vegan diet caution their patients against attempting a raw diet.
The reason? You would greatly reduce the types of foods you can eat. And you would do so in vain
because most of the raw vegan principles are based on misconceptions about human nutrition and work counter to good health. 7 Medical Myths Even Doctors Believe This article addresses five such principles that are either half true or completely false.
In raw vegan parlance cooking is killing. Many raw vegans speak of live foods versus dead foods and they aren't talking about sushi so fresh it still wiggles.
Live or uncooked foods are said to be filled with vital life energy. In this way raw veganism is an extension of the vegan appreciation for animal welfare with the added spirituality of a life force called chi or prana.
Dead or cooked foods are said to be depleted of their life energy as well as most of their nutrients.
But plants are so excess in nutrients that even this breakdown is insignificant in practical terms said John Mcdougall creator of the Mcdougall Program a vegan-friendly starch-based diet.
Ironically for the raw vegan most of the plant enzymes in raw food get destroyed anyway in the acid of the human gut.
6'Magic bullet'Cures That Don't Exist Another argument is that burning fat in this case on a raw vegan diet would release toxins from the body.
or for any vegan animals that accumulate toxins in their fat; they don't cleanse themselves with their raw plant-based diet.
when eating a raw vegan diet is a challenge; it's not inherent. Many on the diet do lose weight by consuming fewer calories.
from acids in the fruits that wear down the tooth enamel from sugar promoting decay from dried fruit (another raw vegan staple) sticking to the teeth
But there is no evidence that even given the resources to prepare a variety of raw foods daily the raw vegan diet would be more healthful than the plant-based diets promoted by Mcdougall
Vegans would have to ask themselves what the added benefit would be from going raw
Raw-only foods are natural No other animal cooks food many a raw vegan has stated. One can just as well say that no other animal combines their kale
In fact a child raised on a raw vegan diet without proper supplementation would likely develop severe neurological and growth problems due to a lack of Vitamin b12 and other nutrients.

Eat a Plant-Based Diet To stave off death by a few extra years a vegetarian diet appears to be superior to a non-vegetarian one according to results of a study of more than 73000 people published today (June 3) in the Journal of the American Medical
The study the largest of its kind compared the longevity of meat eaters to that of four types of vegetarians:
vegans who eat no animal products; lacto-ovo egetarians who consume dairy products and eggs; pesco-vegetarians who eat fish but rarely meat;
and semi-vegetarians who eat meat no more than once weekly. The winners in terms of cheating death the longest were the pesco-vegetarians followed by vegans and then the lacto-ovo-vegetarians.
The vegetarian groups on average had a 12 percent lower risk of dying over the study period compared to meat eaters.
The study participants were all members of the Seventh-Day Adventist church. Previous studies have shown that vegetarian diets are associated with decreased risk of numerous chronic diseases such as Type 2 diabetes obesity metabolic syndrome circulatory disease and hypertension.
And it's been known long that Seventh-Day Adventists with their healthy lifestyle that shuns tobacco
and espouses exercise and a plant-based diet live longer that the general population Seventh-Day Adventists in California live on average four to seven years longer than other Californians an earlier study revealed.
or the presence of a health-conscious attitude shared by many vegetarians or both that leads to healthier outcomes?
The pesco-vegetarians were 19 percent less likely to die over the study period than the meat eaters
and vegans were 15 percent less likely. Men benefited more than women from the vegetarian diet.
We can be pretty confident that the vegetarian groups fared better than the non-vegetarians
but we cannot meaningfully compare the vegetarian groups to each other Orlich told Livescience. The numbers are far too close to speculate.
We hope to be able to do that in a few years when we have more statistical power with more deaths to analyze.
The strengths of the study were demonstrated that it that vegan and other vegetarian diets are safe
and that a range of vegetarian diets from strict to somewhat lax appears to be healthier than a diet dominated by processed foods
and meats according to Dr. Robert Baron of the University of California San francisco who wrote an editorial accompanying the new findings in the journal.
I do not think that we all necessarily need to be vegans or other types of vegetarians to be told healthy Baron Livescience.
But I do think that the world would ultimately be a better place without certain industrially produced foods including beef.
which found identical death rates between vegetarians and non-vegetarians. The researchers at Loma Linda University acknowledged this in their paper
For example the Adventist vegans consumed nearly twice as much dietary fiber and Vitamin c as the European vegans.
Orlich added that even our non-vegetarians are relatively low meat consumers and relatively health conscious.
If we were comparing our vegetarian groups to the average American diet we might find more striking results.

Seniors vegans and pregnant women are especially prone to Vitamin b12 deficiency. People may not realize Vitamin b12 is missing from their diets
In general Vitamin b12 is found in animal products Sheth said so strict vegetarians and vegans must actively seek out another source of the vitamin.
In people who are making the transition to a vegan diet a Vitamin b12 deficiency may not show up for a while Sheth said.
Nutritional yeast is the best vegetarian source of Vitamin b12 Sheth said. Just 2 teaspoons (6 grams) a day of nutritional yeast should cover an adult's Vitamin b12 needs.
Additionally most multivitamins contain the daily recommended amount of Vitamin b12 and fortified cereals typically provide ample Vitamin b12.

#What Is a Vegan? A vegan is someone who abstains from eating and using animal products.
The primary motivation behind veganism is to reduce harm to all living creatures. It is compassion in action according to the American Vegan Society.
But what do vegans eat? In terms of diet vegans differ from vegetarians in that they not only don't eat meat
but also don't consume anything derived from animals including eggs dairy honey and marshmallows which contain gelatin a protein obtained from animal byproducts.
Vegans also stay away from food items that were processed using animal products. For example vegans often avoid white sugar
because some refineries use bone char (incinerated animal bones) as a filter to whiten cane sugar.
In addition to maintaining a plant-based diet vegans abstain from purchasing or wearing various clothing items made with leather wool fur or silk.
Upholstery bedding and other household items using these materials are avoided also. Vegans are usually careful about not using various products including soaps cosmetics toiletries
and cleaning solutions that were tested on animals or have related animal ingredients such as lard beeswax and lanolin (a waxy substance in sheep's wool).
People who follow the vegan diet but do not abstain from using animal products are sometimes known as dietary vegans or strict vegetarians.

#Vegetarian Diets Lower Blood pressure Best Scientists are reporting results today that might boil the blood of some people on the Atkin's and other low-carb diets:
Vegetarian diets rank as superior in reducing the risk of high blood pressure or hypertension and subsequent heart damage the study found.
The research by scientists in Japan and the United states was a meta-analysis of 39 high-quality previously conducted hypertension studies from 18 countries with a total of more than 21000 participants.
Vegetarian diets were associated on average with a 6. 9-point drop in systolic blood pressure and a 4. 7-point drop in diastolic pressure.
The DASH diet is not vegetarian but does emphasize a diet rich in vegetables and limited meat particularly red meats and luncheon meats.
One shortfall of the analysis the researchers said was that it could not distinguish among the types of vegetarian diets from strict vegan with no animal products to liberal vegetarian diets that allow eggs and dairy and the different diets'respective effects on blood pressure.
A study published last June in JAMA which looked at 73000 people found vegetarians had a lower risk of dying over a six-year period compared to meat eaters but the benefits among vegetarians varied.
Those with the lowest risk of death were the pesco-vegetarians (who eat fish) followed by vegans (who eat no meat
or any other animal products) followed by lacto-ovo-vegetarians who eat milk and eggs. The researchers of the new analysis said they hope further studies could clarify
which types of vegetarian diets are best for lowering blood pressure. Nevertheless Barnard a well-known proponent of the vegan diet said that any movement toward a plant-centric diet would bring health benefits.

Another popular progressive topic. It's to highlight the contrast between the two different diet mentalities
When i saw the title i was already expecting to see some vegetarian brainwashing post about how you need plants
As a vegetarian I'm very interested in entomophagy as odd as it sounds. I make no illusions of the massive amounts of insects that must be killed
I consume (which would likely be proportionally higher than a non-vegetarian).**as an aside:
insect mortality for vegetarians would make an interesting study) Of course the leading reservations that I have when it comes to the consumption of animal meat is the suffering of the animal
obviously there would be no purpose in keeping animals meant for food. will the vegetarians jump on board?
Now vegans have no excuse! Haha just kidding but this is an amazing technology I think we can all appreciate.
This is a bit of a deal killer for vegans or those morally opposed to killing sentient animals for food.
Even as a vegetarian I realize that animals as a food source leverage land that is not possible to efficiently cultivate.
and other wetland creatures and live longer healthier lives just by adopting a vegetarian diet.
But as a vegetarian that abstains mostly because of cruelty to animals this would become an option for me.
And many vegetarians maul their freshly plucked victims-with out slicing them up and cooking them.
along with being the staple (raw spinach leaves cabbage etc) in many vegan diets it would seem that statistical probability alone dictate that they cause the most illness due to contamination by outside factors.
p. s. another reason to become a vegetarian. I don't usually comment but felt I had to this time.

#Can Biohackers Succeed At Making'Real Vegan Cheese'?'A group of Oakland California-based biohackers believe they can create real vegan cheese.
Their goal-a cheese made with no animal products that fully evokes the real dairy deal has struck a nerve:
Real Vegan Cheese's crowdfunding campaign Indiegogo has surged many thousands of dollars past its initial funding goal of $15000.
and combine it with water vegetable butter and vegan sugar (instead of lactose) to make a milk substitute.
Finally this vegan milk can be turned into Real Vegan Cheese in the same way that normal cheese is produced from cow milk.
It will be totally vegan and lactose-free. No animal is tortured in the production of this said Counter culture Labs member Ahnon Milham who is vegan.
You don't have to worry about all the hormones and antibiotics. Real Vegan Cheese also claims their product could address future food scarcity concerns
since yeast are renewable and the processes to cheese are nearly limitless and could also curb dairy farming's impacts on the environment such as emissions of methane a greenhouse gas from cow farts and decomposing manure.
and subsequent processing that Real Vegan Cheese proposes really work? Responding to our questions via blog post Dr. Ricky the pseudonymous writer behind Science Based Cuisine stated that the campaign makes some scientifically dubious promises
because cheese-making is more complex at the molecular level than Real Vegan Cheese either knows
and vegan and whether you call yeast animals or plants. But synthetic biologist and writer Christina Agapakis a postdoctoral research fellow at University of California Los angeles thinks Real Vegan Cheese could work.
It can sometimes be tricky to express proteins at high yield in yeast she wrote in email
But notes Agapakis there is already a food on the market that's comparable to a vegan cheese:
and diversity of vegan options that are out there already. I think it's not really fair that they are using the'vegan food sucks'narrative mostly
because there's such a huge range of things out there that are actually pretty tasty l
Consequently the settlers would end up on a vegan diet more or less. They could try to cultivate insects guinea pigs
