Raw Foods For Health

I am back! I ate a lot more cooked meals than usual while I was away and I certainly noticed the difference. There was actually no fresh produce in Jindabyne for a few days during our stay due to floods. We are in a similar situation here now as the Rocklea markets in Brisbane went under water. My wife is off to do the weekly shopping at the Miami organic markets here, but there will be a big shortage of produce there as we know for a fact that one of the larger stall holders lost all their crops in northern NSW. The markets organiser gets all his food from the Rocklea Markets, so he will have nothing. The Lockyer Valley between Ipswich and Toowoomba which was hit worst by the flash flooding was a big produce growing area for South East QLD as well. It is often referred to as "South East Queensland’s Salad Bowl"! Staying high raw vegan and organic is going to be a challenge for a few months and very expensive due to produce prices going through the roof. Time to get my garden going here again! Our friends with the raw cafe in Burleigh Heads had to go to woolies for coconuts. He filled a trolley with them and got some seriously strange looks from people he said!

You aere wrong, vaku. Our digestive track is made to absorb a lot of vitamins and minerals from raw veggies. It´s the fiber that we don´t absorb,but that is also good for our health. We are omnivorous, just like pigs. Take care!
