Hey everyone! Here is a youtube video you might enjoy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-yiUG0-Jfk
Raw Foods & Chinese Medicine Can Co-Exist, Episode 351
It's a talk with Matt Monarch about how to go succeed with raw foodism following the principles of TCM. It confirms what many of us know already, but still it's nice to hear from an expert.
Many of us go to acupuncturists who advise against raw foods out of fear that it cools the body and therefore harms the body's digestive fire, and this is partly true for some bodies, meaning that many bodies aren't cut out for eating cold fruit 365 days a year. However, you can be healthy on a raw food diet! Just remember to eat your leafy greens and especially during wintertime, make sure your diet includes warming spices such as ginger and cayenne.
