I'm 57 and have been eating raw food for 6 years and usually eat almost all raw with little to no cooked food. For example, I'm not convinced the handful of nuts I eat are raw (the package doesn't say one way or the other), or that rice vinegar or olives are raw. Anyway, lately I've been craving and giving into some cooked food. It's like I'm craving a drug and must have it. Going back to eating cooked food regularly isn't an option for me because I don't want some diseases I had to return.

I really want to go back to eating high raw again and get over this period of weekly relapse. So I was wondering if anyone else had experienced this and how you got past it. Also, what suggestions do you have to curb cravings?

Thank you for any input and help.
