Raw Food Bodybuilding Diet - Cooked vs Raw

By: JessicaT

Since the 1950's, there has been a debate among those in the physical culture regarding cooked vs. raw food diets. Among natural bodybuilders, this debate still goes on. This argument is focused mainly on the source of protein coming from a meat source.

Raw bodybuilders have found and proven that you can build a stronger body with natural protein sources such as Hemp Seed Powder and Wheat Grass, which are both rich in protein and iron.

There are immeasurable advantages of a raw food diet for a natural bodybuilder. A raw food diet provides more lifting strength and you are able to have less rest time between sets. Vital nutrients such as enzymes, minerals and vitamins have been depleted from the foods through the cooking process.

You look at the strongest animals such as the gorilla, hippo, rhino, elephant, and they are all consumers of raw food. How do these animals build such strong muscles and incredible strength without a diet of meat and cooked foods?

The animals listed are all on 100 percent raw food diets. A diet of raw foods of organic fruits, green leafy vegetables, seeds and nuts can and will help you build a well defined body of lean muscle.

Cooked foods are known to clog the body's digestive system which puts a strain and saps energy from other parts of your body. Building a strong, sculpted body with a raw food diet takes a strong mind with a strong will to succeed. Cooked foods blow up, or give an inflated look to muscles that only last for a temporary time. A foundation needs to be built for muscle to grow, and this can only be done with all natural proteins and carbs that are found in raw, uncooked foods.

Just observing the nutrients in fruit alone is enough to convince you of the benefits and nutrients to your body. Botanical fruits are what I am referring to when I speak of fruits. Bontanical fruit is seeded fruit that regenerates within itself to create more fruit. These are fruits such as cucumbers, red and green peppers, squash, avocados, tomatoes and many more.

Continue your research on this website on the benefits and health advantages of a raw food diet versus a cooked food diet for your bodybuilding regime. It is important to keep a journal and document what you are eating and how you feel.

You will see that you will have lasting, healthy results that will last much longer with a natural foundation.
