If that title seems a little loud it’s because I’ve had a good old energy drink this morning. Gotta love how my body processes natural sugars now. I don’t need caffeine. Caffeine probably wouldn’t work as well as a good old drink with some melons or oranges. This morning my drink consisted of half a cantaloupe and a quarter of a water melon broken up in the blender. It was beautiful.
That drink fueled me on high speed in the garden for about an hour and a half before the rain started. I think this is why us raw vegans feel so great. There was no way before I started this that half a cantaloupe and a quarter of a watermelon would have done anything nice for my body. It probably would have made me sick and sent me straight to the bathroom. Why does it affect me so differently now? I’m pretty sure it’s because I haven’t had refined sugar since I started this journey. I also haven’t had caffeine for just as long except for two cups of coffee that were offered in a social setting but I drank them black and really didn’t enjoy them lol. All of my food is natural and easily digestible. I don’t have anything stuck that would move as soon as a large amount of fiber is introduced. (I know, ewwww)
The nutrients of the food that I eat are absorbed more effectively. I don’t heat my food over 115 degrees Fahrenheit (46 degrees Celsius). Cooking food above that temperature kills the natural enzymes in the food that help you digest it. That’s why I say that my food is living. When you cook something your body has to put energy into breaking down the food that you eat. When you eat it raw it takes less energy which gives you more energy to do other things. Like enjoy life…
