Special Raw Food Demonstration Featuring Raw Food Chef And Sun Chlorella

TORRANCE, Calif. - Jan. 27, 2015 - PRLog -- Increasingly people are turning to raw foods to enjoy clearer skin, increased energy, less brain fog and smaller waists. To help more people enjoy the benefits of raw foods, Sun Chlorella USA is pleased to announce a special raw foods event. The event is a live "non-cooking" demonstration, featuring raw foods chef, Steve Factor. The demonstration will occur January 29^th at the Whole Foods Market on 3^rd and Fairfax, from 5-6 PM.

“This growing enthusiasm for fresh fruits and vegetables is well-founded," notes Dr. Michael E. Rosenbaum, MD, a pioneer in integrative medicine, "A meta-analysis of several studies published in the medical journal, BMJ, in 2014 showed that with each additional serving of fruits and vegetables, your risk for all disease goes down by 5%. So if you add 4 more servings of fruits and vegetables to your day, your risk can go down by as much as 20%!”

And according to a groundbreaking study published in 2011 that involved 27,000 people, increasing one’s intake of raw fruits and veggies can even lower the risk for heart disease at the genetic level!

As raw foods expert, Steve Factor, explains on his website, increasing the amount of raw fruits and vegetables in one's diet can bring in energizing phytonutrients sequestered in plants through photosynthesis. At the same time, people who eat raw foods will be replacing overly processed foods with healthier alternatives. And consequently reducing the amount of toxins brought into the body with every meal.

“Many phytonutrients (unique nutrients found in plants) are heat sensitive and are lost by cooking,” notes Dr. Rosenbaum. “For example, raw fruits and vegetables contain higher amounts of vitamin C, a vitamin that has been associated with stronger immunity and a healthier heart. Cooking tomatoes for just 2 minutes reduces their vitamin C content by 10%. And raw cruciferous vegetables – like broccoli and kale – have higher amounts of the enzyme, myrosinase, that helps your body break down compounds in broccoli to produce sulforophane. This special sulfur compound has been linked to boosting your body’s detox system and fighting cancer.”

However, while there are some clear benefits to eating more raw fruits and vegetables, an exclusively raw food diet has some limitations and drawbacks.

Some important phytonutrients increase in availability when cooked like the beta-carotene in carrots. And while getting more fruits and vegetables can help with heart health, depending on them alone can put people at a greater risk for cognitive problems and cardiovascular disease. Studies have linked low levels of vitamin B12, found primarily in animal products, to an increased risk for heart disease. B12 plays a critical role in heart health, impacting how blood clots and how flexible arteries are.

In addition, one study tracking elderly participants over a 5-year period found that the participants who ate no animal products were 6 times more likely to experience brain shrinkage and had the most dramatic brain shrinkage within the group. Researchers attributed this problem to B12 deficiency.

“However, with strategic eating, you don’t have to run this risk,” points out Dr. Rosenbaum. “While most dietary B12 is only found in animal products, Mother Nature has provided a few alternatives. Chlorella is one of them. Two recent studies have confirmed that chlorella provides the right form of B12 for our bodies. And high levels of chlorella consumption can keep B12 blood levels within the normal range even if you maintain a vegan diet.”
