Raw Food Diet

Included in raw animal food diets are any foods that can be eaten raw, such as uncooked, unprocessed raw muscle-meats/organ-meats/eggs, raw dairy, and aged, raw animal foods such as century eggs, fermented meat/fish/shellfish/kefir, as well as vegetables/fruits/nuts/sprouts, but generally not raw grains, raw beans, raw soy, etc., because of digestibility and toxicity issues, and also because paleolists tend to reject Neolithic or domesticated foods. Raw foods included on such diets have not been heated at temperatures above 104 °F (40 °C). Raw animal foodists believe that foods cooked above this temperature have lost much of their nutritional value and are harmful to the body.Smoked meats are frowned upon by many raw-omnivores.Some make a distinction between hot-smoked and cold-smoked foods.
