At first glance, both diets seem almost the same - both are based on raw plant foods. But if you look deeper, there are fundamental differences that determine the impact on health and lifestyle
What do FE and CE have in common?
🤝 Both diets exclude heat treatment and focus on natural plant foods
🤝 They strive to return a person to the natural foundations of nutrition and are considered a step towards cleansing the body and improving well-being
RAW FOOD IS WIDENER, BUT NOT ALWAYS EASIER
Allows a wide range of products - fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, sprouts, herbs, oils, complex raw food dishes. On the one hand, there are many raw and healthy components, on the other hand, there is a burden on digestion due to heavy and combined dishes
Common difficulties with CE:
- excess of hard-to-digest nuts and seeds
- antinutrients and inhibitors from sprouts and greens
- bias towards high-fat and complex recipes (for example, raw food cakes or bread)
In practice, there are two types of CE - light and fruity with a predominance of fruits and a minimum amount of fat, and heavy and complex, when the diet is rich in nuts, seeds and oils
FRUIT EATING - A NARROW BUT CLEAN TRAJECTORY
FE is limited to only easily digestible fruits that do not harm the body
- minimum burden on digestion
- rapid energy recovery
- maximum hydration and cleansing
Let's summarize results
✔️ General. Both approaches are based on raw plant food and exclude heat treatment
❌ Miscellaneous. FE is the lightest and most physiological model of SE, while classic raw food leaves room for heavy and fat-rich dishes
What is closer to you?
Raw food is already a serious step towards nature. Refusal of heat treatment is not just a change in diet, but an internal challenge that requires effort and rethinking habits. This is the path of those who are ready to reconsider the basics of nutrition and become closer to live food
Fruit eating is the next step, where only the simplest and purest remains. Eating fruits makes the diet light and as natural as possible for the body
But both paths are a step beyond the ordinary. This is about choosing awareness and the desire to go deeper into harmony with nature and yourself
