The raw food diet is one of the healthy crash diets to lose weight fast. In this diet plan, you are expected to eat only raw, fresh uncooked food and avoid all processed ones. Fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, milk, buttermilk, yogurt, organic foods, beans, etc. are some of the foods that you can include in the raw food diet. As beverages, you can have tea, coffee, herbal tea, green tea and plain drinking water.

The reason running isn’t the best at burning fat is because it literally only burns fat whilst you’re doing your excersize, where as doing excersize designed to spark the afterburn effect will burn calories for upto 48 hours after you stop doing the excersize as your metabolism will be through the roof. 😉 You might even find that you need to eat MORE then you normally do because you are burning so much off! (this really does depend on how hard you’re training and how much you already eat ofc)

so what type(s) of exercise would have ‘the afterburn’ effect?

i saw some programme that said we get a lot of nutrition from food when its cooked that you don’t get when its raw. also cooking food reduces water content so like with spinach say, you’ll get more nutrition in a sitting if you cook it as you’ll get a much better ratio of plant matter to water. possibly our bodies are much more adapted to eating a balance of cooked and raw food, and a lot of people who suddenly go onto a raw food diet have nasty symptoms weening themselves on. also raw food diets are often showcased by seemingly hysterical clique american hippies who i admire they’re enthusiasm but thats about all.

Excess post-exercise oxygen consumption – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

That’s “The After Burn Effect” or as it’s more formally called “EPOC” or “Excess post-exercise oxygen consumption”.

There’s references on that page to scientific studies held researching it and it’s effects.

The best exercises to activate it are like I said “Burst Cardio” or “HIIT” as it’s better known (High Intensity Interval Training) and Compound weight lifting.

There are some foods what you can eat raw, and some what need to be cooked (or at least pasteurized) for you to get the full benefits from. You can’t eat raw eggs as there’s an enzyme in the whites what stops your body up taking biotin (vit b7) what causes a number of problems (6 Signs of Biotin Deficiency / Nutrition / Vitamins and Minerals). You have to at least pasteurize it to get rid of the enzyme, and of course you have the risk of salmonella poisoning as well don’t.

Some things are better eaten raw though as opposed to cooked, like egg whites would be if there was no salmonella and they didn’t have that enzyme in them. This is why pastured egg whites are what body builders will put in there protein shakes. There are just as many things what really want to be cooked though. Cow’s milk, for example, has longer protein strands in them what we can digest properly (cows have 4 stomachs to do this). We need to heat up milk in order to start breaking down the proteins to make them more available for us to digest. (thanks Raj for the info on the milk proteins :))

We’ve evolved past the stage of eating raw meats and our guts/immune system can’t really handle it for some meats/vegetables. You can gradually get used to eating stuff like that but as know hope says, it can make you quite ill when you first start doing it.
