Nature Foods

Fruits and vegetables that retain color and crunch offer highest food value, and are best assimilated within an empty stomach. Be aware that different fresh foods may release different enzymes, so eating them separately whenever possible prevents undue strain on the digestive system. To make the most of healing properties, nature foods should be consumed within the hour of cutting them open. Since most fruits (including acidic ones) turn alkaline when they enter the body, their nutrient value is immediately absorbed into the system, as long as there is no traffic jam of unhealthy remnants blocking the system.
