3 Sub Categories of the Raw Vegan Diet
A vegan is someone who does not eat any animal or animal output (i.e. milk, eggs). A raw vegan diet is defined as a diet in which at least 75% of the time only vegan food that is never heated above a temperature higher than 115F is consumed. Although this seems like a very specialized diet there are actually further sub categories of raw veganism.
Sub Category 1 - Raw Fruitarians
Fruitarians believe that their diet should not cause the death of any living plant. This means that foods such as broccoli and lettuce are off the menu. A fruitarian a diet consists of only food that can be harvested such as seeds, fruits and nuts. Mahatma Ghandi was briefly a fruitarian. People who follow this diet need to ensure that they consume enough protein.
Sub Category 2 - Raw Sproutarians
As the name suggests Sproutarians only eat food that has sprouted. They believe that by eating this living food they are getting more of the foods life energy. Sproutarians feel that eating a germinated food is very healthy because it contains all elements that a plant embryo requires for life. Most legume, seed or grain can be sprouted.
Sub Category 3 - Raw Juicearian
Juicearians are another subset of raw veganism. A Juicearians diet consists mostly of juices from fruits and vegetables. It is very important that these juices are made fresh, store bought juice will not do.
Wheat grass shots are very popular in the Juicearian diet. Since wheat grass can live potted on a counter top it can be harvested juiced and consumed in a matter of minutes. This is done to get the largest amount of life force from the plant.
Juicearians, Sproutarians, and Fruitarians are 3 different subcategories of veganism with different methods and beliefs. Enjoy learning more about veganism and the health benefits that result from a raw diet. - 17269
