At Ireland’s Raw Kitchen we believe absolutely in a holistic approach to life. We believe that just as important as a healthy diet are regular exercise, restful sleep & meditation, respect and compassion for all life on the planet and the pursuit of happiness. We consider each and every one of those elements an integral piece in the jigsaw that makes up the complete picture. 

So why raw foods and super foods?

From an ethical point of view modern intensive agricultural practices primarily in the developed world are largely proving to be damaging to the environment through their use of heavy indiscriminate machinery and harmful pesticides. Also from a nutritional standpoint the foods produced in this way can be severely lacking in nutrition and may contain traces of the chemicals used in their production. Moreover, these foods are often further processed using a plethora of additives. 

Numerous studies have shown links between links between highly processed nutrient deficient food laden with chemicals and diseases or disorders such as obesity, diabetes and cancer. It is hardly surprising then, that there has been an explosion of interest from health conscious people in natural wild foods and organically produced foods. We at Ireland’s Raw Kitchen believe that people should pro-actively take responsibility for their own health by ensuring that they get the best possible nutrition from all the foods that they eat. We strongly believe that the best way to do this is to eat natural unprocessed food the way nature intended. We believe that the processing and cooking of foods destroys many of their beneficial nutrients and enzymes. We hope that people choose the healthy option whenever possible. To that end we at Ireland’s Raw Kitchen aim to source organically certified raw foods and super foods where possible. 

Some foods, however, such as ‘wild harvested’ foods cannot be certified as organic as they have not been produced using measurable organic methods. Nonetheless we endeavour to ensure that all the foods we sell are free from agrichemicals. An example of this would be the seaweeds we harvest ourselves using traditional sustainable methods from some of the most unspoilt shores of the west coast of Ireland.

So what are Raw foods and Super foods?

Super foods are vital, nutritionally abundant foods that offer wonderful dietary and healing potential. Super foods are typically rich in beneficial phytonutrients and antioxidants. The antioxidant content in a particular food determines the ability of that food to inhibit the production of harmful free radicals which in turn cause cell damage and disease.

Raw foods also called living foods are unprocessed and uncooked foods that have never been heated to temperatures above 42°C and therefore contain more nutrients and active enzymes as they have not been destroyed by the cooking process.

The greater the amount of natural unprocessed raw foods and super foods introduced to your diet, the greater the health benefits will be. We recommend that people change their diets gradually (decreasing dependence on cooked foods and cutting out refined sugars & processed foods). Every time you add just one superfood to your diet you will reap the tremendous benefits from these vibrant living foods. Our experience is that when people start to introduce raw foods and super foods into their diet they quickly notice the benefits including increased alertness, improved digestion and a general feeling of healthy well-being and vitality. Furthermore people find that they are drawn to eat more and more raw foods and so it does not become a chore to adhere to this type of diet. So in essence once the body discovers the benefits of raw foods and super foods it starts to crave more of the healthy foods that make it feel so wonderful. Eating raw foods and superfoods is one way to ensure that you get optimum nutrition to help keep you healthy all the years of your life.
