Ingredient List and Benefits 
Next Food Revolution, Raw Food Diet

In many case-control and cohort studies, they reported the relationship between raw and cooked food to health risk and examined whether they may affect health risk differently. Review article of 28 case-control & cohort studies from 1994 to 2003, published by Columbia University, shows that cancer risk may be stronger for raw vegetables than cooked vegetables
Most of the evidence suggests that cooking food has harmful effects, as it destroys nutrients and enzymes, alters the structure and thus digestibility of food, and creates by-products that may be harmful.
| Classification | Raw Food | Cooked Food |
| Enzymes | Preserved | Destroyed by heating |
| Embryo Bud | Preserved | Mostly removed by processing |
| Chlorophyll | Mostly preserved | Destroyed by cooking |
| Dietary Fiber | Preserved | Mostly removed by processing |
| Essential Amino Acid | Preserved | Destroyed by heating |
| Vitamins | Mostly undestroyed | Most water-soluble vitamins are destroyed by heat, Fat-soluble vitamins can be destroyed at high temperature |
| Proteins | Not degenerated | Degenerated. |
| Proteins | Not degenerated | Degenerated. |
| GI status | Lower than cooked food | Higher than raw food |
