What's THE nutrient that gives organic fruits and vegetables that staying power? That would be none other than humble fiber. So, if fruits and vegetables are the 'weight loss/keeping it off super foods' fiber may well be the 'weight loss/keeping it off super nutrient' Protein is another important super nutrient.

"Raw Foods" is a popular phrase these days that is often misunderstood, yet represents a powerful, grass roots health movement. Some people shun the idea, not knowing what it means. Others embrace the idea, not knowing what it means. And that's no wonder, since there are many different interpretations of what it means to be on a raw food diet. Personally, I advocate a plant-based raw food diet. In other words, I suggest eating green leafy vegetables, sea vegetables, other vegetables, nuts, seeds, sprouted seeds, and fruit.
