2 Fantastic Raw Foods!

Two very special ingredients to a raw foodists:

1. Raw Pumpkin Seeds: These have been studied by scientists all around the world and the results were astonishing. They found that these little guys actually helps aid against prostate cancer!!!

2. Oat Groats: As many of you already know, oatmeal that we as humans generally eat everyday are not on the raw food diet. Many people are confused about this realization though. It is a fact that oats are heated above the 105 degree temperature to remove the husks from the oats. These heated oats are called "rolling oats". The oats that anyone can eat while on the raw food diet are called "oat groats". Oat groats are actually the whole oat and no heating has been performed on this natural fiber. It is essential that the body gets fiber to get everything regular, and these oat groats are the perfect source!

We purchased these two bags for less than $3.00 at a little Mennonite Grocery Store in the country. We were amazed to find these two little fantastic finds and for a very low price!!! Saving money while eating raw just means you have to look around more before you start purchasing. There are cheap locations or there are more expensive ones, just look around for the best prices!
