you are right! thats why raw foodists sometimes use dehydrators or warm some of the veggies at a temp of under 116 degrees- to make them easier to digest/more pleasant to eat, but also to keep the nutrients. but you'd be amazed at how many creative recipes there are out there for raw foodies. try this:in a blender mix a giant handful of raw spinach, a few chucks fresh pineapple, a banana and some blueberries. add a few ice cubes, some honey, and a splash of whatever fruit juice you like. drink that and tell me you don't feel totally amazing! i know the spinach thing sounds weird, but even the total skeptics love it!
