there are no gurus

[Guest guest]

I just got back from hearing Mrs. Boutanko speak. She said something

that makes me think a bit different.

 

She said, that there are no raw food gurus and we are all pioneers.

 

She said we don't have hundreds or thousands of years of raw food

history. Wrong or right, it makes me think a bit more and look for

answers based

on my experiences and what I see

 

She also said something that surprised me, she said oxalic acid is only

seen in cooked spinach. I raised my hand and said I think it is the

other way around and only in raw and cooking breaks it down. She said

no. I asked are you %100 sure (my wife kicked me under the table).

She said yes and I left it at that as not to argue in front of 60

people with the guest speaker.

 

I have never read anything that confirms what she says. On the

contrary eveything I can find says cooking breaks it down. I don't

understand why she would say that.
