RAW KNOWLEDGE
Your body is a living organism, made of living cells which require LIVING (Raw) FOODS in order to be properly nourished and to function well.
​
Did you know that your body has over 100 trillion cells that are constantly being cleansed and replaced? Your body's cells are replaced every 7-10 years. As your old cells die off, the new cells which replace them are completely dependent on the building material that we provide it. Good nutrition builds strong cells and boosts your immune system. Your body cannot properly renew its cells if it is full of toxins and is nutrient deficient. Proper cell care is key to our health, energy, strength, mental stability, and life. It is important to create a healthy environment for your cells and the only way you can do that is through LIVING FOODS.
​
LIVING FOODS are foods that are consumed fresh, raw, or in a condition as close as possible to their original living state, such as: raw fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, and seeds. LIVING FOODS contain the nutrients, vitamins, and minerals that your body needs to thrive. Isn't it amazing that the same nutrients that are found in dirt and soil, can also be found in the human body? Every time you consume LIVING FOODS you are feeding and fueling your cells at a cellular level. As those cells are replaced, they are restored with new and healthy cells.
​
Here at the Juice Garden, our plant-based menu is specifically designed to nourish and sustain your cells. We have spent over 20 years studying RAW FOODS and collecting menus from our travels to the West Coast to create the perfect combinations and bring them back to our home town of Fremont. We want you to know exactly what you are putting into your body and that is why we have created the following HEALTH BENEFITS CHART. This chart is a complete list of all of our LIVING FOOD items that are used to create each item on our menu and its cell building benefits. Enjoy!
