Raw veganism is a type of vegan diet where only uncooked and unprocessed plant foods are eaten. This means that foods like fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds, grains, legumes, and sprouts are all okay to eat, but foods like tofu, bread, pasta, and cooked or processed foods are not okay. Raw vegans usually eat their food in its natural state, and some also choose to "sprout" or "soak" their foods before eating them. Sprouting and soaking help to make the food easier to digest. Eating a raw vegan diet is healthy and helps you to get lots of vitamins and minerals from the food you eat.
