Five years ago, Caloroso Café introduced a new coffee culture to George, and with our raw food bar we are now offering an alternative fine dining experience, focusing on health, vitality and longevity. Raw food is ideal for detoxing and cleansing, hands down.It’s also great for boosting immunity, helping our bodies achieve their ideal weight, clearing up our skin and allergies, and for treading li
ghtly on our planet. By enjoying a diet of raw foods, we get to eat the wide variety of delicious and nutritious fresh and whole fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds from Mother Nature’s bounty. Our food is fresh, although some components may be dehydrated at low temperature. Prolonged heating at elevated temperatures damages beneficial vitamins, minerals, amino acids and enzymes in fresh food. While lowering the nutritional value of our food, heating also releases water. Our bodies are made up of about 80 percent water, as is the planet and yet most people are under-hydrated. It is suggested that we should ingest water through the foods we eat as much as possible. Plants naturally distill water, and by consuming water-rich plant-based foods, we’re consuming living water rather than dead water that’s been sitting stagnant inside a toxic plastic bottle or chemically treated municipal water. By transitioning to a raw food lifestyle, you may well find that you can think more clearly, are able to focus better, and are more productive. All this may make you feel better about yourself, and the hop in your step will make you look your best too. We hope to help people live better lives through improved nutrition, because when we are healthy, strong, vibrant, and feel good in our body, it’s easier to be happy. From this place, achieving any goal is possible!
