Human body can absorb the nutrients from food they consume only in their presence. With birth, there is natural production of these protein molecules in infants. It gradually diminishes in growth as they grow and hence need to be replaced by consuming sprouted grams and cereals. Breast milk is in the raw, uncooked state which means it contains natural enzymes to aid in its digestion thus requiring little digestive effort on the part of the infant. It is also found in plenty in food products such as raw fruits and vegetables. Avoid canned, processed and packaged food which have no protein molecules present, it can only satiate your stomach but it does not fulfill the required amount of nutrient needed for your body.

Fast food habits and new cooking techniques kill the protein molecules or enzymes in food. Avoid cooking them as far as possible try eating them raw. You can have raw fruits as snacks. Vegetables can be eaten raw in the form of salads.

These are the interesting facts of life!
