Cool is raw food for everyone?

i can really see how raw food makes sense and i definitely believe steve's reports about how great he feels on it.
is it possible though, that it is not suitable for everyone's constitution?
certainly other health systems such as chinese medicine and macrobiotics would say so, claiming that those with weak digestive energy cannot process cold or raw food easily.
it has also been my experience that raw food has seemed to get "stuck" in my gut, lying there feeling cold and heavy.
i just wonder if i was perhaps lacking sufficent knowledge about the subtleties of the raw diet or if indeed one needs strong digestive "chi" to start with (and perhaps to live in a warm climate)...?
