Hi Rose.
Is 100% raw the real goal. Or is it to do the best for your health that you can.
There's so many variations on the goal. You could aim for 70 - 100% raw. You could aim for 20 out of 21 meals a week to be raw. You could aim to be raw up to 5pm each day. You could aim to be 100% vegan and raw when possible. You could aim to eat simply the best and most healthy available option at any given meal.
i find the whole 100% thing a bit arbitrary anyway. Are the seeds I'm eating definitely raw? Not sure - they could have been heated higher than 105 F (or is it 115 F?) Is agave really raw, is cacao really raw - there seems to be a lot of arguments in the raw community about what is and what isn't truely raw!
So maybe the goal is about aligning with health and vitality rather than raw. I do think the 100% gives it a measurable goal, but if that isn't resonating with you then I think you are right to question it.
