36、desire to be healthyPassage 3Why are people interested in eating raw foods or whole foods?One reason is that eating these typesof food reduces the risk of acid accumulation in your body.Raw and whole foods are usually digested more efficiently than cooked and refined foods.When wecook foods,we destr
37、oy the natural enzymes(酶)that are part of the food in its raw form.These enzymeswere intended by nature to help us digest the food.When we consume food without these naturalenzymes,our bodies either digest the food improperly or allow too many nutrients to be absorbed intothe bloodstream.In both ins
38、tances,the result is obesity.When too many nutrients are absorbed at once,the body grows fat.Improperly digested food moves slowly through the digestive tract,where itbecomes increasingly acidic.To protect its vital organs from this acidic waste,the body changes the acidinto fat and stores it safely
39、 away from the organs.Processed foods contain chemical elements,which might confuse the appetite mechanism that tells uswhen weve had enough to eat;as a result,people often overeat.Processed foods also upset the digestivecycle.The body will either identify these foods as allergens(过敏素)and then store
40、 them safely awayfrom the organs as fat,or the remains of undigested food will become acidic and enter the bloodstreamas acid waste,which will stick to the blood vessel walls and block the passage of vital oxygen andnutrients heading for the bodys cells.The bodys metabolism(新陈代谢)becomes inactive,and
41、 theresult is weight gain and obesity.The accumulation of acid in the digestive tract makes digestion increasingly inefficient.When thathappens,even healthy foods can become acidic and the food allergies will become more common.To stop this vicious circle in its tracks,people need to consume food an
42、d supplements that willneutralize the acid already accumulated in body.Eating the right types of raw and whole foods can help.Its also important to restore your enzyme balance.You need to identify and avoid the foods that causeacid accumulation and consume the foods that increase enzyme production.I
