Raw Food - where do you get your "PROTEIN"

If I hear “Where do you get your protein?” One more time, I’m gonna SCREAM!!!!!
Now I know that as a raw foodie I’m supposed to be able to stay calm.... and I do, so there! But really!
I reply “ From living foods such as sprouts, nuts, mushrooms, kale, chard, spinach etc etc”
Do you get that too??

Why Raw?

Now I’m a hairdresser so I took this explanation from Karen Knowler, www.therawfoodcoach.com okay?
Basically raw food is still technically “live” food – that is food whose enzymes are still intact and that, if planted, would grow new life. Cooked foods by comparison are not only enzymatically
dead through cooking but also cannot reproduce, and are usually way lower in vitamins, minerals, water, phytochemicals and other important nutrients – and that’s just for starters! We haven’t even started talking hydrogenated fats, disarrayed proteins and a complete lack of oxygen yet. So I’ll save that for another time.

Love the simplicity of her explanation.
