So, what about slow cooking meat? I guess that's still in those temperature ranges, huh?
Yeah I'd love to know whether to cook my food
Forgive me if I'm reading sarcasm into your comment where it wasn't intended, but raw food diets are definitely a thing, and there are people who choose to abide by them. It's not a diet I would personally choose, but it for some folks it works.
Yeah I'll probably consider it if I get to not have cancer!
I also have no ability to detect sarcasm so apologies if this was in jest.
Eating raw foods doesn't guarantee not getting cancer. We're constantly exposed to carcinogens so the best thing we can do is reasonably avoid them when we can. Raw food diets are pretty tough to keep up with and have their own risks. Just eat a diet comprised of mostly or all plants, avoid a lot of added sugar, saturated fat, sodium, alcohol, and nicotine containing products. Just by doing that, you give yourself a pretty good chance of a healthy life.
