There is no contradiction between those different statement.
The food in itself is not more or less digestable in itself .
The digestability is dependant on the relationship between the food and the
consumer at any given time.
A body needing some specific nutrients wil get attracted to and get ready
to received the apropriate food . In that situation the food wil be very
easely digested .
mixing many foods together will confuse this abilty of the body to recognise
the food and to respond apropriatelly to the digestive requirements of
that food ( ex secretion of hydrochoric acid and alcaline saliva at the same
time).
When not needed at time , the food in its natural state will become hard
for the body to handle , the body will not get trigered to secrete the right
combinaison of digestive juices.
In that condition cooked food will bypass this natural qualitative and
quantitative regulation , doing the work for the body of breaking down the
food and lightening the burden of digestion .
In truth cook food will allow you to eat what you will not have eaten in a
raw state (because of the taste barrier and also because of the
impossibility to salivate or digest this food. easely)
Raw animal fat is a good ex , when in need , the fat just melt in your mouth
and when not in need the fat become sticky, glueing to the teeth hard to
swallow .
Just melt it artificailly with heat and you can swallow way more.
The issue is to ask :how beneficial or harmfull , is it to eat beyond the
limits of the natural regulation of intake.( in quality and quantity).?
