I doubt this very much because I have seen that people who were ill
when they still ate cooked get their symptoms back immediately if
they eat only small amount of cooked food (or eat not-so-instinctively).
I think that the body is able to handle small amounts of denaturated
molecules because it always was exposed to them. There is always a
fruit that did get to hot or a fish that was exposed to the sun to
long, or a bush fire that roasted some animals or roots. But I assume
that our bodies never got adapted genetically to the large amounts
of denaturated stuff that comes with the usual cooked, processed, food.
I see now, that only small deviations from the instinctive rule lead
to all kinds of problems. For me these are knee aches, pimples or a
snuff. For others it might be a cancer or a neurodermitis that cause
problems again.
