I'm glad you stated that. I tried to follow the Natural Hygiene/Fruitarian
ideal many years ago until it made me feel and funtion worse than when I ate
SAD. Their idealism turned out to be a big disappointment. A few years ago
I checked on my former NH hero TC Fry and discovered he died at the ripe
old age of 63 from dietary deficiencies.

So, it sounds like you are indicating some sort of cut-off point or ratio. If 10% of
my diet is cooked, then I would only be overburdening my "enzyme factory" by
10% (adjusted, of course, for whatever enzyme is required at that point)?
But then, how would that compare based on someone who embraces cooking
and/or SAD. In other words, if my potential lifespan is 100 and by cooking
nearly 100% I deplete my enzyme factory by the age of 80, would that mean
if by cooking only 10% would that effective age be inceased to - say, 90 or 95?
(I'm throwing the 100 number out there as a goal :)

No, recipes require preparation time. Cooking could be as simple as jamming a
piece of meat on a stick and securing over a fire with a rock. Hardly any time at all.
