Frost kills so why freeze?

Hey there :)

I cant remember where i read it but i remember reading a passage somewhere about not eating frozen foods. It wasn't a new piece of nutritional/raw literature written by one of the 'leaders' of raw living, but rather from an old text.
It mentioned something along the lines of not eating anything exposed/heated by fire or frozen and not eating animals. Very vague i know but you catch the drift! (if you know what passage of text i am on about feel free to post it to me!)

Now i know what damage heat does, which is of course is why i eat raw but i thought 'whats wrong with freezing raw foods? One of my favorite foods when i first turned raw was frozen banana, berries and raw ice cream, which i do admit, helped me enormously.
I haven't eaten anything frozen for a long time now, i haven't even thought about it.

It occurred to me the other day (yes, the light bulb just went off in my head!) why we shouldn't eat frozen foods.

If you are a gardener, or are at all interested in plants you know that frost kills alot of plants. Leaves and fruit die..which obviously isn't good! And a freezer is colder than a frost! So what is freezing going to do to the food? It is destroy and kill alot more of the goodness and life force than people think, so just bare this in mind when you go to freeze that lovely living fruit and veg!

FROST KILLS!
