Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Raw, Not Chilled Eating Raw doesn’t have to mean eating fridge-cold food. The Raw approach allows for the heating of food up to 42°C, which is about the temperature people usually wait for their hot food to reach before eating it, anyway.

Detailed explanation-2: -Your staples: raw fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and sprouted grains. Some eat unpasteurized dairy foods, raw eggs, meat, and fish. Your food can be cold or even a little bit warm, as long as it doesn’t go above 118 degrees. You can use blenders, food processors, and dehydrators to prepare foods.

Detailed explanation-3: -The raw food diet, often called raw foodism or raw veganism, is composed of mostly or completely raw and unprocessed foods. A food is considered raw if it has never been heated over 104–118°F (40–48°C). It should also not be refined, pasteurized, treated with pesticides or otherwise processed in any way.

Detailed explanation-4: -A raw food diet doesn’t mean that you only have to eat cold food. You can warm food up to 115 degrees (F), and it will still be classified as living. If it is coming from the fridge, it’s possible to warm the food at higher temps (145 degrees F) for a shorter period without destroying the enzymes.
