  • Very good point SocaL. Very often we are not aware of the money trail, whether its our tax or our consumption. Try reading fast food nation. It shows,among other things, just how tax money is used to suppert the meat and dairy industry, all thanks t…
    in 100% Vegan? Comment by lushpapaya
  • I always drink the foam and hasnt noticed any sideeffects at all. Maybe its just a question of texture? to make the juice more smooth?
  • Ive tried the blessed herb colon cleanse twice and both times it was really good. The first time was right before I went raw and the second about 5 months after. Really scary to see the stuff youre hoarding in your colon, eventhough there was an imp…

  • I agree with you in many ways but I feel that ignoring certain defieciencys is potentially very harmfull. As rawvegans the only way we can get suffecient vitamin d is from the sun. If you spend the majority of your time indoors, or the weather is ve…
  • I would reccomend getting tjekked for vitamin d defiecency. Because of the oh so crappy summer here in Copenhagen, I didnt get enough sun and is defiecent in vitamin d. I have the same symptoms as you have end theyve improved/dissapeared since i sta…
  • Hi Morning. Is she dehydrated? You can tjeck this by (gently) pulling the skin in her neck. If it stays or is very slow at resuming shape, then its dehydrated. If shes very dehydrated then it may indicate that theres something wrong with the kidneys…
  • @ curlysparkle. Please dont hesitate to share, your opinion or experience are as legit and important as others. Ive always found this forum really cool, because everybody was non judgemental. That has somewhat changed. Is it just me or is there sudd…
  • It might be worth asking about the ingredients. A lot of people use sweet rice flour and fishsauce in it. Tryed to find a tutorial on you tube but they all had the flour/fishsauce mix in it.

  • I think the angle Victoria Boutenko has is great. She states that chimpances eat almost 50% leafy greens and not just fruit. This is backed by research by Jane Godall. Eating only fruit makes me feel strange and I only greens is just to much for me.…
  • If its really pale it could be devoit of gall. As far as I remember thats not a good thing but if its ok now, the its probably just a detoxing thing of some sorts
  • The more greens you eat, the greener the stool. You can definently recognize a detox stool: very dark and maybe rubbery and very smelly. I can get very sick/uncomfortable up to a detox bm but the second its out Im fine again. Must be pure poison heh…
  • Hi Zoe. What amounts do you give your cat? I have 2 kittens I want to transition to raw, and I find some of the info online confusing. Some recommend that you buy extra amino acids(taurin) and add, but is that really necesarry? Imho the cats in natu…

  • What really amuses me is the way corporations fortify food and beverages like white bread or soda with added vitamins. Do people really believe that its healthy?? that its ok to drink or eat it because someone added nutrients?

  • _Morning-theft. That true that the climate is a factor, but most of us also live unnatural lifes. In an ideal world we would roam the rainforest living on greens,fruits and seeds but we dont. We live in a world full of pollution, not just the chemic…
  • Socal: I have been below the 10% an didnt feel particularly awesome. If it works for you, fine but it didnt do it for me. As I said before, we are all different and what suit one person might not suit another. Btw what research? any sources?
  • Socal- thats your(or dr Grahams) point of view. A lot of us function very good, to say the least, on a higher fat percentage than 10. Fx I may take in 400 cal from fat but to maintain my weight I have to have about 2000. Its physically impossible fo…
  • Actually HDL and LDL is lipoproteins not enzymes(high density lipoprotein/low density lipoprotein). They transport fat in our bloodflow. The reason low density is bad is because it get stuck easyere than high density. Its pretty small and can get st…
  • I know the master cleanser isnt a raw thing, but a lot ofthe people in here have tried it and I thought it could be “fun” to do. I will figure something out with the dates I think because, as Zoe said, I dont respond that well to cooked stuff. I do …
  • I dont know if its the same, I think that the maple may have a specific purpose.
  • Hi Zoe. I want to do the master cleanse but is there anything I can substitute the maple sirup with? Thanks
  • So you just eat the seeds and thats it? wow gotta try it. I know it may be a grosse question but can you actually see the worms coming out?
  • Just forgot. I have done the blessed herbs colon cleanse a couple of times and for me it worked like a charm. I know they do parasite cleanses too. Havent tried it but maybe it was worth a try? hope you figure something out.
  • Hi Zoe. Try emailing Angela Stokes or tjeck the rawreform site. As far as I remember she wrote about a parasite cleanse while juicefeasting. It should be inexpensive and easy to do. I know Gillian Mckeith mentions something about in her book, but no…
  • Why is dates cooked? you could chop up different kinds of dried fruit and roll them in to balls.
  • rfoodie. Try tjecking out Brendan Brazier, hes a triathlete, vegan and highraw as far as I understand.
  • Chris. I agree with you and I find that the take Viktoria Boutenko has on things is optimal. I cant function on fruit alone, I need the greens. Im definently not a fruitarian. Other than that I always wondered about the food intake of the eskimos/in…
  • That book is soo good. Really informative. I live in a country where there are strict policies on food safety, so the scenario is a bit unfamiliar for me. But I have family in the states and when they read that book they were chocked.
  • Zoe Im pretty sure that the average humanbeing takes more than 24 hours to process a steak, considering all the yucky stuff in their intestines. (good references : )) I completely agree with you. It would be so much better if everyone just went vega…
  • writeeternity I think its important to differentiate between being a rawvegan and a rawfooder. I eat lokal raw salmon once in a while, because I like it and it works for me. I also think that farming and buthchering is inhumane and unsustainable, bu…
  • Im 100% and I still burn but not as much as I use to. Im not overly fond of using sunscreen but the sun is really harsh here in scandinavia, and I have a family record of skincancer. Furthermore Im the really fair skintype that just get freakles or …
