  • You're on, zinfandel! I'm traveling this week so my meals have already been prepared for the next three whole days (boy, what a cooking frenzy today!) so I will try that when this batch of food runs out. I will admit to being a salt-dependent cook. …

  • :::shrugs::: I have always had that problem, ever since being little. It does get worse when I am sick, tired, or overtrained. I would be interested in some information as well.

  • This is an interesting thread, because I've been struggling with this as well. I got my BS in Community Health hoping to do health education, but then decided to go for my masters in Family and Consumer Sciences, studying a bit about nutrition, but …
  • Same here, I'm with pixx: I never eat anything cold, except for smoothies and ice cream. My VitaMix makes nice, warm soups. Zucchini noodles are my favorate right now, and in the dehydrator for 15 minutes at 115 warms it enough for me. You can also …
  • I have a bodybugg, which tells me exactly how many calories I burn- which, on my most active days is 2500- I'm 140lbs aproximately (and a 26 year old female, not her age). I used to be a Bodybugg coach, too, so for 40 hours a week I did nothing bout…
  • While this arguement has been played out in extreme detail in other places, I would give the author some credit if there was a list of exactly what phytonutrients in exactly what foods s/he is referring to: the list is quite small (lycopene in a tom…
  • Inflamation could mean you also have some sort of infection- I had really bad bouts of thirst (and thus, urinating super frequently) and it was due to some sort of system infection- my body fought it off before they could pinpoint what it was. Mine …
  • On the highly medical side, you may have diabetes melitus (what we know of as diabetes) or diabetes insipidus, which is where your kidneys can't tell your body to filter the water back into yoru body and you wind up urinating it out. Both have that …
  • While I'm not 100% raw vegan in the hard-core sense (the occasional miso or a cup of green tea every now and then), it was when I was transitioning that I started to have the problem- I was still eating cooked grains and beans: hummus, oats and oat …
  • I was really skeptical about going 100 percent raw for the same reasons- Being a personal trainer, my fitness is top priority. I did, in fact, lose some muscle along with the fat. Now that I am past that point, I realize I was detoxing. Now, I am mu…
  • I posted this on another stream, but I am telling you that the best form of birth control is called Fertility Awareness Method. No matter when you got off the pill, no matter how long your cycles are or if you are having an irregular cycle, you can …
  • Its so funny what people think they don' t like, like with your boyfriend and the granola. Mine was kind of like that, he thought he wouldn't like raw butternut squash or raw sweet potato, but he will gobble up the butternut squash soups or sweet po…
  • I not only live with a non-raw, non-vegetarian boyfriend, but have three other housemates that are, too! The smells of the different foods drive me crazy sometimes! I will admit that these days are a little easier if we are both eating the same thin…
  • Yay, I'm so glad! That totally makes me happy. It really changed my life and how I approach my 'monthly cycle.' I'm sure it will do the same for you, if only to alleviate the stress of when you ovulate. I got my first period post-pill on the 1st, bu…
  • OMG, I am in the same boat! I was on the pill for 7 years and then, after going raw for a few months, I read Conscious Eating. I started to test my pH and found I was horridly acidic- only when I was on the 'off week' of the pill and had my menses d…
  • Spending most of my young adult life as a personal trainer, I find it so funny that our culture is so obsessed with the perfect body type. Most who seek it will never find it, and almost all (95%) who lose weight, gain it back. I just hope you aren’…
  • Wow, vegan, I'm so glad you brought this topic to the forum- While I haven't had any abnormal teeth sensitivity since being raw, I have always had very poor tooth health- it seems the more I pay attention to the dentist's wishes, the worse it become…
