• Have you done anything to treat your hubby? Often times we solve the problem for ourselves not even thinking about the fact that whatever yeast/bacteria have infested our genitalia are probably present on our partners. So you start feeling better, g…

• Hey rawmama- I was in your shoes just a couple of months ago. When I first started jogging I could barely go 1/4 mile without feeling like breathing was the hardest thing in the world. Now I'm up to about 4 miles :). For me the hardest challenges we…

• I've used the mature coconut water (and much of the meat) to make a pretty yummy soup. I blended all together with a large handful of spinach and a bit of curry powder. Threw in some mushrooms and zucchini "noodles" and it was pretty darn yummy.

• Branwyn- I grew up in Atlanta and moved out to Seattle about 6 years ago. I'd go back every 6 months for the first few years and recognized after about the 3rd trip that I just sink into an immediate depression as soon as I'm back in the Atlanta are…

• I've never been pregnant, or completely raw, so I may not be the best person to give advice, but the first thing that comes to my mind is to try to eat as many heavy raw foods as possible (nuts, seeds, avacados, coconuts). It's not good for baby to …

• I haven't really decided yet. I did 40 days back in July, so I didn't really intent to do a huge cleanse, just a bit of "light housekeeping" after I partied too hard before, during and after my birthday earlier this month. I have limes to last me th…

• I've done the Master Cleanse a few times (on day 13 of number 3 right now) and have searched around for good forums. I've found mastercleanser.com/forum to be the most positive/supportive site. Good luck on your cleanse!

• found this link on the Purely Raw site. It's long, but it has some great points, especially (for your purposes) about speaking to specific demographics. It's hard to convince the average male college student he's not going to live forever, so health…

• I dream of someday being totally raw. I’ve managed to cut the meat and coffee and that in itself has been pretty huge for me. Honestly when I first got the IUD my diet was horrible, but I was quite concerned about hormones because I had serious reac…

  in birth control- IUD/IUC Comment by KathrynL
• I have the plastic IUD- I was going to get the copper, but learned that the copper can increase cramping and mine already had me stuck in bed 2 days out of every month, so I decided ultra-light hormones were an okay trade off for not making my cramp…

• I can’t give you much information on getting your cycle back to normal (I’ve NEVER had a normal cycle), but I can tell you that not all doctors require you to be on your period to insert the IUD, they just recommend inserting it at that time to redu…

• Hi Justine, Have you looked into home schooling communities in your area? I had a friend exactly in your situation who found a “home-schooling school.” Each parent is the primary “teacher” for their own child, but families could come into the school…

• I was just BAD. I gained 30 lbs over the past winter, but thankfully lost it all during the MC. I’m switching to raw now, to make sure I don’t gain it all back, and to try to keep my energy up (so I don’t spend another winter in bed). I’ve been obse…
