  • I second the kale chips. Those hit that crunchy, salty, crispy type of craving really well. And depending on your seasonings, it can hit that sweet/salty spot just right. I'm a kettle corn fanatic; if I buy a bag, I eat the whole friggin' thing in a…
  • I'm the same way: drinking multiple cups every single day. Keep a stash at work; keep some in my purse for on the go days.... :-) Take two mugs and a thermos on professional development days.... I don't see any issues with it, personally. And if you…

  • I use banana in most of my smoothies - either fresh or frozen - for bulk, for texture, for nutrition and for cheap filling calories. Having said that, most of that (with the exception of the calories part) could also be taken care of by some cucumbe…
  • Broccoli slaw! With a "peanut" sauce. Buy a bag (or 4, because you WILL want more) of organic broccoli slaw from Trader Joes, then whirl up the dressing in the blender (I use sunflower seeds, nama shoyu/soy sauce/coconut aminos, maple syrup/agave, g…

  • Hi Nell, If you haven't already, I'd recommend reading a number of posts on the Kristen's Raw blog: http://kristensraw.blogspot.com/ She went through quite the ordeal to get pregnant and writes about all the details in regards to prepping her body f…
  • Oooh I'm excited to see the results Joyce! Hopefully there will be a nice lengthy post about it on your blog? :-) I've been eying that one myself, it looks tasty.
  • I believe that IS actually supposed to be a portrayal of the recipe on pg. 80 - the heirloom tomatoes, etc. Perhaps the tomatoes were peeled prior to being cut into squares/rectangles? Then again, I did see a "food stylist" challenge on Food Network…
  • An IUD is inserted through your cervix and into your uterus, where it stays for up to 5 years (Mirena) or 10 years (Paraguard.) As long as that little baby is happily nested away in your uterus, your chances of pregnancy are virtually nill. I have t…

  • I used the Teens Turning Green one for quite a while too! But now I found one that I like even better: Organic Grooming by Herban Cowboy in the "Wild" scent (I think.) My little health food store nearby had a sign in front of the original "Dusk" sce…
  • Lobo, any updates on how this is going? I just picked up her book today - I already had Raw Food Detox Diet - and am curious as to whether you've seen a difference....
  • Ooooh Gemini, I am SO glad someone else mentioned the PURE bars! I am incredibly hooked on the chocolate brownie ones - definitely the best raw bar I've found. This morning, I chopped one up, stuck it in a bowl, added some "Just Cherries" (freeze-dr…

  • Are you familiar with www.cosmeticsdatabase.com ? Also known as "Skin Deep," it's a site that looks at all the ingredients in products and what those ingredients have been linked to in multiple studies. It then rates the product according to safety.…
  • I'd also recommend checking out The Thrive Diet by Brendan Brazier. I know someone else mentioned him above, but I don't think the book title came up. His book goes through some of the science behind it, as well as his own personal experiment on him…
  • Yup, have it. Yup, recommend it. Check out this post about it: http://goneraw.com/forum/entertaining-raw-matthew-kenney
  • It's a more pricey solution, but I have an indoor composter that you simply plug into the wall. Dump it all in and let the machine do the work until it's full, then transfer it to the lower container.... eventually you take it outside and dump it in…

  • "cacao is paired with the high fat eating raw fooders" Wow, that was a sweeping generalization. Some people actually like the slight bitterness of cacao nibs. It can make a nice counterpoint to sweet, low-fat things too, like a buckwheaties and drie…

  • LOL ddigiacomo. I guess I should note one other thing about the new book..... the portions tend to be fairly large (which makes sense for a book that focuses on *entertaining*). So for both the mediterranean tarts and the truffles, I cut the recipes…
  • Well, here goes folks.... I have the truffle mixture in the freezer firming up to make the Mesquite-Maca Truffles (although I may make a version with lucuma in addition to/instead of the mesquite.... not a big fan) and I have the tart crusts for his…
  • So, happily, my book arrived last night. Unfortunately, I didn't get all that much time to read it yet. However, I agree that most of the recipes are fairly heavily laden with coconut, cacao powder, maple syrup and cashews, etc - so high fat and hig…
  • Wow. Who are we to judge someone's entire character from a one-time interaction or through a few interviews distributed on the internet? I'm not going to say she's this fantastic person; I'm not going to say she's a witch either. I don't know the la…
  • Here's my favorite: http://www.larenim.com/product-exec/product_id/34126/nm/LARNM_DUSK_TIL_DAWN_CONCLR_FOUNDTN While I occasionally have breakouts, this stuff revolutionized my skin. I even tried the little Zeno machine that heats up for a ridiculou…
  • I know everyone has already addressed what to put IN your body for glowing skin.... some of the things I put ON my body are: Desert Essences face wash Coconut oil (luxurious amounts in the winter :-) Larenim mineral makeup (their Dusk to Dawn stuff …
  • Who said you can't use it if you have a tilted uterus? My doc told me that a while back, and suggested that may be part of the reason that I had NO luck at all with the Instead cups. HOWEVER... I got my DivaCup and have used it successfully, repeate…
  • I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Mirena IUD. It's got very low hormones, lasts 5 years, and is as effective as a vasectomy. I haven't gained any weight, no depression or mood swings, my sex drive has probably increased and I never have to even think about it (hu…

  • I just wanted to pop in a big “hurray” for my Mirena IUD – the hormone version of an IUD, which is more effective (statistically, as effective as a vasectomy) and actually decreases the severity and duration of your period. It’s also considered to b…
