• I use a neti pot to help get rid of mucus if I am feeling congested. It took some getting used to but works well. Here is a good summary I found about the neti pot from here http://www.ehow.com/about_5101828_treatments-mucus-throat.html: "Nasal Irri…

• Just curious, I would love to eat a lot of fruit like many of you are describing (your daily menus sound so delicious) but how do you suggest buying so much on a budget. Do you mainly buy organic or find deals somewhere or another? Many fruits that …

• The suggestion about making the smoothies the night before is a good idea. You can store your smoothies in a glass mason jar in a fridge (if you have one) which works well.

• I recommend soups for a quick tasty fix. I love the fact that they are easy to make (basically just toss everything in a blender) and that they are really quite good. Two recipes that I really enjoy (and have been making quite frequently) are the fo…

• I really like Allisa Cohen’s Carrot-Pecan Burgers. http://www.goneraw.com/recipes/89-Carrot-Pecan-... Also Ani Pho’s Garden Pate is really good. You’ll have to check out her book for that one.

• Ginger always helps my tummy. Perhaps a recipe with ginger or fresh ginger to nibble on might help. Also, not raw but I love Reed’s Premium Ginger Brew for nauseousness. I got terribly sick from a boat ride once and one swig worked wonders.

• Oh and drinking loads of water helps me too.

• As a runner I take an msm supplement for my joints. Sometimes a glucosamine chondroitin supplement as well. I find that they help. Also warming up prior to a workout and stretching afterwards (after your body is all warmed up) is important. Learning…

• Maybe instead of having the traditional 3 meals a day you could have small meals and noshes throughout the day. I’ve also read about using coconut (oil, butter, meat) to add calories. Olive oils and avocados as KellyS mentioned got those healthy fat…

• When I first started eating raw foods I became a little discouraged thinking that I needed to plan out meals far in advance to allow time for soaking, dehydrating, etc. But over time I realized that often it is the gourmet type meals that require th…

• Oh I hear you. I love the farmer’s market too. There is a great organic farmer I know who gives my boyfriend and I good deals on “softies” that we freeze and use for smoothies.

• Just sharing a good deal, thanks for the input. As a college student looking to save money I buy non-organic avocados since they have low pesticide levels.

• I’d suggest juices and sprouts. I’m such a sucker for premade juices and sprouts, and if they could possibly be organic that would probably make for a good selling point too.
