• I wonder why I keep hearing people talk about high fruit vs. high fat? I eat a ton of fruit while following the Phase 1 diet of Gabriel Cousins. This is what cured my candida. It has been several months, and I've been feeling fine. I'm ready to star…

• eczema is usually caused from food allergies or from dry skin. You might want to try to rehydrate with shea butter or coconut oil after bath/shower. Also, if there are any new foods that you've been eating around the time you first discovered the ec…

• this is such a personal journey, there is no "one way" to go 100% raw. I think that for those who have serious abuse in their lives, they will have such a more difficult journey towards overall healing. It might take many years to work through it. I…

• I used to have dreadlocks for about 7 years, and they ended up very long. My reasons for growing them were spiritual, and they really helped me set myself apart from society in a way that was important for me at the time. However, the weight of them…

• I tried raw leeks once... and only once. They were too tough, bitter, and spicy in my recipe. I much prefer green onions.
