• Hi Emmasoleil, I too am in Quebec (Montreal) and am 16. Where abouts do you live? I'd love to know someone else who is raw around where I live. I've never tried Vega either but have heard good things about it, although I don't believe it is raw. I c…

• Congratulations on your entering into womanhood. When I first started my period (I was only ten), I suffered from heavy, long periods and terrible cramps, which progressively got worse. I don't know how long you have been raw, or how raw you are, bu…

• Thanks so much for your input. Nancy: that is a great idea. I think I will try that. I've heard of doing that for dry hands, but never thought of it for body. RawKaren: Thank you SO much. I had always heard that you were supposed to do it for 10-15 …

• LOL, I can't believe I didn't even see that.... or maybe I did and forgot. :) I know, they look amazing and I have heard lots of really amazing things about them. I might splurge just to try them, only then if they are as incredible as is purported,…

• Pixx, the shampoo I use is called Earth Spirit Organics. So far I have been pleased with the results, although my scalp is often quite itchy. I think that might be from missing my hairbrush though =) I used to have this fabulous wooden bristle brush…

• Hi Joannabanana, I did no poo for a year and a half. At first, I only did water rinses (simply scrubbing my hair vigorously under water for 5-10 min) once a week. At the time my hair was waist length, straight and not too thick. At first it went gre…

• I have the book but have not made them yet. I agree that they look delicious, but at first they were just way too complicated for me (I was new to raw foods) and now I simply haven't had the chance yet. Sorry if I'm not much help. Let me know how th…

• I'm the same joannabanana. For months, I used raw tahini in recipes (like the zuchini hummus) and I always had to make sure that there wasn't too much tahini flavour. I too found it really bitter, and if I got a bit on my finger, I would wash it off…

• I am not sure wether the enzyme inhibitors are still active after grinding, however I know that nuts benefit a lot from being soaked. Smaller seeds such as sesame/flax/hemp I do not soak, as they end up just as a gooey mess. Also, I believe that the…

  in I have to go to a wedding... Comment by sexyraw99
• Oh, and just to add, I've found that if you try to do a strict, new exercise plan and a strict, new diet, it is very easy to get discouraged and drop both. So I would recommend really focusing on diet for the next few months, (or at least 1 month, f…

• Being someone who lost 70 lbs. prior to discovering raw with the original goal of losing 20 lbs in 2 months, your goal seems very possible, although don't beat yourself up if you don't manage to quite achieve it. Keep in mind that anything is amazin…

• graceinyaface: I've never tried fries, I'll have to get meself a jicama, they sound great. My favourite is the jicama taco salad on this site, with mango and coriander. It's amazing. I had it practically every night for 2 weeks last summer and my to…

• Actually, my understanding is that coconut oil is just the oil extracted from the coconut flesh, whereas coconut butter is the coconut meat pureed sort of like a nut butter. They are definitely different things. You can get many brands of coconut oi…

• Mmm, I love lettuce wraps. I make a salsa using 2 tomatoes chopped quite small, 1 lime juiced (or half, depending on size -- basically to taste), 1/4 red onion minced, 1-2 cloves garlic, pressed, 1/4 cup cilantro finely chopped (or a bit more). Just…

• I don't think I am having too much fat. By avocado I mean about a tablespoon, and I can't imagine that being too much. Also, I find if I have any less, my cravings increase. Tangerine: I agree, and did do a gallbladder cleanse last year which seemed…
