Opinion: I wouldn’t worry so much about being a 100% Raw Vegan. Who really cares? Like someone above wrote, no one is behind you with a notebook scribbling your every dietary blunder. This isn’t a school test, you’re not being checked or graded or j…

in Bye bye 100% raw vegan Comment by shane

I think sadness is the natural response to those images. Your feelings show you that you’re a kind and compassionate person. What if you didn’t feel anything at all in the face of that suffering? To feel nothing when shown such horror would be a muc…

in why am I so sad..... Comment by shane

I’ve read that cereal grains and beans are bad for RA. Beans and grains are high in lectins. And lectins can cause changes in the wall of the digestive track, which allows some of the material normally kept inside the gut to leak into the body. The …

in Raw with Rheumatoid Arthritis Comment by shane

Say more, Shannon. You can speak your mind here, I’d love to know more. I agree with much of what you’re saying, and the anti-science attitudes in the health food movement bother me, too. But there are good, clear reasons why people have lost faith …

Great post, atragicvillian. You wrote: “They

in FRUITARIAN!!!! Comment by shane

Wow, Randall, that’s scary. Did you have any medical problems before starting the Jesus Diet? On a typical day, what did you eat on the diet? Amounts, types of fruit, etc?

in FRUITARIAN!!!! Comment by shane

I don’t do marathons, but i do cycle a few hundred miles a week, and I like easily eaten fruits for energy—bananas, apples, tangerines. A small amount of nuts work well, too, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower. I don’t like Gu and these gel products …

in ATHLETES Comment by shane

Just my opinion. I don’t do powdered mixes because I just don’t know what’s in the can. What’s in there, how did they make it, why is it so complicated and expensive? Fresh fruits and vegetables are easy: there’s a bunch of spinach leaves, simple, g…

in Green Smoothie Question Comment by shane

I’m so sorry you’re suffering, Jenny. It sucks. But it will pass. And good for you for not taking Tylenol. That’s what everyone told me to do, too—take some Tylenol. And I don’t know which is more immoderate, eating 30-40 satsumas, or taking Tylenol…

What do you mean by healing the brain?

in Brain Food Comment by shane

I’m in. Although today I had a few berry smoothies, tonight I’m drinking a green smoothie (spinach, kale, broccoli, asparagus, three bananas, coconut water). Good luck, friends!

in Green smoothie fast? Comment by shane

Green smoothies. And if these feel too heavy, try just berry smoothies: blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, cranberries. Mangoes help. And walnuts. Hemp and flaxseed. Brazil nuts for selenium. In addition to rawmumma’s “Whatever ha…

in Foods good for depression Comment by shane

And so she comes to dream herself the tree, The wind possessing her, weaving her young veins, Holding her to the sky and its quick blue, Drowning the fever of her hands in sunlight. She has no memory, nor fear, nor hope Beyond the grass and sha…

in Resonance of trees Comment by shane

I’m right there with you, Mopoke. In some of the darkest, worst times in my life, being near, under, around trees has saved me. Just their presence is enough. Long green leaves, rough and smooth bark, their silent size and health. They ask for nothi…

MSM makes me fog up the window.

in Killer Gas- Detox??? Comment by shane

Thanks, Marichiesa. I’m sorry to hear that, and it must be painful for you on several levels. I’ve just started a yoga practice, and I love it. It’s addictive! But I also feel like I’m pushing too hard and too fast. I feel it in my hamstrings, thoug…

How did you injure your back in yoga?

I like love: give him the gift of you. If that’s lame, take him skydiving. That’s what I want, anyway. Some pretty girl to go skydiving with me…

I shoot documentaries for PBS.

in Curious What Careers Raw Foodist have. Comment by shane

Hey Dream, I know what you mean and I’m traveling a similar path. I like the results of raw, too: the clearer skin, the no mucus, the no colds, the lighter feeling, the more energy, the less sleep. I’ve also lost weight since going all raw three mon…

in Jubb's 14 day cleanse. Anyone done it? Comment by shane

Excellent thought, Lotus. It’s easy to get a little obsessive about refining the diet into near perfection. As is stated so often here, we’re all on healthy journeys, and we’re all moving at our own indy paces. I’m grateful and happy I’ve found what…

in Celebration! Comment by shane

I agree, Clinton. I have a Vitamix 4500, and love it. It’s radically changed the way I eat, and because of it, I’m eating much, much better than I ever have in my life. At least I think I am…

in My previous experience - now confused Comment by shane

i get them from the farmer’s market. They’re 12.00 for a case of nine. I’m just curious, how often does everyone eat them? I eat quite a few, nearly one a day, and use the water as a base for green smoothies.
