  • Thanks for the warning, Rawkidchef. I just checked under the bottom tray of my L'equip and found a few crumbs but they just wiped up easily with a paper towel. Maybe there has been a redesign since you had yours. I'm not actually using it much right…

  • i looked at the good4U but I just bought a L'equip filter pro and I love it. I've had an excalibur in the past and it was ok but the temperature could not be controlled that well. Mine has a constant monitoring of the temp so what you put in is what…

  • Well, I found out recently that the bags of baby carrots that my grandkids will eat are not really babies at all. They are carrrots past their peak that have been trimmed down to that shape. What a fraud!

  • Stevio, I am so happy for you. I have only been doing this for ten days now and I've lowered my insulin to half and I'm cutting back on my thyroid and adrenal meds. I have a lot more energy, I'm exercising with joy and feeling upbeat generally. I di…
  • I put one tablespoon of chia seeds in my breakfast smoothie, along with sesame, hemp and pumpkin seeds. I figure I'm covering all the bases with those 4. Then cocao and cinnamon and I never get tired of it. I also have used chia gel as an egg substi…

  • I bought this movie and I loved it. I am totally inspired. I wish I knew if any of them reversed thyroid disfunction with it. I felt very sorry for the man who gave up on it. The family who picked him up looked as sick as he was. What was revealing …
  • I can't answer the safety issue but perhaps your baby will take a little spirulina in his water. My granddaughter takes odd stuff in her water (like charcoal when she was having stomach flu) in a sippy cup. Then you wouldn't have to stress about get…
  • My trick is not to have any stuff I don't want to eat in the house. If I had pretzels I'm sure I'd eat them too. Of course, it's easy for me because I live alone. I'm sure I would be hopeless at cooking for others and then eating raw myself. I can w…
  • Thank you all. I will get some more cheese now. I had thrown it out but I really miss it.
  • Hi zucchini, Mine is on it's way so when it gets here I will look on the box and see if you can order extra parts. I'll post it here if I find any info for you.
  • Hi Okra, It was this one - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001JR02TM I put hand food processor in search and there were many cheaper but they only had the whisk and the cutters. This one has all kinds of extras - that may or may not work - no revi…
  • Thanks for mentioning this. I was thinking of getting a cuisinart but I don't really like them, too big and fancy. So I looked in Amazon under hand food processor and there are loads of choices. I sent for one that is about $25 with the shipping and…
  • You can get broccoli sprouting seed at iherb.com made by Now foods. They also have a zesty sprouting mix that is a very good mix. I put the broccoli and the zesty mix together and make sprouts all the time. I use a Biosta sprouter and it works great…

  • It sounds like the heating element went on the blink. You can replace them yourself, I think. I had one a long time ago. Go to the excalibur site and ask there.
  • I bought the blendtech and I love it. My daughter has the latest Vitamix and I don't like it at all. My smoothie with small nuts and seeds and pumpkin seeds comes out totally smooth in the blendtech. In the vitamix there are whole seeds left up on t…
  • Well, I didn't even get the 80-10-10 book yet but, thanks to all your input, I will definitely take it with a grain of salt. I've done a lot more reading on the net now. I read Dr Cousins book ages ago and all that fancy food did not appeal to me. T…
  • Thanks, Stevio, that's encouraging. I'll check out the link. Pam
  • Hi Zoe, Since getting diabetes I have tried many diets. I did blame the diabetes on the fruit I ate but I no longer think that was the cause. So I have been doing a very low carb diet, high in fats and protein to keep the diabetes under control. But…
  • Sweetpea, I really sympathize. My mother has had psoriasis for many years and tried everything - except a raw diet ;-) But I agree with smsaler, he doesn't seem ready to change. He's not unhappy enough with it to commit to the work. Probably won't b…
  • I'm learning how to do body weight exercises so I'm getting much more exercise than before 811. I don't really worry about the protein much because in the book he says that fruits and leafy greens give you enough. I have enough nuts at the end of th…
  • I am still losing weight on 811 and I can't afford to. So I'm upping my calories every day. Cherimoyas as 230 cal each but they are hard to find. The thing is, this way of eating is giving me so much energy that I am doing things I haven't done in y…
  • Back to someone's comment about diabetes diets. I am practising the 80-10-10 diet right now in prep for a one month trial after my kids go home in January. I have done the diet totally except for my cacoa drink every day - which still keeps me in th…
  • I'm near Santa Barbara and just joined a raw meetup there so I met about 8 raw foodies. There will be a Raw Spirit Festival in June so then more raw foodies will come out of their closets and maybe I'll meet someone closer to me. I'm finding it toug…
