  • Jerusalem Artichoke Syrup (sweetener) -- anyone tried it?

    jerryhjerryh

    Yes, I have tried it. And it's quite delicious.

    I use it on my oatmeal every morning.

    It has a taste similar to mollasses, so it's a greaat substitute for brown sugar.

    I have been trying to find this as well. Cafe Gratitude sent an email about it a while ago, but I have yet to find it as well and I don't know anyone who's tried it. I love yacon syrup and coconut nectar, but this would be a great third option for unbaking.

  • Jerusalem Artichoke Syrup (sweetener) -- anyone tried it?

    SystemSystem

    I was browsing a new (to me) raw food storefront, Vivapura, and came across their "sweetener of choice" -- Jerusalem artichoke syrup. They claim it's the lowest-glycemic raw sweetener available (well, besides stevia, I suppose) with a GI of 6. They stopped carrying yacon syrup because they liked this one so much.

    Anyone tried it? I'm curious...

    Product is here:

    Yet another surprising wonder in the plant world!

  • Dried fruit

    juliec7138juliec7138

    I love dried fruit. Usually, I used freeze dried fruits float to make drink. It is no sugar, natural sweet and definitely raw.

  • Dense raw carbs

    liliblilib

    Hi Claire,

    Many thanks for your reply. Yes, I was wondering about upping the nuts and avocado because I don't think I've been eating enough calories as I'm hungry all the time. I will give this a go.

    Thanks again,

    Lili

  • Dense raw carbs

    liliblilib

    Hi,

    I'm a newbie to a raw vegan diet but only just started four days ago, having previously been an omnivore. I tried keto in a previous attempt to lose weight but felt terrible – not the keto flu, but had weird mental feelings that I called the "horrors". This stopped when I upped my carbs. I've started to get the horrors again on the raw vegan diet and this stopped when I added cooked sweet potatoes. My question is what dense carbs can I eat that aren't cooked? Or should I just carry on with the cooked addition until I've got used to being raw?

    Thanks,

    Lilib

    Hello,

     

    As if January 8th, would anyone care to join me on a mono-fruit (5 day challenge)? I could use the support lol.

    I have little willpower and would love to record and share experiences with others.

  • What are some of the best ways to reduce dark spots?

    juliep7623juliep7623

    Hello,

    I have experienced a similar situation. What worked for me was applying lemon, coconut oil and mashed cucumber or avocado as a mask. 

    You would prepare this for an evening remedy as you don't want to expose your face in sunlight with the application of lemon.

    As an alternative, macadamia or tee tree oil is also very helpful.

    I wish you success with your treatment.

     

    :)
