• Yes, nuts/seeds can be acidic… but, when you germinate them… you’re removing some acid which are the enzyme inhibitors such as tannin & phytic acid. Great! I just bought hemp hearts then. :o) Are there other sources of where to get Jungle peanut…

• Hemp hearts? Do they taste ‘different’ from what I get? Will Nutiva’s Organic Shelled Hempseed (from Whole Foods and Wegmans) work for making the milk? Are those hemp hearts? So, no flavor in Irish moss. That’s good, maybe I will skip it or substitu…

• For puddings, avocado is good. You can also try irish moss, lecithin, (some say chia), or agar. For green smoothies, skip the banana and use a different fruit. For fruit smoothies, I can’t think of anything… something like a yogurt… hmmm… smoothie…

• In 2004, when I went raw for 10 days, I had energy, no cravings for sweets, cravings for oranges, and mental clarity by day 10. I only did this for 10 days. In 2005,I did the same diet, and I didn’t get any results. Then, I went raw ~95% on a differ…

• Yes! It will take some time though. Anyone know how long before hair turns back to its darker color? I would guess about a year.

• Bummer… so there is a chance our sprouts are absorbing fluoride.

  in Water for Sprouting Comment by germin8
• That is useful information! Thanks. It also confirms our green smoothie problem… too much fiber… constipation! We weren’t drinking enough water.

• How about marinating them in first cold-pressed olive oil with your favorite Italian spices? Then add your marinara sauce.

• How long were they in the dehydrator? I would suggest 12 hours or more (like 24) for seeds and nuts. I store my nuts/seeds in glass with a plastic lid, so I don’t know if the plastic has anything to do with it… just guessing there.

• as 123 said, stilled water is (slightly) acidic… but if it is also charcoal filtered it makes it less acidic… (have to go back to check my references).

• Thanks for the reply dynamiccoach… what model do you have? Most of them on the Oster website don’t say… I guess I could call them and ask.

• An electric skillet! That sounds like a great idea too… I found this one – Krups FBB1 Convection Select Convection Toaster Oven – that goes down to 100F but is unavaiable I found others that say down to 100 degrees… but, I don’t think that is in Fah…

• Raw_mama, Loving Life Cafe in New Oxford, PA is (in my opinion) the “nearest” real raw food restaurant… I haven’t been anywhere else locally. Loving Life Cafe is moving to Hanover! ...which is closer, yeay! I haven’t been to their new place or seen …

• Now that is a great idea… making your own nut mylk bags. We use cheesecloth… but, I was wondering: are these fabric bags reusable? Terylene… sounds like a good fabric that won’t leave lint in my mylk or nut pulp. I hope it’s reusable! If not… is it …

• If you plan to drink 2 green smoothies a day… I recommend drinking plenty of water and/or foods with water (i.e. raw). After 55 day of green smoothies, green smoothies can be constipating.
