• Well, I suppose you can freeze at as warm a temperature as you can freeze with. :o) I made a mango cheesecake whose crust is made of processed almonds… and it freezes quite well. Actually, it’s only been there for a few days… but I haven’t noticed a…

• Prepared raw food usually lasts 3-5 days… make sure it smells good… and then, tastes good.

• Yes, I had improved digestion as well… that was at the beginning of the green smoothies. But, now… almost two months of doing this… it’s not as good as it was before. I’m wondering why there is a difference now. My husband and I share the green smoo…

• Does it matter? Well, (my opinion)... let’s forget about the enzymes for a bit. To be healthy is more than just food… it’s nutrition, exercise, sunlight, rest, air, water, temperance, and trust). And the way these items are done… brings health. Toxi…

• Anyone know? Maybe irish moss capsules don’t exist… I already made the mango cheesecake and used agar instead. I blended the agar in boiling water (yes, it has to be boiling) and waited until it cooled some… then added the rest of the ingredients fo…

• Thank you all for the reply and the advice from those that do have this blender. I will tell my in-laws… they’re not going to like to hear this. They don’t want to chop or carry a heavy glass blender-container.

• RawVoice, I checked that thread… and that’s just awful. I’m not sure what to tell my in-laws. They want a good affordable blender with a non-glass container.

• I’ve read about Brazier’s products on Get Fresh magazine. If the living food used to make the product was never heated about ~118F during the process it would be considered raw & living. Except for nuts/seeds/grains, if they are not germinated, …

• Is it a Thai young coconut (white/green) or a mature coconut (brown)? Open it up… if the water of the young thai coconut tastes good, then the coconut is good. If the water tastes bad, throw it out (someone posted this response a long while ago). As…

• Is this for a raw group? I would take a dessert. It looks more like ‘real’ food for the SAD eaters (unlike raw bread). If you make something heavy like a raw bread or loaf, raw food eaters typically get small servings. On the other hand, the SAD eat…

• The substitute for carob is not a 1-to-1 ratio. You need about 1/4 the carob if your using it as a substitute for cacao. Cacao really has no caffeine? Unbelievable. I had no idea.

• Thanks for the link JoyceH. I am sure it will be very helpful (haven’t read it yet). I had heard about the phases of “cleansings” or “healing crisis”. I couldn’t remember if there were 3 or 5… but, I remember the last phase was a cellular cleansing …

• I’m pretty sure the hot air popper gets quite hot to pop the kernels. After all, putting a kernel in the dehydrator at 118F is not going to pop the kernel. But, is the actual kernel raw itself? I don’t know.

• Calcium: Yes, under stress… the adrenals produce cortisol (sp?)... which is balanced by calcium. (learned this at a nutrition seminar – CNHP).

  in Brain Food Comment by germin8

• how about foods with omega-3,6,9 like flaxseed/oil, walnuts, hemp (can get it from Whole Foods). Also borage, evening primrose oil. P.S. I just realized you posted about sweet craving. I haven’t tried fish oil. But, I know someone that sells a certa…

  in Brain Food Comment by germin8
• Some good things for the brain are omega-3,6,9… like walnuts, flax. Also, more than 15 minutes a day of sunshine and going to bed early (before 10P) is good for the seratonin/melatonin levels. Bluedolfin seems to sell some interesting supplements. .…

• Flax is what helps things stick together. This is probably why it’s found in many cracker/bread recipes. Quinoa will probably not be a good substitute if you need the bread to stick. But, maybe if you blend ingredients in a food processor (maybe ble…

• Greens have amino acids… the building blocks of protein. Not all greens have all the amino acids for a ‘complete protein’... so vary your greens. Nuts have protein (especially after germinating).

• Yes, it’s not hereditary. I heard once, that hair loss comes from the mother’s side of the family (i.e. if any of her family members had it… her children could have it.) Not sure how true that was… but, if that were true… the way I would see that is…
