  • Sundried tomatoes? In a green smoothie? Wow, sounds very different from any smoothie I’ve had. Oh yeah, I should check that book… because I just bought it last month. Thanks all.

  • Anybody…?
    in Non-Sweet Green Smoothies Comment by germin8
  • In my opinion, Bastyr is way too expensive. If I were looking for a degree, maybe it wouldn’t seem so expensive. (I already have a degree (non-health-related).) I looked at Huntington College of Health Science and Bridgeport I looked at some others …
    in Nutrition Colleges Comment by germin8
  • Well, I am in a similar situation. Not sure what to choose. But… my thoughts are that degrees in holistic type places may not be a good idea because of the whole codex thing and what might be happening in the next couple years – like not being able …

  • Is $350 too much? I got mine from livingright.com for ~$350. My husband says he found one for less than that… but we had already ordered ours. (both new)

  • Yeah, wow… thanks Bluedolfin.
    in Pie Shapes Comment by germin8
  • Thanks Bluedolfin. Looks like those are nice and easy to take the pie out without destroying the ‘art’. :o) And, thanks for not torturing me!

  • Hmmmm, maybe a picture would help. Like this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/79839992@N00/2035215471/ and this: http://therawtable.com/recipecoll/lemoncr.htm Do I have to do this manually? It looks so uniform.

  • I’m tracking my eating habits… so, I’ll have to check how fat affects my cycle. I had no idea! I’m curious… so, if I wanted to have a longer cycle… is it recommended to eat less fats… or should I not even be thinking that and take the “recommended” …
    in Detox and Birth Control Comment by germin8
  • Interesting. Have you always had a regular cycle before BCPs? Is pregnancy ruled out? One time, I did a cleanse and was on a raw diet… and my longest cycle was 45 days. I thought I was pregnant, but it just came very late. After BCPs, it can take a …

  • Thanks for giving us an update kundalalita. I had no idea you did this more than once! How long will (or can) the papaya cleanse continue for?
    in Try it: Papaya Seed Cleanse Comment by germin8
  • kundalalita, how long did the burning last? How did your stomach take it? (I’m not familiar w/ this cleanse… but I am curious.)
    in Try it: Papaya Seed Cleanse Comment by germin8
  • Fascinating!

  • I don’t wash off the salt. But, I have used about half the salt than the recommended and less kale (about 1/2 to 3/4 the kale).

  • I liked the collard green wraps from the Raw Food Real World book… you can find a link to it from here: http://rawketscience.blogspot.com/2007/05/we-li… I also liked the portabella mushroom marinated with nama shoyu and stuffed with guacamole and ju…

  • Oh absolutely, you should be able to buy nuts from there… and probably best… maybe you can even ask for raw unpasteurized almonds since some farms can sell them locally. (They Almond Board of California mandated pasteurization of almonds.) Good book…
    in simple recipe Comment by germin8
  • I didn’t give you recipe ideas! Some good ones are collard green wraps – filled with veggies and a probably a nut sauce inside or for dipping. Also, wilted kale is so easy.. but you may have a hard time finding agave. You’ll have to order that… but …

  • Oh, you wont’ find raw nuts/seeds in Wal-mart or at least not the one’s I’ve been too. I’ve never heard of Brookshires… but, is there a farm stand nearby? Or sign up for community supported agriculture (CSA) nearby. How about bulk ordering your nuts…

  • I didn’t go to a raw, vegan health cleaning program. It was vegan cooked & raw. I went to Eden Valley in Loveland, CO. Looking back (from what I know now), it was a mild cleanse. They had vegan cooking classes and one vegan raw food class. Plus,…
    in Raw Food Education Comment by germin8
  • I’ve been thinking about this for months! I thought… maybe the Living Light Culinary Institute… or the Raw Vegan Network’s raw food certification program – on your own time and only $300. Same for the CHI one, but no certification. I did not learn m…

  • www.google.com :o) What can I say… it’s either a raw food website… or Google. Everything I ever found is on Google. ;-) hehe
    in What non-raw websites do you like? Comment by germin8
  • Awesome. Are you using chickpeas? ...or a substitute? Can’t wait to see.
    in Help: Need Indian Recipes! Comment by germin8
  • Just an update. The class is turning into a heart-healthy class. The update is here: http://goneraw.com/forums/2/topics/2877 I guess I won’t be making an all-Indian recipes class.
    in Help: Need Indian Recipes! Comment by germin8
  • Thank you all for your responses, tips, & hints! I can’t wait to try them! WoW!
    in Help: Need Indian Recipes! Comment by germin8
  • Yes, I did a search from the main page… and saw the recipes… but, why isn’t “Indian” in the “Browse Recipes by Tag” on the Home page? Or in the “Recipe Categories” in the Recipes page? Can I navigate to the URL you sent me, http://goneraw.com/recipe…

  • Oh, we are on day 28 of green smoothies… and this mornings has been the best – several cups of spinach (about 8, not jam-packed), 1 mango, few blueberries, few raspberries, few blackberries, 1 strawberry, a tablespoon of OJ, and about 2 cups of wate…

  • From what I understand, enzyme activity is increased the longer you germinate. And, most seeds has the most nutrition when it sprouts a tail 1/4” long. To double check, I checked Dr. Howell’s Enzyme Nutrition book… page 125… and an example he gave w…

  • Hmmm. What causes curdling… would adding something anti-bacterial help? Say… raw honey? (Some argue never to use it, for the bees sake… and of course, with all the missing bees… it may not be a good idea.) Maybe a preservative type ingredient? Lemon…

  • I grind them and put them in… or if the blender is good enough to break them open, you’ll be fine. Mustard greens. The same thing happened to us! We added more of another greens and added more fruit and water. It was tolerable, but still spicy. We’v…
