  • For how many days? I am not sure I would last very long. But, I may want to try a juice fast after I attend Victoria Boutenko’s lecture (about green smoothies, I think) on Dec 9. I also heard good things about a grape juice “fast” (but you had to su…

  • Thanks so much! I thought a pinch was smaller than a smidgen… I guess I was wrong. Thanks for the “measurement approximations”... helpful. :o)

  • A sad loss. It made me think of how important “other things” are that affect our health. It’s not just what we eat that keeps us healthy. It’s more than that – nutrition, water, exercise, sunshine, air, rest, temperance, trust in God. Realizing that…

  • Some of those places are out-of-the-way for us, but Thanks for all the info! If we need something to do… we’ll have to check it out. We will at least drive by that other restaurant/spa to see if they have anything raw. I’ll keep you posted if I find…

  • Anjali is a yoga place too… maybe it’s the same one. I found it listed on this site: http://rawinaz.com/rawarizona.html ...and other sites. They say “100% raw”. Some sites say, opening in 2003… others say opening in 2004. Maybe it’s still not open. …

  • SocaL… do you mean you froze germinated nuts? Or did they still have their enzyme inhibitors? I can see how the latter would freeze well. Not sure about nutrients or enzymes in frozen germinated nuts though. I find freezing to be “okay” for us. We d…

  • Sulphur. More like cabbage, brocooli, cauliflower… sulphur-containing foods. I didn’t think food combinging (without these foods) would cause that. I’m curious.

  • Sorry, I haven’t read the posts… except for the first one. But, isn’t it difficult to show nutrition fact when the nurtients (vitamins/miners) in food depend on the soil the food is grown in. Someone correct me if I’m wrong. This confuses me and I h…

  • I like the article. Especially the part about “it’s probably detoxification”. I don’t agree when people explain “symptoms” to be a detoxification of the raw diet. It doesn’t always make sense. I’m not saying it can’t happen… I’m sure it happens ofte…

  • I haven’t done that cleanse… but, I’m about to start a mini-day cleanse this weekend. As for acne, I’m sure a steambath (hot-cold bath) would help open up those pores and clear your skin.

  • Canned food is boiled/heated. It is not raw. Same for jarred foods. The word raw can be confusing. If something is labelled “raw” they could just mean the unprocessed, raw ingredient (but could be heated). So, you have to look for “raw” and “living”…
