  • I wasn’t working out at that time… and I work out more now than back in April when this happened. But, it’s good to know working out makes my hair grow longer. Supplements? I took things like OPC3, a probiotic, Noni juice, red super food, green supe…
    in losing hair? Comment by germin8
  • As I was reading your comments, queenfluff, I remembered… that while I was at the Voice in the Wilderness Mission getting a cleanse… my hair grew almost an inch while I was there for 12 days! My hair seemed to have stopped growing before that… and s…
    in losing hair? Comment by germin8
  • Two things come to mind about losing hair and raw food. In Paul Nison’s book, there is mention of people losing their hair because it is switching from “acidic” to “alkaline”. I’m not really sure what this means… I’d have to check the book. In this …

  • I haven’t read the entire topic here… but, while I was riding my bicycle this weekend (for 110+ miles) in the sun… I remembered that a nutritionist said… that when you get sun, make sure you get sun for AT LEAST 15 minutes a day and that the sun sho…
  • For the bags under the eyes, (if you are not already doing this) drink 64 oz of water a day… or ideally, half your weight in ounces per day.
  • Did you ever figure out why this happens?
  • Thanks writeeternity… my next question was going to be: Does cyanide (from apple seeds) accumulate in the body or is it removed? Can it be cleansed out… and by what? So, that last sentence you wrote answered most of my question. I heard it accumulat…
  • That helps a great deal! I’m going to try the canteloupe! I thought apple seeds have cyanide. Papaya seeds for pepper? Wow, we eat a lot of papaya… and never use pepper. This will be interesting to try. I know peach pits are poisonous… they also con…
  • I would add dates. Maybe even some coconut. I tried it with nori rolls… added young coconut and avocado. Yum!
  • Really! WOW, so that IS how you make almond flour. I’m excited now… because I saw a lot of recipes in a few books I have that call for almond flour. I wasn’t about to go buy some! Thanks. I was at a Japanese restaurant this last week (on business) a…
  • Ummmm, thanks for keeping this post alive… in hopes that Kristen would see it and reply. :-)
  • ...hello? :o)
  • The BlendTech doesn’t come with a tamper? Hmmm, I didn’t notice. The VitaMix does come with one, which is the one I got. I didn’t realize BlendTech would fit under my upper cabinet… that’s nice! Did the “whole juice/foods” button work?
  • Hi writeeternity. The VitaMix is noisy too. Although, now I have a good reason to buy a Champion Juicer for ice cream and nut butters… less noise! Noise is not a problem right now… so that’s good. About the ice cream… we make our ice cream and eat i…
  • I made the Cherry Ice Cream- with my VitaMix, and it was a nice smooth texture. I have had a fruit-smoothie-ice-cream from a Champion Juice before. Both ice creams are good and comparable. I’m sure the Blend Tec can do the same thing. Now… I just ne…
  • We made our cherry “ice cream” with our Vita Mix. The DVD that came with the Vita Mix just added fresh fruits, a sweetener, and ice. And voila, “ice cream”. We just got our Vita-Mix… so I have not experimented much with the ice cream… but next time,…
  • It’s easy to clean a blender if you put water and very little dish soap in it and turn it on to High. However, I’m not so sure things like nut butters in a blender are easy to clean…. so maybe Blend Tech would be better here. I still went for the lo…
  • Oh yeah… forgot to mention, I got free delivery too. Saving me about $25! I just googled for a coupon code and found one.
  • They both sound like they are good blenders… and about the same price. So, I went for the one with the better warranty. I thought that was Vita Mix with a 7 full year warranty verses Blendtech’s 3 year warranty with lifetime on coupling and blade. W…
  • Thanks for the info! I am in Shreveport/Bossier City. I just went to the grocery store this morning and got some basic stuff there. So, I have food to last me… but, I did drive by Sunshine Health Food and Healthy Planet. I couldn’t find Earthereal! …
  • Me too; I’ll add my two cents… for the “too thin” people: When I started eating more raw foods… I was about 100 pounds. (I’m 5’2”.) I dropped to about 94 pounds. Then, I went through a 10-day intense cleanse, but I didn’t drop any weight. This was m…

  • I have the 11-cup Cuisinart. It is the only kitchen appliance I would not want to part with. I like it very much! I haven’t used a KitchenAid, but it sounds like that is a good one too…. costs slightly more.
  • Yup, cucumber and sunflower make a great dressing! ...along with some spices and a sweetener. Then there’s the Avocado Kale Salad that uses avocado dressing.

  • Hi Natural Doc. Yes, it is a challenge to find a place that teaches what one believes – whether food or religion. This was just an idea of things that are out there and how they do things… and maybe you can do something similar (not changing beliefs…
  • I agree with Zoe. It seems like the only business is in teaching about raw food and/or being a raw chef. However… I have visited several missions in the United States where they provide natural healing services, promote a vegan lifestyle, and educat…
  • I did not dehydrate them. I will try that next time. Maybe I should have used brown flaxseed instead of gold flaxseed too. Thanks.

  • If you ever figure out how to get the burger-patty recipe to look like the picture she has… let me know! I tried that recipe hoping to get the same results… but mine looked pale.

  • This is great information! Thanks Kandace. In Ani Phyo’s book, she mentions only going up to 105F. From my understanding, her reasoning (although not scientific, or maybe just a way of remembering) was that since her skin can only take a temperature…

  • Thanks for the great advice!
  • As long as the dehydrator can do the work. The Excalibur has the fan on the back, allowing the air to flow through and the moisture out the other side. For dehydrators with the fan on the bottom, the moisture rises up, so the top ones take longer th…
