  • Awesome. I checked out your blog… and read it all. That is a great idea about the $10 for each of your children to buy whatever (raw) they wanted. And …wow, Abe is focused on the game. It’s got to be the food. ;-) Thanks for sharing.
  • Here’s my response about hair loss. Basically… eat flax and try green smoothies (with tons of water because I find the high fiber makes them constipating) or green juicing. Victoria Boutenko mentioned she uses a flax shampoo. I haven’t tried that; I…
    in Thinning hair Comment by germin8
  • Thanks! I know people who could really use this information. Aniken has a website and recommends the Oster Beehive.
  • hehe bluedolphin I only pointed that out… because I really don’t know what amino acids are in each one. I just read it… remembered it… and that’s it… didn’t research it. The book didn’t say either, so, research it. As with all things… EVEN non-colle…
  • Just my 2 cents: Green beans and almonds make a complete protein! (Read in a college nutrition book.)
  • As for the 25% fat and 75% protein… the article was written by Dara Moskowitz Grumdahl title “Eat It Raw!” It was about Klein & Trotters Raw un-cookbook… and Klein made that comment.
  • You can start here on Sprout People I am assuming these are sprouted seeds (not dormant). Also, nutrient density depends on the amount of time sprouted (length of tail). And, something more to think about. “A roasted nut is 75% fat and 25% protein…”…
  • Anybody else…?
  • Thanks for the info RubyLaine. It didn’t find much either. Does anyone know about the property in those areas… like is there “spacious” land to have my greenhouse and garden? Are there bike paths around town? Are the adirondacks within view? How are…
  • There is only some denaturization of enzymes. On average 5% nutrition is lost when you freeze. Click here: FREEZING, DRYING, COOKING, AND REHEATING See this topic: http://goneraw.com/forums/2/topics/6492 BTW, you can’t kill enzymes.
  • I’m here beany, I’m here! Life is so busy these days… I can’t even get on Gone Raw as much as before. I come here once a week just read some posts… and barely have time to give my ‘2 cents’. But today I saw your post… and well, here I am. Typically,…

  • Anybody…? :o) I found two more books Living in the Raw and Kirsten’s raw desserts Are any of these and the one’s mentioned before favorites of anyone… or recommended? Hopefully they don’t have much cacao… but, I’m looking for my next book to buy. Wh…
  • Ah yes! How could I forget about the environment. I don’t think the teflex in a dehydrator gets hot enough to emit the toxins, but it does get “creases” from bending and folding… and I’m guessing some could be release there. I, too, wondered why the…
    in teflex???? Comment by germin8
  • Yes, I’ve pointed this out before. Teflex has teflon. You can use brown parchment paper. I use both. I get the impression (from what I’ve read by others), that a little “toxin” from plastics or whatever is out there (toxic air, etc) wouldn’t cause a…
    in teflex???? Comment by germin8
  • I thought you were just interested in a (raw) meat diet… and I thought, just look at the Atkins diet. But you are asking about raw meat, fruits and fats, while excluding vegetables. Have you read Dr. Powell’s Enzyme Nutrition book. He talks about es…
    in The Wai Diet Comment by germin8
  • james3112 About your original post: It claims that we do not need vegetables, grains, and beans as they contain substances that inhibit digestion and/or are toxic. Food processing (such as cooking) is done to make these foods edible. Agreed. However…

  • Oh, I misunderstood your question the first time. Thanks for clarifying. I think your palate’s hypothesis is correct. :o) The banana is truly a strong flavor. Coconuts are not cheap, but they do provide a smooth flavor. Some ice creams can be made w…
  • That’s intersting. Well, I don’t know… but Purely Decadent came out with a Coconut Milk ice cream (sweetened with agave) which has a chocolate flavor and it went perfectly well together… especially with chocolate almond milk and sweet dark cherries.…
  • I agree with springleaf, but roasting nuts will ‘neutralize the inhibitor’... it will break down the inhibitor. It is not necessary to soak roasted nuts (pasteurized). You would truly be soaking them instead of germinating. BTW, enzyme inhibitors he…
  • Carmentina. I don’t know how much is too much. I guess you could “feel it”. In Fats that Heal, Fat that Kill you skin would turn a certain way… (I have to check my book). But, don’t forget to balance it with Omega-6. The ratio is different for diffe…
  • I don’t have a recommendation on an herb to start your cycle… but if nobody has mentioned this, couldn’t you use NFP between now and when you get your normal cycle/period? You just track your fertile/infertile days. (Just be careful with this method…
    in I want my period! Comment by germin8
  • I’ve been to Cousen’s and Karyn’s. Karyn’s wins! The food was just better… and the selection was… everywhere! You could even take to-go-food. I wanted to try EVERYTHING! Raw ice cream, tamales, the buffet, rejuvelac (sold by the gallon)... it’s just…
  • beany I provided a link to Russell’s website in my original post. (It’s in a different text color than the rest of the text.) Maybe it didn’t work for you before, but just thought to let you know… so you don’t miss other’s links. carrie I didn’t see…
  • You should also check out Everlasting Life Cafe. I’ve never been there, just heard about it. If you go to a thai place, like Sala Thai you can order the garden rolls and papaya salad. A mostly raw dish. Mediterranean places have tabouli, shirazi sal…
  • Yes, I figured it would be for such reasons. Which makes me wonder why green powdered drinks are sold. hehe Well, isn’t there a saying that your best customer is an educated customer. But really, I’m not asking to have unnecessary things removed… it…
  • Thanks for checking into that, Bluedolphin. I knew I could ask you. Yes, that is interesting that it is only included in the tablet form. And, true, it could have been the safest at the time. Safe or not, if it’s just for color… why bother?
  • Bluedolphin: Quick question, (btw, I like how you bold the names…) why is it that Ambrotose Plus even contains titanium dioxide? It says it’s for color, but I read something that made me wonder of its safety. Ambrotose is one of the recommended prod…
  • Oooo, Bluedolphin knows all about glyconutrients. I’m sure she’ll be able to answer your questions. She has a few interesting articles too. A few of my friends sell them too… and they say they feel better better… and I’ve heard good things about gly…
  • What & How often do you use yours for? And how long do you run it? I have heard about the rubber bands breaking. Fortunately, I have not had a problem with mine. I use mine for grinding seeds and blending small amounts of dressings. I have never…
  • Kandace, this may be a coincidence (maybe not), but Sierra Club AGAIN had a GREEN TIP of the month that mentioned raw foods and it had a link to goneraw.com. Of course, this is great news. But the last time they did that… Gone Raw was down… with all…
