• Thanks everyone for your comments so far! I am glad am not the only one seeing this. I felt a bit like a “tattle-tale” when I posted the thread. :) I agree that it is and would be difficult to control. (I like your flagging idea Jenny- I go and flag…

• worleyhimself2- Which brand (brands) of MSM do you use? I have tried three so far. David Wolfes, NOW and Vitamin Shoppe. David’s seemed to have the best results and Vitamin Shoppe was pretty good but the NOW brand was not good. It didn’t even seem l…

• charmedlifelady - I agree with you and there is probably no one we can distinguish whether someone has tried the recipe or not – you would just hope people would be honest and try it first! But I will try any recipe I think sounds like I would like …

• Raw_Chocoholic I took the Pau D’ Arco in a tea. You can buy Pau D’ Arco tea at any HFS. I actually made a sun tea out of it and drank it cold since it was summer and sometimes used it in my smoothies instead of extra water. You could do hot tea too.…

• Hi Marichesa, Thanks for that info! Good to know. I actually did buy the DrNatura kit and then ended up returning it unused because I didn’t have time to fit into my life at the time. I figured I would buy it again when I had time (and could afford …

• Wow, I didn’t read the whole transcript (I am kind of afraid too) but when I saw the part about the colon and candida, it freaked me out. Several years ago, I had pre-cancerous polyps removed from my colon (no family history or risks either) – I hav…

• No, they aren’t the exactly same thing. Coconut butter is the meat and the oil together. Coconut oil is just the oil sans meat. The oil is more meant for the skin. Coconut butter is more for eating. But it won’t hurt to use it on your skin. I think …

• Yes, David can be a bit much but he was the first raw foodist to bring raw cacao to the attention of the masses so if you like raw cacao, you have him to thank. :) I met him once. You can tell he was a “partier” in his previous life. :)

• I have seen people giving the komubucha blobs for free on craigslist. My bf has a big one but right now it is in Wisconsin and not where we are now in california. Once he gets the Blob back here, he gives away some “sons of blob” to people.

• Bread. Almost any kind but esp. any “poufy” bread that you can’t make raw. Raw bread are all flat and solid – no pouf or bounce. I do like raw flat breads and they are a good sub for cooked flat breads but there is no good soft raw breads. Sourdough…
