• Are you drinking enough water? Getting exercise? How about prunes (soak them first!).

• Zoe, Chad Sarno’s website is amazing. But his 70-page book, Vital Creations, lists for $18.95 and costs over $12 to ship. Do you know another place to get it? I can’t find it on Amazon.com. Never mind, I found it here: http://rawfoodinfo.com/ There’…

• Get another naturopath. I was turned on to raw many years ago by a naturopath. He wasn’t against occasional cooked grains, beans, or steamed veggies, but he felt you get your vitality from raw.

• I have an open plan house like amysue and the 9-tray was too loud for me. I sold it and got a 4-tray instead. I’m a single person living alone. The 4-tray is usually plenty for me and it’s much quieter. I have a door to my bedroom and when I close t…

• I have a Tribest Personal Blender and I love it. I use it for sauces and dressings, small batches of things, and to grind flax seed, spices, and other seeds. It doesn’t get hot and shut off. It’s not powerful enough to make nut milk or green smoothi…

• Today is day 10 and I feel excellent – very clear, alert, and quiet. I’m not at all hungry and don’t feel like breaking the fast. I’ll be traveling later in the month, though, and don’t want to be on the MC and possibly running to the bathroom every…

• Day 8 for me and feeling pretty good. This has been a heavy detox for me. Yesterday my sense of smell got way sharper and more alive. Very nice. I did a fast about 30 years ago that changed my vision substantially – colors got brighter. The change l…

• Day 6 and I’m feeling kinda punk. Tired and achey. This may be becos the phone woke me too early. Meditating, I’ve tried the SWF a bunch of times. I drink the water and it doesn’t flush out. Instead I feel like I’ve had a bunch of salt – poisoned an…

• Hi, everyone, I haven’t been following this thread but this is day 5 for me. I don’t do the SWF because I never expell the water, but I do just fine with the tea. In fact, I can only drink the tea once a day. I’m also drinking an occasional green sm…

• Now it’s working well for me too. Keeping my fingers crossed that it will continue. It’s SOOOO nice to have this site back. Glad to hear you had a good holiday, Kandace. This is an awesome site. Thank you so much for all you do.

• I’m so glad to see the site up again, but it’s still painfully slow for me.

  in Bariani olive oil non-organic question Comment by greenie
• This is the reply from Bariani: Our olive oil is “registered” organic with the State of California, which is the last step before being “certified” by a third party company. We can state “organic” on the bottle only when we get the certification.

• Alix, They’re a small small company and it can take a while for them to respond to VM or email. I love their oil. I suspect it’s organic but they haven’t gone to the trouble of having it certified. I’ll let you know what I find out.

  in Bariani olive oil non-organic question Comment by greenie
• Bariani is my favorite, too. I always thought it was organic. I’ve emailed the company to find out if it is. I’ll post the answer here.

• I love my blendtec, too. I’ve had it for years. It’s wonderful. My friends just ‘upgraded’ to the blend-tec from their Vitamix and love it. They say it’s so much more powerful, they never need a tamper, it’s easier to use, and it fits under their ca…

• AFAIK, what’s considered normal in all these tests is the average of what people test. It’s not what is optimal for health. There are exceptions. For instance, a friend with diabetes tells me that within the past few years the blood sugar level cons…

• I make a Ranch variation all the time. Cashews and/or macadamia nuts, garlic, salt, lemon juice, water, olive oil, some fresh cracked pepper, oregano, dill, a little onion. It’s creamy and delicious. Sorry I don’t have measurements, never use them.

• Either K-Tec (Blend-Tec) or Vitamix are well worth it. I’m of the K-Tec religion ;-). I have friends who just ‘upgraded’ from the Vitamix to the K-Tec and they are in heaven. The K-Tec is more powerful, easier to use, fits under the cabinets. There …

• You should let it grow 5”-7” and then start harvesting it. Take scissors and cut off the grass about 1/2”-1” from the root. Don’t try to cut too low down the plant. Ann Wigmore, the wheat grass lady, believed you got the most benefit from the juice,…
