• Here’s the advertising idea: In May 2006, the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) threatened to file a lawsuit against Cadbury Schweppes for labeling 7 Up as “All Natural”[40] or “100% Natural”,[41] despite containing high-fructose corn…

• Basically, they are saying that corn is not bad for you, which is the truth in their advertising, it doesn’t mention why turning corn into high fructose corn syrup makes it bad for you.

• You could try soaking and sprouting, just be sure it’s alive and sproutable. Jeez, don’t break your teeth on it though lol. Have you tried a “rice” replacement. I love one from the Jicama, then there’s a recipe for one from a cauliflower. Sometimes …

• So my question is, did you remove the chickpeas from the water after you soaked them or have they been sitting in water all week?

• I believe it’s a plant, (related to the carrot??) that grows on cliffs and in salt marshes. It’s supposed to be good for your kidneys and digestion and taste really good.

• You can try olive oil or coconut oil for the eczema, we use that here for my girls and myself. Put it on AFTER showering in warm water to soften the skin and then massage it in every night, it will ease the itching and scaling and help it heal.

• I made some burgers similar to the carrot-pecan, using the carrots, a zuchinni in place of the mushrooms, substituting pumpkin seeds for the pecans (they are sooo expensive out here so I went with what I had), adding 1/4 cup whole flax seeds, 1/4 cu…

• I cannot say either way about the frozen juices, but yes, in the U.S. juice is pasteurized to be shelved. When in doubt, just go without or ask the company, most are more than happy to let you know their “Sanitation” and processing techniques.
