  • Hi chicagomama, here is a link on sprouting in general http://www.goneraw.com/forums/2/topics/5133 in my experience, sprouting is much easier than everyone thinks. I have had only one bad experience and that was from oat grain that I have now learne…
  • Ditto here, ate some ezichiel bread today and not only did my scalp inflame with psoriasis but my nasal passages inflamed as did my throat. I’m all phlemy. Blah, no mas any time soon.
  • Hi Bitt, if you have been on the meds for a while, your body will need time to adjust, like saturina and ex-pat katie have said. You should definitely go slowly, and speak with your physician about it, he can even prescribe the meds in lower doses a…
  • Bravo to you for making such a huge and wonderful change for you and your family. Don’t beat yourself up too much for backsliding, it happens at the best and worst times. I went smoke free for 5 months, and then, had a cigarette out of the blue. I j…

  • Hi superkat92, I have been anorexic and bulimic, and struggled with bulimia for the last 15 years or so, it has only been under control when I am under control. I have to control it behaviorally mostly and this includes diet. It started in high scho…
  • Hi germin8, I got chlorella from my local tiny teeny health food store in the form of pills. I put it in my cilantro smoothies! I get bunches of the cilantro from the store and just eat in in my smoothie from Sarma Melngalis. http://gliving.tv/green…
  • Hi roodye, there is a leniency it seems with sweetners, spices and some other items. Feel free to substitute any other product at your will. Most spices are not raw, and maple syrup is definitely NOT a raw product. There are some raw proponents who …
  • Welcome thecavsman, you sound sooooo incredibly knowledgeable already, this is going to be a great addition to the goneraw community.
  • Pianissima is so right. Don’t leave yourself hanging without any other options. Make sure you have meals prepared and smoothie options available. You can do it, and believe me, plenty of high energy, athletic individuals are raw and not only survive…
  • Hi Misscute, just to let you know, i have been dealing with eating disorders for like 15 years, and also have gerd/acid reflux due to it. When I first started raw, I couldn’t stomach EVOO (still can’t in large amounts), zuchinni, squash, or sprouted…
  • To tell the absolute truth, I use my magic bullet more than my other blender/mixer/choppers (got it for mom’s day as a gag cause my girls LOVE the info mercial and my hubby got a kick out of them watch it). It is just what suzyq said, I highly recom…

  • I was checking out the cleanses, I’m always leary if I haven’t checked it with others as well and since I haven’t done either, I can’t say for sure, but they sound harmless and effective. If you do them, give a heads up on how they go.
  • That’s why I love this site, it’s inspirational, I was lost the entire time it was down! Anyway, I am just about to make my morning green and thought I would check in, think I’m going to try your throw together nycgrrl, sounds yummy!
  • HMMMM, well, I’ve been trying to have at least one every morning, and my favorite so far is this green beast with a handful of kale, 2 or 3 handfuls of spinach, a handful of parsely, a pear, grapefruit juice or oj, and a tropical addtion of either p…
  • Hhmmm, well Aziah, you may not appreciate what I have to throw at you as far as the peanut gallery goes, but from a behavioral standpoint concerning your youngest, the mood swings may be caused by a behavior/reaction/repeat thing that occurs. I’m no…
  • When I first went all the way I ate my way through a date orchard and forty pounds of almonds. Anything heavy and filling, it seemed like all I did was EAT! Then I figured I would have all this free energy and ended up sleeping on the couch at 4pm f…
  • Agar agar will thicken things, as well as psyllium powder and flax seed.
  • I have tried the mono eating with fruit, and I started out all tingly and fresh with so much energy and in the end really crashed from the fructose. I know that fruit and veggies these days have been so hybridized that they are sweeter,like 30 times…
  • waterbaby12347 I went for about 6 months without shaving (when I swore off dating and sex, it’s easier not to invite someone home when you know that youve got a jungle in your pants) It got pretty bad, but did rub off in spots. Boy was it a trial to…

  • Ditto on the Dr. Bronners, I like the way it smells too! It’s like yum!

  • I’m with badnews completely, it’s like when you pull something out of the fridge and go “hmmmm, wonder if this is still good?” When in doubt…
  • I’m with pianissima on this, eventually you get over anything that takes a whole lotta prep unless you adore it. Everyone really has their own sensitivities, and you will find you develop new ones as you go along. I know you cannot eat raw fiddlehea…
  • Congratulations on day one down!!! How do you feel, what did you eat????
    in Finally ready!! Comment by harmonylia
  • Hmmm, well…I must be the freak here, I have noticed a reduction in cramps, but I’m sure my hubby would like to see my mood swings disappear. I have noticed the 24 hour period prior to starting, I eat like a mad woman. Anything CHOCOLATE. I just down…
  • mmmorgans, oh you poor thing, I know how you feel, I have had the worst ears my entire life, just busted an ear drum 3 years ago, horrid. As long as you have no discharge from the ear (That would mean a leak and a hole, and a trip to the doctor) the…

  • You know, elizabethh, I had the same thing happen when I tried to make bagels, I tossed them cause I couldnt stand the sour taste. But as for safety Im not sure.
  • :P Lol, germin8 it’s so funny, I was thinking the Hot Dogs you mentioned as well. I think a great raw dessert is always a hit as well, like the apple crumb pie/struedel on this site.

  • HEEHEE rachel_akiko I once caught my daughter in the pantry with her little hand in the PB jar all the way up to her elbow, a girl after my own heart.
  • Oh, BeTheChange, I wish you great luck in keeping nut free, I was PB dependent for my entire life, could eat it straight out of the jar with my bare hand if you let me. I support anyone in doing what they need to be happier and healthier. I have giv…
  • I know, there are days when the coffee is my treat. I switched to one cup in the morning, then it got to be like, well, it’s not even that good, so I drank half the cup and now, it’s only a coffee morning when my hubby and I take a special morning o…
