• Most of the nutrients remain in juice, but since your body isn’t digesting the fiber the nutrients are absorbed very quickly into your bloodstream. This is why someone who isn’t used to juicing will sometimes get a slight head buzz shortly after the…

• Eating all organic is a big problem for me and I don’t get much variety. First, I shop at one of the last mom & pop stores in town. They really support local farmers but most of it isn’t organic. Most of the organic stuff comes in from CA and is…

• I use one called the Keeper, which is all natural rubber so you aren’t inserting any manmade materials in your body and its production doesn’t negatively impact the environment. I bought two of them about 8 years ago (about $45 at the time) and love…

• For the last 12 years, I can’t imagine that anyone has been more obsessed with food than I have. I thought about it every day and every moment. If I posted the details, it would absolutely flip these goneraw people out. When it started, I weighed 12…

• CHRIS - I never heard that the E.Coli is coming from the fertilizer. If so, that explains the push to irradiate. If it should ever become common knowledge it was the fertalizer, people may question it and we can’t have these chemical companies losin…

• WATERBABY - what kind od water did you start with? well, tap, RO, etc? Do you use the same PH paper for water, urine, and blood?

• Is there anyone out there that could post the PH of their water before and after prilling? If so, that would be really helpful. Interesting that no one selling the product has posted statstics or examples of how prilling changes water PH, or offers …

• WATERBABY - You mention that you thought your prilled water tasted good. Have you noticed any health benefits since you started using it? Have you used it on any plants and, if so, did you see any difference?

• PIANISSIMA - You mix ACV with jalepeno pepper, lemon and ginger in the blender with ice and strain? That sounds really different. Do you have any measurements on that?

• SUSYQ - you are so right and it is very frustrating because it causes more of the problem it purports to eliminate. This happened because the US government became entrenched with right-wing christian zealots. Stopping that funding was a desire if no…

• The need to have large numbers of children changed as we stepped into the industrial revolution. When so many families were farmers, they needed children, and lots of them, to insure they had hands to work the land. Most farms now are industrialized…

• KEVIN7197 - I agree that many of the problems we face are due to the exploitation of natural resources and introduction of unnatural elements into the environment. But these things are directly linked to human overpopulation. In America, we may have…

• In 1998, I took a class on genetics and we spent 2 weeks studying population swings, inclduing the carrying capacity of the planet to sustain human population, At that time, it seemed most scientist believed we had already exceeded the healthy limit…

• The prevailing belief is that if each couple has 2 children we would sustain our population. Hoever, if mostly environmentally-minded persons limit their children, those values will die off much quicker because fewer children will grow to have these…

• I moved to a new city almost 8 years ago. I went to a dentist who told me he did not want his staff to clean my teeth because they were so neglected and had not been cleaned in so long. I explained to him that I had my teeth cleaned every six months…

• I previously used Tom’s or Jasn’s toothpaste, but recently switched to tooth soap. In addition to brushing your teeth, if you have a dental hygentist, that really knows how to clean teeth because so many don’t, clean your teeth at least twice a year…

• LANE - I think eating raw and eating fewer or no processed foods are preferred and since you get both is a raw food program you get it all. I found it easier to understand what enzymes do by watching video of how an enzyme does its job. This VIDEO s…

• I just went to both the Nutiva and Living Harvest websites and they both say their protein powders are cold=pressed and cold=milled. Yay.

  in Are there any raw hemp protein mixes out there? Comment by Meditating
• I think there is a sound argument to promote eating raw food. After all, this is the way nature provided us with food to start with. However, I can see why someone would not want to stick with the program as it is generally advocated. I know I don’t…

• I use them and notice a big difference at how long my produce lasts with them. I noticed the other day at Bed, Bath and Beyond they sell refrigerator disks that do the same thing (supposedly). They are made bu a company that also makes the bags.

• It appears to me that there is one OEM (original equipment manufacturer) for all these stainless steel dehydrators. They all look the same and have the same technical specifications. They may cost more than the Excalibers do, but I think the stainle…
