  • Oh no! I just bought Siggs for the whole family—is aluminum bad too! I thought they were stainless. let me try to link you to this tumbler. i wish there were more pic of it so we could dissect it, but use me as the guinnea pig. it has shipped so i’l…
  • Ooh. Good idea. I also use the wide mouth canning jars for all my nuts, etc. I just purchased 2 stainless tumblers from Amazon with a hole for my stainless straw—love those things! I’ll let you know how it works out.
  • Braggs and Spectrum are raw and will say raw unpasturized in the ingredient list. 365 organic brand is not raw.

  • there’s many, Moth. You want one for your general area. If you search seasonal eating and charts for your state, you should come up with many that you can print out and keep with you. Start at www.sustainablescoop.com. If you scroll down to about th…

  • All organic with the only exception being lemons. I can get them organic when I go to Whole Paycheck, but I’ve been doing much better for produce at my local Fresh Market. Can we all gag at the price of organic frozen berries this week!!!!! My littl…

  • I’ve been watching this one to see where it goes for a little while and I got to thinking…If I knew then what I know now—I have 3 amazing teens who know where their food comes from and what the food ate before it goes into their bodies. They are act…
  • I cannot have fruit with my fats= bloating and gas for me. Apparently the fats keep the fruit too long in the system so it ferments. Try having the fruit in the am only. I also have realized I need to fuel the day only—big fruit/green smoothie aroun…
  • Yes. i also tried to find “open comments”, but i could not find that. Is there an easier path?
  • I think many of us have been in a similar place. I find if all i do is make sure my food is 100% raw and allow myself a few sips of coffee in the am if i want it or a glass of wine weekly, i don’t feel deprived of anything. When i try to achieve thi…
  • Yes. Not raw, even when labelled so. Interesting article about all that it’s “watered down” with in Living Nutrition. I am personally terrified of high fructose corn syrup and Once a had a Maragarita that was amde with so-called agave—It was HF corn…
    in agave nectar-- raw?? Comment by lzhpt
  • There is an interesting article in Living Nutrition about cleanses and how some are especially dangerous. Point of the article—that natural hygiene is just that—it takes care of everything—we can look at posts from people who after a time on raw hav…
  • I have to grind the flax before using it in cracker recipes—just can’t digest it whole.
  • Fist—how many miles are you running? Salt would not be an issue until you were upwards of 16 miles or 3 hours out there. If you’re dragging, you may be having too much fat in the diet B4 the run. Try having all fruit before you head out there (30-60…
  • Fruitarians eat greens and more than you would think. 80-10-10 by Douglas Graham is a good reference, but it is not for everyone. Living Nutrition is a Raw food publication mostly written by Natural Hygiene fruitarians. After 2 years visiting these …

  • kminty—I am a walking skin cancer risk—so very fair, but I just don’t burn at all anymore since being raw. germin8—yes I remember it has to do with the sun boiling the toxins that come to the surface in the sun—so when you eat as many anti-oxidants …
  • Way to go, Grassdude!!! One of my patients is doing this after reading Dr. Cousens’ book. He has been able to relate the same—the fruits and veggies do not raise his sugar, but if he has any meat or dairy the sugar spikes—the exact OPPOSITE of what …
  • After my experience at Bonefish—I may never drink again! About 1x/month I enjoy a Ciroc vodka cosmopolitan. Ordered one Sat., and it tasted like cleaning fluid! Everyone agreed something really horrible was in there. Bartender made another according…
  • You know, i recently purchased SIGGS for the whole family. At this point they are new and i’m not worried. i trust my sense of smell. I can tell a chemical miles away. I have stuck my nose into this bottle and nothing. The water tastes much better. …
  • I would also like to know a little more about it. My powdered greens have Spirulina in it. I use Barleens. I make superfood chocolate balls almost every afternoon with it and add some extra greens to my already green smoothie every morning. I know i…

  • MOTH- Are you going to use an Aquajogger or swim laps? i can’t remember if you are training for a distance event. You’ll love it anyway. A client of mine told me about Aqua ears—An underwater MP3. That’s what I needed.

  • For me, I find if something is not truly raw (like the almonds i soaked last night and made this great almond milk with), I will get immediately tired—seriously! i will have to go right to bed. It passes in 2 hours, but I’ve learned. Unsoaked nuts w…

  • You know…I’ve been there. The first 30 day raw I did, i lost 14 pounds in 30 days. then i fell off and got back on 4 months later, having gained back 7 pounds. Then again, i lost fairly quickly those 7, plus 5 more in 60 days. Now I’m hooked—i’ve st…

  • Yes sad:(:(:(. I made almond mylk today with pasturized almonds and fell asleep in 20 min! it didn’t pass for 2 hours. That’s when i said—I’m really missing out on something good here. My walnuts and sunnies are fine, but everything elsesnooze-time!

  • If you have lemons and olive oil, you have salad dressing. Add a little Nama Shoyu if you have some. There are great dressing recipes on this site. The herbed Vinaigrette is my favorie. One of the BEST things about salads on the Raw plan is the dres…
  • Yes. Me to. Pre-packaged baby carrots taste like soap.
  • Don’t get me started! Don’t miss King Corn-a PBS independent film that will have your running so far from corn. These 3 college students go to Iowa to buy an acre of land to grow corn—the government pays them to grow it, The huge truckloads of ammon…
