  • This sounds exciting to test. i’m just embarking on this slightly different take on raw and am always using my body as a vessel for experimentation (all in a good way). I like the objectivity this would provide. Thanks for the push, Winona.
  • Having transitioned BACK into Gabriel Cousens’ Phase 1 foods from raw everything and experiencing some raw slumping after 2.5 years raw, I can say these stage 1 foods are ALL alkaline. I don’t test. i just go by how I feel and i literally feel like …
  • i did find it difficult, I guess because there are so many mixtures, but I did know what wasn’t working and i did know when i first went raw, i made a lot of nut pates, did lots of sprouting and i think if i ate fruit at all it was early in the morn…
  • No coincidence, dodo. i remember that was one of the first things to go after a couple of weeks. First the tremendous mood shift, the clarity and then noticing i didn’t hurt all the time. I don’t get sore from strenuous workouts either.

  • In G. Cousens’ book “There is a Cure For Diabetes”, he quotes the results of several studies on the changes to specific foods after microwaving only to the point of being considered “cooked”. The excerpt from the book that I have, cuts that informat…
  • Why so sarcastic, ungrateful? Ligit. question, considering the sweet potato. I’d steam it. The microwave would seriously harm the potato.
  • Blender!! You just can’t get the consistency right for sauces, dressings and smoothies with a FP. Also, There’s the time factor. A good High speed blender makes a smoothie out of wood blocks in 30 sec! Nutmylks, dressings, sauces, dips, spreads. I’v…
  • That’s just it..I’ve always gone with my gut and i so admired Obama’s passion. I’m sure he’s tired. The country’s gone to hell since he started his campaign and now some of the issues he’s been talking about since writing his book are well…old. We a…
  • I got absolutely nothing out of that debate. Obama had secured my vote until last night. Who are these people anymore? Obama has sold out to whomever is stuffing his pockets. He’s even changed his tune on his energy plan if you listen closely. Nader…
  • Oh…END of DW crush. He’s dead food to me now.I’d like to run w/ Tim van Orden, but that’s about it. Sergei is way too young for me.
  • When i first went raw, I think I harbored a secret desire to rip off DW’s hemp poncho. KAIT-not digging the too thin durianrider, but I do like the name and I like his attitude. Some of these dudes just look like they need a good bath…that could be …
  • Branwyn- where oh where is Ardesmond? He’s a fellow Atlantan and loves the blue-green algae! i’ll try to find that post for you. Gosh-way too many posts, but it was on the joys of lake Klamath Blue green Algea. There is a reference i know in Rainbow…
  • My favorite for recipes-Renee Underkoffler’s Living Cuisine.The dressing s are outrageously delicious. I also come back to my first book, The Raw Transformation by Wendy Rudell. I still love that one. There is a small amount of steaming by Renee, bu…
  • KAIT-there’s just something so gross about putting a gob of oil in a perfectly good smoothie. Plus combining fruit and fat=feeling bad for me. The longer I’ve been raw, the simpler my smoothies have become. I don’t like putting Maca or cacao in them…
  • Here’s my exercise for a typical week. I spin (not leisurely) 6 hours/week, running 1 hr/week, Pilates 2 hours/week, Vinyassa yoga 2hrs /week, GYROTONIC (I’ll send you to www.gyrotonic.com so you can see what that is) 1-2 hrs/week. I have a very act…
  • jenoz-I haven’t read about metabolic typing, but i have read about Ayurvedic doshas and I fall into that pitta/vata type-more pitta. I never could do all fruit-tried that-no way, but i also cannot put fat in my smoothie in the am nor could i eat a g…
  • LMFAO!!!! Oh my…now that’s my girl! Thank you for that high point of my day!
  • I love this and received it today from many-didn’t check the math either before forwarding it on to many. I guess Sarah Palin must’ve sent it out! Sorry…I had to do it again, didn’t I? but it sure sounded good.
  • jyceH-Sorry so late to reply. I located that link after I sent the wrong one to you. It is www.thedailyrawcafe.com, an excellent site and the Red Pepper Aioli is under “spreads.” I’m bad at linking, but I will try it. http://www.thedailyrawcafe.com/…
  • Joyceh-my all-time favorite sauce (also dip, also thick dressing) is Red Pepper Aioli, which is not mine-got it off an indirect link from www.therawdessert.com this week: 1C soaked sunflower seeds (I have also used them sprouted, but you only need t…
  • Well as much as I think that is so horrible, i’m also quite skeptical of others asking for money to help these people. be careful out there.
  • That’s been quite a discussion here since there are NO raw almonds in the US anymore that can be shipped. You must pick them up directly from the grower. However, i also had the same experience as Kevlar. i paid more $ for organic unpasturized almon…
  • A little funny- Before going raw, I really did not use avos. I didn’t really ever find a good one and I didn’t like the texture. After about 2 weeks raw, one day i woke up and out of nowhere i HAD to get some avocado. To this day, i have one every d…

  • i also cannot. Help?
  • Absolutely the Macoun, followed by the Mcintosh—when they are so in season they snap when you bite them!!! OH! The Organic McIntosh’s are here at WF. Where are the Mcouns? They usually have a very short season. Add some raw caramel sauce and capowww…

  • Thanks! vegan2raw-yes, they eat LOTS of meat, though kids are funny. i don’t know how much of that he eats. A few years ago, they did see a good naturopath and he went gluten-free and dairy free. he had a good probiotic at that time as well. I think…
  • Just re: water. A good rule of thumb is drink 1/2 your body weight in ounces of water daily. Add 16 oz. for every pound you lose while exercising (which means doing one ex. session with no water to find out). Add 12oz. of water for every caffeinated…
  • My step-dad had numerous UTIs and on one test it was discovered he was spilling cancer cells into the urine. It took 3 CT scans before they discovered the cancer. He is 83 and made initially a good decision not to undergo treatment since the surgeon…
  • Anyone faced with the myriad of cancer decisions should own a copy of “Healing cancer” a DVD by the docs at Cleveland Clinic available at www.theravediet.com. My step-dad also undergoing treatment for bladder cancer. Now 3 months post radiation and …
  • Branwyn-we are just shy of the really great date season here in Ga. Even my really great organic ones are only worthy of making a date paste for sweetener right now. In about another month, they will be so soft, they fall off the pit. I’m not a fan …
