• Mellie-bellie. I suffered miserably from a candida rash for years before going raw. When I went gluten-free it was moderately managed. When I went raw, i detoxed candida from everywhere! It began on day 5 with very itchy and bumpy ears and earlobes,…

• Welcome. We are here to help with your journey. My raw efforts over the last 2+ years led my daughter and husband to a vegan diet. My older 2 (15& 13) are completely corrupted by the media hype that Doritos and Jolt are essential food groups! I …

• I’m right there with the both of you-Gluten-free before going raw. I cannot tolerate saoking legumes of any kind and I stay away from most soaked grains, except quinoa very occasionally. I do fine raw, but I often think about how this goes if you ha…

• We had a post about this not long ago. Didn’t Ardesmond win the who spends the most? I still hover around $400/week. Less now I think. It’s summer. I’m eating less and biking for my groceries so it all has to fit in 2 paniers!

• mamamilk-you are a busy woman! I get the Desert essence scrub ata place near me called the Natural Foods Warehouse. I know you could get it on-line. I’m not sure I’ve seen it at Whole Paycheck, but they’d get it 4 U.

• The bamboo body scrub by desert essence. After a week at the beach, my skin was tanned and very dry. This stuff literally sloughed off all the dead skin, left me looking radiant with no peeling. All my old lady rough spots vanishes and when I used i…

• I hope that doesn’t apply to raw honey too! I always like to believe that my honey is freely given and that the bees are happy for me to eat what they made. Am I being naive?

• Kristen—I made your recipe with the dehydrated almonds and it was right on the money!. I added a dash of oil to improve the crumbly consistency. I’m sure my S blade is really old and dull. It’s 22 years old! I also made less this time. Thank you for…

• I have made it both ways, soaked and not with raw almonds. When you soak them it comes out more like a fluffy mousse or frosting consistency-I threw the almonds in with a little water, a little olive oil and some sea salt—but then I ran the vitamix …

• Now we wait and see how long it takes a worker to mingle their raw feces- contaminated cow hands with the raw apple fries before the media announces that all apples are bad! Always a cynic—can’t help it. It’s my Virgo coming out.

• I think it could possibly depend on the length of time raw-when I am detoxing candida, I totally stink! I’m like Bitt-suffered miserably with hyperhydrosis (not so much smelly) palms, pits, feet. It is amazingly well-managed on a raw diet. Consideri…

• I use Dr. Bronners for me. I like to use GSE (grapefruit Seed Extract) mixed with water to swish around my SIGG bottle. It’s a wonderful disinfectant-also in an organic solution keeps the bugs/fungus off my vegetables-off topic, I know.

• While searching for a new recipe for tomorrow, I came across this Pecan Graham Cracker Crust recipe from Renee Underkoffler, It sounds similar: 2C pecans-soak 1 C in 2C water for 2-4 hours, drain, rinse. 4-6 soft dates soaked and pitted 1 T maple sy…

• I’ll take a shot at this one—grind your pecans very fine with some soaked dates in a 1:1 ratio, mix in the cinnamon and nutmeg, add 1/2 C of homemade almond butter (soaked almonds thrown in the blender w/ a little cold-pressed almond oil and salt) a…
