  • I don't know if this will help or not but I had Candida issues also - for about a year. I finally began doing a detox program through a message therapist and realized that Candida craves and grows off of certain foods. For me, it was Peanut Butter. …
  • I started eating raw back in September after i realized i was allergic to a lot of foods – cooked foods that are pasteurizes/preserved/sugared, etc…. So, i just decided to do the raw diet – i had done a few master cleanses and knew about it from the…

  • MOTH: I actually did my last cleanse with Agave. My body was actually rejecting the maple syrup because of the high sugar content. I felt sick for the first 2 days and then realized why. When i switched over to the Agave, i felt 100% better! I had t…
  • Thank you Deborahann – I am going to make it on Friday morning so that i have Friday’s juice, Saturday’s juice and then Sunday i’ll just have fruit instead of the juice (not enough containers :) Thanks for answering!!!
    in JUICING Comment by carrie6292
  • I guess it would be like ending the master cleanse. Maybe you should start with a day of fresh orange juice and then another day of mixed juices or a smoothie… something like that. I guess there was something wrong with the site since our responses …
  • I contacted a few people about this same issue… but, i have about 20 pounds left to lose. They recomended i start green juicing for breakfast and lunch and having a normal dinner (kinda like the “slimfast” diet) and then to take 2 days out of each m…
  • I’ve heard (but yet to try) that you can use small bite sized pieces of cauliflower – toss with oil and salt and pepper and then dehydrate (not sure how long). I hope this helps you out!
  • Hi. I know this isn’t answering your question, but has the doctor mentioned anything to you about Endometriosis? I have it and what your explaining sounds a bit like it… just a thought! I actually have to take BC to control teh endo but recently, i’…
  • Awesome! Thanks for helping me out!!!
  • I wish i lived closer to NYC… i live up in Syracuse and trust me, if you feel like an outsider in NYC, try coming to Syracuse and living as a raw foodist!
  • Thanks, Newbie :) I’m soaking it in salt water right now. I’ll soak it again in the morning and use Hydrogen Peroxide. I just wnat this thing out already! I’d really rather not go to the doctor – it’s in pretty deep – although i can see it! I hope a…
  • I would try to make a lot of Avacado based recipes if you can… I’m not sure if he’s allergic to Avacado’s. They’re creamy and fattening (for me atleast!). I just made a raw chocolate pudding using them and it was a big hit! I haven’t eaten meat in a…
  • I used to get yeast infections ALL THE TIME and i just realized when i read your post that i haven’t had one in about a year! I’ve been raw since last summer (August 2007), so if i was prone to them before and didn’t get one by going raw, i’m fairly…
  • I believe that there is a Raw Deli in Woodstock. I'm in Central NY (Syracuse) and as far as I know, that is the closest restaurant. Or NYC... I wish i could help you out more. Good luck with your move - i hope you enjoy NY!
  • Sarma (from Raw Food Real World) states that wine is raw because it is not heated above 115 degrees… i’m not sure if this is accurate, but i’m content with thinking so :) Apparently Sake is the same…
  • I love my Sigg bottle too – as does my husband and son! Sigg is 100% leach free! I have a Klean Kanteen but i don’t like it – i can taste the aluminum. I prefer my Sigg! And, the Sigg was only $1 more! I’m not sure if Klean Kanteen is 100% leach fre…
  • I completely understand where you are coming from! It kills me that my husband still wants to eat meat (of any sort) – even after knowing all of this! Thank you for the link – i’ve never seen this site, but i’m going to forward it to a few people wh…
  • This sounds odd, but i like my diced up and then topped with raw red sauerkraut and some chopped up Kalamata olives. Sounds kinda odd, but it tastes soooooo good! I also just tried it as a Chocolate pudding (with Carob) and it was delicious – kinda …
    in The AVOCADO Comment by carrie6292
  • Thanks Izhpt… i’ll try decreasing the amount of coconut oil next time. Even when i was taking it out of the freezer it was pliable! So, thanks for the recommendation!
  • I make my chocolate with Carob (i can’t have caffeine – found in Cacao)... but, my chocolate never hardens. Do you know what i’m doing wrong??? I put it in the freezer and it just never hardens into a regular chocolate bar. Is this because i’m using…
  • Today is day 4 for me – i started monday since i only read this sunday night. Not that i ate a huge amount of cooked products, but i know there was something in there on Sunday, i just cant remember what it was. So, today is day 4 and i’m feeling gr…
  • Okay, i missed out today, so i’ll jump on board tomorrow… Good luck everyone!
  • Hey rawleen – nice to see you on here :) I agree with Kminty – i thought honeywater looked like a model (or actress) too…. she’s beautiful! So, i tried the Coconut Oil as a cleanser and it seems to work fine. I’m going to keep using it for a few wee…

  • Thanks – this really helps! I’ll try to see if my natural foods store has a facial brush. We’ll see :)
    in beauty products Comment by carrie6292
  • Wow – i’m surprised how many people use just coconut oil on their skin… I have combination skin – dry underneath and oily on the surface and I tend to get bumps on my forehead. What do you guys use to cleanse your skin with? Do you put the Coconut O…

  • Honeywater – your skin looks beautiful and radiant already! But, i understand your concern! I have been looking into this lately as well… just seems so expensive! I came across a blog the other day (raw foods blog) and the woman on there sells natur…

  • Hey there! My menu for my daily day is quite simple. I just decided to start planning my menu for a week – this way i don’t eat the same exact thing over and over and over. I had gained back some weight due to an excess of avacados and nuts/seeds… s…
  • I too gained weight. I started with Natalia Rose’s detox diet book and i tried to stick with it as much as possible. I can honestly say that i was 100% raw for about a month straight. I live in Central NY (Syracuse area) and it’s not easy to find ce…
  • SarahJ – what did they have at Whole Foods that would be good for our lifestyle? I’m going to visit my mom over Easter and there is one about 45 minutes from her and I’m trying to figure out if i want to go there. There’s also a Trader Joes which i …
  • Everyone except for my husband thinks i’m insane – especially my mother and mother-in-law! So,i just dont tell anyone anymore! I’m happy and i feel great so that’s all that really matter!
