• I am no lettuce expert, but I grow it. It is pretty easy to grow, but likes cooler weather, also it needs cooler weather to germinate. I live in Northern Texas and mine is already up. I grow it as organically as possible. I have a raised bed and a r…

• I am an Art teacher, and I love it. At times I've considered doing something with food, but it's a hard way to make a living, especially since what I do now is an easy way. Maybe a side business some day when I run off to Central America!

• I don't knowanything about the diet, but found a recipe here a few days ago for nut milk using jicama juice. So, I juiced a jicama. It was so sweet, I was surprised. I have started using the juice in any recipe that called for water and some sort of…

• I like the brazil nut powder because it doesn't have the fat the whole nuts. I am not sure how many nuts it would take to get 9 grams of protein and how much fat that would be, I try to take it easy with the fats.

• Winona, I buy the brazil nut powder from Natural Zing. I believe it is the by-product of making oil. It is a very fine dry powder. It adds a little flavor, but not much, it is a good flavor though. I think 9 grams is pretty good, too. I had my smoot…

• I grow it so sometimes I have tons! I dry it too, but found that I prefer it without oil, I slice it very thin, marinate and dehydrate. It's very crisp like that. But, I've also made Baba Ganoush (spelling?) using eggplant, tahini, garlic, lime, cum…

• I have read that it is a bad idea. I can't quote exactly, but one reason that the MC detoxes you is that your body gets a break from digestion. So, if you eat even one meal a day, it doesn't get that break. Some don't even want you to have the pulp …
