  • I seem to be ok on those other thigs except maybethe Brazillian nuts. I coiuld possibly use more oils too. Hopeflly it’s just a vitamin b issue or protein. I am becoming more conscience of those though
    in Thinning hair Comment by Caleb
  • Hmmm, just wanted to apologize if I offended anybody by bringing up that I still eat some meat. I guess there is no reason for me to do that when I can simply say I’m not 100% raw. So, in the future I will try to not mention that. I respect everybod…
  • I am still fairly new to raw, my week is typically about 80%raw now, mostly vegan with the occasional raw cheese sprinkled on a salad or raw pizza. When I am not eating raw vegan it is usually vegetarian with the occasional egg, turkey or red meat, …
  • Coffee is the thing I have had the hardest time giving up. I have cut WAY back though. Now when I drink it I feel more acidic-buzzy. It’s strange. Tea doesn’t quite cut it for me wither, plus I tend to sip that more and it goes cold. If you are goin…

  • Yeah, Avo’s are expensive. I love them! I use 3-4 a week. I usually half them though and use them on two salads. I pay $2.09 per avo. I have seen them as high as $3 at Whole Foods. I think they are seriously overpriced there. I’m staying local. I wa…
    in Grocery Bill, YIKES! Comment by Caleb
  • I have heard that avocados are not sprayed before. I wonder what the taste difference is though. I also have a concern that they are still farmed conventionally, but at $2.10 a piece I might have to consider making a compromise on that one. That wou…
    in Grocery Bill, YIKES! Comment by Caleb
  • Yeah, everything I buy is organic. I don’t want to touch conventional anymore, simply because they are destroying the land using that method and of course the crap they spray on it, plus organic tastes much better. I had to settle for some conventio…

  • jenoz good point. I definitely see the health benefits already. I don’t plan on quitting, that is for sure. I have already stopped buying beer and such for the house, not sure if I can give that up completely, but am trying raw Kombucha as a substit…
    in Grocery Bill, YIKES! Comment by Caleb
  • My meals are really expensive then. I eat out about four times a week (due to busy schedule). I do make a lot of snacks out of that too though and I no longer buy cokes or candy from vending machines, so maybe this is all evening out just fine :) Se…

  • Awesome news. I just posted on another thread about chicory on a large fatty tumor cause by neurofibromitosis that has been shrinking. I think some of my smaller ones are completely gone. It’s awesome to see raw actually at work.
    in I got the all clear Comment by Caleb
  • I have mixed feelings about this. On one hand I see the economy going to the craper and it gets as bad is it seems it might I WILL likely loose my job. Something has to be done. The only way we got out of the Great Depression was through government …
  • 7.41 ;) I would be interested to hear if anybody has done a test though and DOES show a lower PH level. Anybody do both saliva and urine?
  • rawprincess. Curious as to what else you may have found out. I noticed the same thing starting at the base of my teeth and a friend of mine that recently went raw has the same thing going on. Her’s has occurred on about half of all the front teeth (…
  • I recently read somewhere that you can no longer get real raw almonds from California, they passed some law recently regulating how they are produced. Somebody mentioned a site on here once where you can buy real organic raw almonds. I wish I knew w…
  • I agree what others have said. Just go, one meal isn’t the end of the world :) Although I am not all raw myself I try to eat A LOT of raw food and sometimes get down on myself for not eating enough raw, but really and truly, it’s not a big deal. Who…
  • I am in the same boat lately. I started off with a pretty good energy surge, but has been lacking lately. I’m starting to feel sick again though so I am thinking it may be that, but I hope that is not the case. I missed too much work this year alrea…
    in So Tired... Comment by Caleb
  • Oh yeah, I should clarify, this wasn’t happening when I first started eating raw, I actually felt much better after lunch. Now it’s all the same. The feeling I’m getting now is pretty much the same as when I was eating all SAD.
    in Tired after lunch Comment by Caleb
  • Any pear suggestions? I haven’t found any I liked yet. I think it may have more to do with the texture though. I may have to try some McIntosh this time I haven’t had them in a long time.

  • daniefon, how do you warm your Kambucha at work? Or do you make it at home and bring it in a thermos?
    in Eating Raw at Work Comment by Caleb
  • I love fall!! And I envy all of you who actually get to see the leaves change color. Here in Texas they kind of just gradually turn brown and fall off. Not much spectacular compared to what I have seen out east. I am excited about the cooler weather…
  • I am glad you enjoyed them. Crazy thing is just a few months ago before I cared at al about raw the NPR article wouldn’t have bugged me, but now it does. The other article by Patagonia I really liked too. I check their blog daily. They always have g…
    in Super Chicken Comment by Caleb
  • Thanks for your concern lulushka, it’s appreciated. I am new to Raw food, so I need to learn as much as possible. I have a friend who was 100% raw (until yesterday actually) who has helped me out a lot, but I can’t be bugging him every day. I am als…

  • Ok, I’m thinking mine is higher now. I didn’t realize there was 290 calories in 2tbs of olive oil. The dressing I use is usually a mix of olive oil, tahini and lemmon juice and a little bit of namu shoyu. Looking to learn more dressing options thoug…

  • achin70: I haven’t seen any mangos or durian at the store I shop at, are they seasonal? Their fruit also gets ravaged pretty early every day too though and I can’t go until evening. I am eating more avos lately. I love making one full of spices, oni…

  • littlegems, what piece of fruit are you eating that has 100 calories. Bananas are really high in calories and the average size banana has about 75 calories, Oranges are fairly high too, and they only have 45 calories. Are you sure your eating organi…
    in 1200 calories. Comment by Caleb
  • I would actually be interested in seeing it. I feel at times I’m not getting enough calories. I continue to loose weight since going mostly raw, if the pattern keeps up I will reach an unhealthy weight. I do eat quite a bit of fruit throughout my da…

    in Raw Enzyme argument Comment by Caleb
  • I have been struggling with this myself. I can’t find much reserach that indicates the enzymes helps break down the food quicker and more efficiently. Eveverything I have read seen says our system has the enzymes needed to digest food and breaks it …
    in Raw Enzyme argument Comment by Caleb
  • Pizza: sunflower seed cheese as the base, marinara sauce on top, for toppings I use whatever I can find, olives, onions, cucumber slices, etc.
  • I would like a substitute for our infamous sausage cheese balls that we ALWAYS have around the Holidays. They are just sausage and cheese balled up and baked. A good alternative to those would be great. I bet there can be something.
