Yes, I buy raw milk and cheese from my local co-op occasionally. You may need to go to a health food store, or call around to local dairies, but they are out there.

Oh, I love Apitherapy honey too! It’s delicious, but also very useful for basic first aid. Superficial scratches and cuts will heal much faster if you apply a very thin layer of raw honey to the injured area. I used to get nasty infections when my c…

11:00am, and all is well, but I do miss my morning green juice.

I’m in! I really like your blog, by the way, and plan to watch it in the future. Thanks!

heartshapedsky- I seem to remember that you’re in pdx, right? People’s co-op in SE sells a really great and inexpensive organic extra-virgin coconut oil. The brand is Hummingbird Wholesale, and it’s distributed by a co. in Eugene. It’s my personal f…

Dang, this thread is triggering! I’ve found that raw eating has been a helpful tool in my perpetually ongoing recovery from bulimia, but there is sooo much potential for abuse. Pure food vs. sinful food, obsessing over that feeling that you have fai…

You guys are awesome! Michigan, I like the twig/placebo idea. I’ve been compulsively chewing toothpicks, but I think something a bit closer to the size and texture of a cig might be better. Zoe and Northern Lights, it sounds like I need to look into…

Hey Adria, I have the same problem with my dehydrator. A light coating of raw oil does the trick. I use olive oil for savory dehydratables (!) like crackers, and coconut oil for fruits and other sweets.

Mermadria- $40 is waaay to much to pay for a pack of nori! I buy my nama shoyu, sesame, and a lot of veggies at Asian marketplaces in town- An Dong on SE Powell (midway between 50th and 82nd-not sure of the exact x-street) is generally pretty good a…

Oh, Daily Grind! I loved their salad bar with all of the sprouted beans. Kandace/Other Portlanders- I bought raw nori sheets at People’s Co-op a few months ago. Not sure if they still have them, but I think I’ll check back in and find out.

Oatmeal. With toasted hazelnuts and brown sugar. This thread makes me hungry ;-)

I’ve never heard that before- in fact, I’ve been told that it’s best for digestive purposes to grind flax seeds before making crackers. Hmm- anyone else know something I don’t?

in are broken flaxseeds toxic Comment by Ssarah

Agreed again! Very very cute.

It happened last night! I read this post yesterday, and thought I was lucky to have never had a horrible experience. Hah! I got all impatient with my soaking chickpeas, so I ground up some hummus after only 10 hours. The softer outsides made a kind…

I would love love love a recipe for coffeecake that is as crumbly and moist as the real thing. Mmm. Coffeecake and almond milk.

Hmm- I’m in the same boat as humanimal, although boredom is not a trigger so much as stress. If I don’t smoke, I binge on pizza or fight with my girlfriend, or engage in some other self-destructive activity. It’s a safe and predictable outlet for ne…

ShannonM- I get those rashes too! My cheeks, knees, and belly get all blotchy and hot. My naturopath told me that it’s probably a reaction to an excess of vitamin B12- maybe that’s what’s goint on with you?

Munchie, I’ve had a couple kidney stone experiences as well, and they suck. I think that my body’s ph level has a lot to do with whether I do or don’t get an infection. When I’m eating raw, my immune system is a lot stronger, and I can usually get r…

Thanks for the info, queenfluff. I think that the reason green clay is so helpful for me is that I use it so rarely, plus I have an extremely healthy scalp. (I read the beginning of this thread so long ago, I think I forgot that you mentioned clay e…
