  • That is good news. The BBC also had a story about Ginger possibly helping to fight ovarian cancer: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/4876056.stm
  • Water is amphoteric which means it can act/react as an acid or a base. This is something to keep in mind if you are trying to maintain an alkaline diet. There are ionizers that supposedly make your water neutral to alkaline, but I do not own one m…
  • Onion Bread; Curried Cauliflower Salad; Chocolate Chia Seed Pudding; Green Smoothies! :)
  • Yes – (as stated above) pure Water intake really is a key to flush out impurities.

  • As many have stated – cats really shouldn’t be given milk. It can cause digestive problems (even if not immediately noticed) and does not provide them any nutritional value. http://www.buzzle.com/articles/should-cats-drin… If your cat seems to handl…
  • Thanks dorian don’t. It’s so simple and good- I hope you like it. And – hey fresh raw food & less time in the kitchen? What could be better! :)

  • How about just trying them with raw sesame oil, finely grated ginger root, lots of sesame seeds, some chopped cucumbers and a spritz of Bragg’s liquid aminos?

  • Hey carrie6292 – I found a site that sells the Sea Tangle noodles you mentioned – by the pack. http://www.kgrocer.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIE… It is probably cheaper to get them by the case from Sea Tangle http://www.kelpnoodles.com/index.html, …

  • queenfluff, I get Wakame at my local health food store. The brand is “Emerald Cove” And I guess they aren’t technically noodles – well, at least they are not long spaghetti-type noodles. Actually they look like really dark green & thin egg noodl…

  • I did not realize (duh) that cold-pressed sesame oil existed. That’s great! I will have to keep an eye out for it because I love sesame oil. Thanks for writing about it carrie6292. And the peanut-dip mentioned by amysue sounds fabulous. Cheers! :)

  • I just posted the recipe – then I did a search and found out that mandelicious had posted one in February that is very similar… only I used cucumbers and she uses honey/agave/or maple syrup and red pepper flakes. Hers sounds fabulous. I don’t gravit…

  • I haven’t made kelp noodles, but I’ve used wakame which is similar. I think that it’s really good with sesame oil (sorry, I know that is not raw), fresh slices of ginger (I use a lot of it!), chopped cucumber, and sesame seeds. First I soak the wak…

  • mmmorgans—really? they bleach it?!? I knew that there was pus in milk because of the irritation & infections that the cows get from the milking machines. But they actually get so much blood in the milk that they have to bleach it?! That is so …

  • Good call dorian don’t – it is absinthe! :) Truthfully I have never tried absinthe myself, but I like the photo and it reminds me of the actor – Gary Oldman. When he played Dracula in the film “Bram Stoker’s ‘Dracula’” ( http://www.imdb.com/title/t…

  • You were probably just trying to make a point, dorian don’t, but I believe that Coca-cola’s history starts much more recently than “a couple of hundred years ago”. It’s a bit closer to just over 100 years. They began in 1885. And the cocaine (which…

  • I second or third that view on Cow’s milk being unhealthy & unnatural for human consumption (and I pretty much said the very same thing about it in the other thread titled “Curious about other people’s perspectives” http://goneraw.com/forums/8/t…

  • Kris Carr did a whole documentary about her bout with cancer. I believe that she was helped by the Hippocrates Institute too. The title of her documentary is a bit wild, but she is so amazing. Below please find the link to her documentary info and …

  • Thank you Meditating. I hope that the info helps! I really need to credit my sister though – she is a hobby botanist (she is the first one to tell me about & show me “touch-me-not”) and her boyfriend is a hobby entomologist. When I go hiking wit…
    in poison ivy Comment by greenghost
  • There is a plant called ‘touch-me-not’ aka Jewelweed that is supposed to help. Interestingly it grows next to poison ivy (hence the name ‘touch-me-not’ :) ) Below is a link about it and there is a photo – so maybe you could find it and use it on yo…

  • Interesting analogy dreasraw… The SAD is very much like a cult.
  • In another thread/forum on GoneRaw (I’m sorry I don’t remember the title of it), another goneraw member (again I’m sorry I don’t remember who!) put in a link to a story about this very topic. The article in the blog is called: “What Idea Sharing an…
  • Hope I didn’t come off as ‘demonizing’ spinach – just wanted to point out that it’s best to use moderately – ie don’t juice literally pounds of it and drink it down at once. Nutrition facts about Spinach : it’s a great source of folic acid, potass…
  • As with everything in life balance is very important. One certainly can eat too much spinach. Therefore moderation is key. Spinach contains oxalic acid. Please see the following site for more specifics http://www.answers.com/topic/oxalic-acid?cat…
  • It’s not exactly the same as running, but I’ve been thinking of getting a rebounder (aka mini-trampoline I believe). I think there are a number of people on GoneRaw that have them and said they are good. Below is a link that states the health benef…
  • Are there any A/C’d gyms you could join without having to make a huge commitment? What I mean is some gyms make you join as a ‘member’ and charge really high sign-up fees and make you sign a long contract, but maybe you could find a gym that would l…
