  • Sorry to hear you are struggling om… It sounds like you have a plan though, and that is always the first step. The only thing I would recommend is NOT having any soy. Soy is VERY unhealthy for you and destroys your thyroid, as well as contributes to…
  • I can eat quite a few nuts in one sitting, especially almonds, provided they have been soaked properly to remove toxins, etc., and then sprouted. I don’t do it often, but sometimes my body says it wants almonds and nothing else. If you have a proble…
  • I like to marinate green beans in a little olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and some red pepper flakes (not alot though, cuz I don’t like them really hot). Soak the green beans for 2+ hours. Yum Yum!

  • I have heard that the round ones are hard to regulate the temperature. I will say though that before my family started going raw, I was the only one, and I had the 5 tray excaliber. It wasn’t big enough for me. I try to do most of my dehydrating for…

  • Chris gave you some good advice…I was thinking the same thing also, maybe your body dumped some toxins, which is a very good thing. Patience and trust is all you need and your body will find it’s optimum balance. Congratulations on going raw!
  • There are not real contra-indications to going raw at any one time. Now is a great time to go raw! As far as the medication, by all means continue to take it if it is needed! I commend you for recognizing patterns in your life that may not be servin…
  • First off, I am sorry for your struggles! I can only say what I would do…..first off I think you have too many things “going” at one time. I would choose just one “modality” and stick with it for 3-6 months to give it time to run it’s course, especi…
  • I would call the airline directly. It is my understanding that they legally have to accomodate food allergies, and other health “issues” for long flights. When I called, I would explain that you “can’t” eat cooked foods, and ask that they prepare a …
  • Chris & Zoe, Can you refresh my memory, I think you mentioned this on another string, but I can’t seem to find it….Why does David Wolfe/Natures First Law state on their bottles of cocao powder and bags of cocao nibs that the food is not heated a…
  • I LOVED that!! I am going to pass it on too. What a creative guy! Thanks for sharing.
  • Take it slow, forgive your “slip ups”, and continue to visit goneraw.com for support and your should make it just fine! Congratulations on your decision to go raw!
  • Welcome, it is great to meet you! Congratulations on your success in wellness so far, and your cheers to your future success in your raw journey!

  • I got the announcement in their e-newsletter that was mailed to me yesterday. How exciting! I can’t wait until my daughter is just a little older so that I can book my time!
  • I think it is a great idea to add a thai section for recipes! I LOVE THAI, and have been fighting cravings for a few weeks now. I just tried a raw pad thai recipe tonight that was o.k., but I would like to try a few others until I find the one that …
  • From my experience, a dip or sauce will safely keep 3-5 days in the fridge. Though, for me, it usually doesn’t laugh that long…LOL!

  • That sounds like a fun recipe! Could you please post step by step directions when you get a chance. I would like to try it!
  • Where did you get a 9 tray excaliber for 200!!!? My 5 tray cost more than that!

  • I leave mine running when I am not home, just like a crockpot. But, I am never gone that long…maybe 4 hours tops.

  • Excaliber is the best, it is a little pricier, but well worth the money. You can get tham at rawfoods.com

  • weirdphoenician, You are probably hitting a detox stage, either from the raw food, or from not having coffee. Hang in there. If you can take it easy today, just rest (as much as your life allows), drink some fresh juices and light meals, and get a g…
  • writeeternity, you’re a puppy doula…cool!! Let me know how it goes! (I’m a people doula)
  • elisabeth, You may want to think about bringing some raw bars with you on your trip to help maintain your rawsome lifestyle. There are a few brands that I like in a pinch: lara bars, smart monkey, and rama are all good, and you can get at least one …
  • Jenergy, If you are craving cookies, then try one of the yummy raw cookie dough recipes on this site. I have used them many times when the craving strikes. They are nice because they are quick & easy to make, so you can make them quick when you …
  • Have you tried making some soups? Also, have you mixed up the types of salads that you are making, or are you just eating green salads? I eat a different thing at each meal (all 6 throughout the day!), and that helps me not get bored. I am different…
  • Bananas are a good idea, like juleskess said. I am wondering though if that is your body going through detox (which can take up to a month, sometimes more for some people), and you just need to let it run it’s course? You could try doing a master cl…
  • Patty708, I have to admit that I am not sure that I liked them. They were a little too hot (spicy) for my liking. I got the recipe from the link posted on here (see “help finding recipe”) that takes you to G-living. On the G-living site she says tha…
  • Welcome! Nice to “meet” you!
  • Here’s a positive story…. Yesterday I offered my 3 year old daughter toast for breakfast (used to be her favorite) or some fruit. She said she wanted “the real food” and grabbed the fruit! She is my biggest raw inspiration, as left to her own choice…
  • I have to side wiht RawAlla on this, and say that what they told you, germin8, on your missio is false. It is the medical industry that treats the symptom, not the cause. If you choose to use alternative medicine modalities, such as chiropractic, na…
  • Way to go! Take it one day at a time and you will make it…remember, you are worth it!
