• Last summer I had a wonderful crop of carrots, and we loved to go out and eat the tops. Nobody ever got sick, so I would think they were o.k.

• Lemon water is great for a cleanse. You could also try a “green smoothie”, meaning only veggie smoothie, that is similar to v-8 and see if that works since you don’t want to use fruit. I am not sure (can’t remember if you posted this already or not)…

• It is also important to point out that stress can be good or bad, and both can lead to those endorphin cravings. Whenever I have a craving for something sweet, I ask myself questions like those listed by humanimal, paying close attention to feeling …

• LovesPeter, I think what Kandace was refering to in her post was a response to what you typed at the end of your post “have some integrity”. That could very well be misconstrued by MANY people as being confrontational. In addition, suggesting that K…

• I “refer” to my lifestyle as high raw, just like ambikalee posted the topic as. It is a lot easier to explain to non-rawers what high raw means as opposed to a percentage. Workout Angel: I have a 3 year old and 13 year old who are high raw. My 3 yea…
