  in Raw Fresh Figs? Comment by coconutty
• Waiting til monday might be a good idea especially if it’s your first time, everyone’s different and the effects can really vary. I had incidents where I took my tea at night and the effect was still delayed into the morning… I had to leave the hous…

• Make sure you don’t leave the house!!! LOL When it goes through, it goes! And yes, just imagine it’s soup! Some people prefer it cold, some prefer it warm. I always drank it warm, so that’s where the soup comparison comes from… chicken noodle soup… …

• Yes I agree, once you get past day 3 or so it’s pretty smooth sailing. I agree with Terra too, if you are having problems resisting food, go take a bath!!! I would take really hot baths in the evenings and try to sweat like crazy, it really helped t…

• Hmmmmm I’d be very interested in finding a fasting doc. I’d feel a little more safe doing a water fast then.

• Hey, no prob! Gotta put the info out there in case other people have the same problems! Today went really well. I only needed to do the drops in the morning! I just find it a little interesting that so many people were telling me “oh yeah, you gotta…

• Ooooooo-K… Well I made it out of there alive!!!! LOL So last night I started up with some super strong valerian tea to get the ball rolling. I also started up with some homeopathic pain relief drops the dentist had already given me. It’s got 3 thing…

• Okey dokes guys… Well I had found myself a nice holistic dentist! That’s the good part. And what do you know it turns out that I do in fact need a root canal (on monday). I don’t want one but I can’t find any other way around it. So wish me luck! I’…

  in WISDOM TEETH pulled ??? Comment by coconutty
• Wow, that’s amazing with the acupuncture! Well I’m glad to have read a few tips here. It’s been in the back of my mind to look for a holistic dentist and last night out of nowhere I was having some pretty extreme tooth pain. Not quite as painful tod…

  in WISDOM TEETH pulled ??? Comment by coconutty
• Yikes dude, I feel for ya! I’ve been meaning to bring this topic up. I’ve already had my wisdom teeth yanked but I was just wondering in general if there was holistic or natural ways to go about solving major dental problems, like say you needed a r…

  in How old are you? Comment by coconutty
• Darn right there is! The very first time I fasted I went through some horrible emotions, just flat out crying my eyes out for no reason!

  in Is there such a thing as emotional detox? Comment by coconutty
• I’ve kinda gotten sick of telling people the same story over and over again, and having to explain why I do what I do and so on… It just gets old. I mean I’m pro raw and pro fasting, you know all that stuff, but I tend to just keep it to myself thes…

• Haaaa! yeah it would! I wanna say there was under 1000 people when I joined. I had the same thoughts though, I wish I knew what number I was!

• I would have to agree with Mham. I am a big supporter of organic and just like Mham stated there are just some things that I refuse to consume if they aren’t organic and would definitely choose a cooked version. But in most cases if I can’t find som…

  in Conventionally Raw vs. Cooked Organic Comment by coconutty
• Yes, it’s definitely normal to feel this way! I myself am going through a bottomless pit stage right now. I recently fell off the wagon and now that I’m back on I feel like a pig, But as I’ve learned with experience, it will pass, things will even o…

• I carry around one of those little bottles of peppermint oil with me. Put a little drop on your finger and then rub it along your gum line. Disinfects and freshens your breath like no other!

• well I only use my miso maybe once a week on average.. I don’t know. All I know is that I have 2 different kinds, both good and live, and they’ve been sittin in my fridge for at least a few months. They seem perfectly fine, still taste good! If they…

  in Raw Dressings? Comment by coconutty
• One of my basic fav’s : small spoonful of tahini, ACV, agave, minced garlic, blk pepper, and blend in some olive oil. I make it in small 1-2 serving batches. Sometimes instead of the tahini I’ll use miso, or a raw dijon mustard concoction, just some…

• rawgirldc – I’m coming over for homemade ravioli next time!!! Pasta is definitely one of my weaknesses too. I have yet to make myself a raw pasta dish though. It just always slips my mind when I’m at the store! One of these days! It is funny though …

  in Surprise! Comment by coconutty
• Yeah, it can get warm sometimes, that’s why you gotta be pretty quick! If it gets warm, give it a break and throw it in the fridge for a bit (the whole container), re-group and go at it again! Those blenders are really meant to put up with abuse so …

  in Homemade almond butter? Comment by coconutty
• rawclaire – I use a vitamix. I’ve always made the butters with dry nuts, whether they are just straight from the package or soaked and then dehydrated. I had a bad experience blending just soaked nuts once so I make sure they’re dry now. Anywhoo, I …

• I didn’t know they made nut butter machines! I’m curious now. I’m sorry you guys have had problems making almond butter. I’ve made creamy almond butter in the vitamix a few times. Are some almonds maybe not as oily as other kinds??? Also how much do…

  in Homemade almond butter? Comment by coconutty
• Almond butter is pretty basic, just blend til you got butter! You can usually just eyeball it, if things aren’t coming together too well then go ahead and add a bit of oil, maybe a tablespoon or so per every 1-2 cups of almonds. Have fun! It’s good …

  in Homemade almond butter? Comment by coconutty
• Honestly I’m not too sure about the “anticaking agent”. I’d be a little nervous that it may throw off the results not knowing how much of it is actually in there. I’ve always used pure sea salt.
