• Whatever you do, don’t buy a KitchenAid! Although I am a fan of their other products, owning their blender drove me straight to my vitamix purchase! ... Not that that’s a bad thing, now that I look back on it! But the blender just did a horrible job…

• Yeah I’m sure it’s good then! Mine comes made from a little asian shop. And yes I’m addicted to it as well!

• I’ve heard that your whites get whiter but haven’t heard about your actual color changing. Guess anything’s possible though! Interesting!

• I’ve heard that teeth and gum sesitivities can be related to detox as your body is working to regenerate those areas. I’ve been experiencing a lot of teeth sensitivities lately as well, not quite like you are experiencing though. What happens when y…

• I’m with spiritedmama… lettuce wraps!!! I take a big collard leaf, spread it with avocado, and then add various herbs like cilantro and parsley, add some tomato, green onion, garlic, and then add whatever greens I got laying around whether it be spi…

• Great advice from K-mom. Definitely think about the foods you will be eating. I must say that when I first went raw I was dying to get a dehydrator and wanted one really bad… that purchase never happened and here I am a year later and I could care l…

• You might want to look into food combining. Unfortunately a lot of the “gourmet recipes” are horrible when you look at them from the food combining aspect. Even though they are totally healthy for you and taste great, poor food combining can lead to…

  in New to raw, to rich for the sensitive stomach???? Comment by coconutty
• My guess is that it is the brand of olive oil that is turning you off. I have actually noticed a greater love for olive oil since I’ve been raw. It can be hard to find a really good raw olive oil and if you try different ones side by side you can re…

• Me and my husband are on totally oppposites sides. Gosh, I can’t even get him to touch a veggie! LOL! But at the same time, he is my biggest supporter of my lifestyle and he always tells me how prowd he is of me, and he’s constantly going around bra…

• I’ve always read that hairloss can be due to detox as your body is working to shed unhealty tissue and regenerate with new healthy tissue (or hair). So I suppose that might be a possibility as well ?

  in Downsides to being RAW? Comment by coconutty
• No, it’s not you! I notice that the organics sometimes go faster as well.

  in Downsides to being RAW? Comment by coconutty
• I’ll agree with queenfluff on the eating alot part. If I’m out and about I ALWAYS have to make sure I have some sort of food with me because I can burn through my raw foods like crazy if I’m out and being active. Another downside for me is that I co…

• Rawspring – Don’t let worrying about “truly raw” food scare you away from thinking that you can’t easily live 100% raw. And just because you are a mom who has to work full time… that isn’t an excuse either ;-) (he he) If you make the commitment to b…

  in Why go 100% raw? Comment by coconutty
• Thanks for the suggestions everyone! And Queen, I’m in the same boat as you! Life has always been tough for me. I was raised in a completely negative environment, so that is pretty much all I have known. Finally after going raw, I’ve been able to fe…

• Thank you guys for the recommendations. I’ve recall hearing about the secret before. I can’t wait to check it out. Yeah, I really need it now cause things just took another turn for the worse today. I am trying my very hardest to think positively (g…

• One of my biggest wishes is to see my vision improve! My vision is horrible and it’s been bad since I was about 10 years of age. It kills me having to depend on these damn contacts :( I’m really curious to see if anyone has any interesting answers t…

  in Food Combining Comment by coconutty
• Yup, I’ve been here before as well! And even though It makes me feel beyond crappy, I must admit it’s happened more than once! I try to do a mini fast, or try to eat really lightly for the few days following just to give my body a rest and allow mys…

• Maybe I’ll have to search around for some of those bags. Hopefully I can find some big enough to hold the collards! The bags I keep them in right now are the bags I buy them in!!! Which of course aren’t big enough once you unwrap the big bundle of g…

  in Storing big greens... Comment by coconutty
• Yeah, I’ve been a little frustrated by this as well. I like to do the big fancy recipes every now and then but most of the time I like to just keep things simple and it’s hard to find recipe books that revolve around “simple”. Heeeee, that why I lik…

  in Pastas Comment by coconutty
• I believe that to be true. I have a pretty fair complexion and used to burn super easy, but since I’ve been raw I noticed a huge difference in how much sun my skin can tolerate! It’s like a natural sunscreen I guess you could say! But yes, I totally…
