  • Randall, mercury toxicity has been an issue with me, too. I have been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and have lost my mobility. I had my dental amalgams removed and have tried various diets and supplements. I have seen much improvement over time,…

  • Not all fruits are sweet. I tried this diet and didn’t do well either. I needed more fats and protein for rebuilding myelin and the diet is too cleansing and not replenishing enough for me, not enough of something. I do better with more variation. I…

  • That’s a great idea. I would also like to see one for raw food and product sources.
  • This sounds very likely to me since many vegetables are difficult to digest and therefore nutrients aren’t bioavilable. Cruciferous vegetables for example aren’t optimal on a raw diet. I also feel that scientists don’t know everything that happens w…
  • Hi Annie.I think that you should transition more slowly. When you release the toxins from the fat, where they’re stored, you get a rush of toxins moving around in your body. What took a lifetime to accumulate is suddenly free to circulate and redist…
  • Saying that you eat a raw food diet doesn’t explain much. What do you eat? Maybe you need more of something or less of others. Not everyone does well on a vegan diet. Maybe you’re one of them. That doesn’t mean that you can’t include more raw vegeta…
  • It isn’t neccessary to dehydrate them. Some recipes call for dehydrated nuts for the texture, but leaving them wet makes them blend easier. If you dehydrate them at a low temperature, the enzymes are still alive.
  • Hi Northernlights. I drink green smoothies all the time and I feel that Victoria Boutenko is amazing. Jonny Bowden was on last night and he said some things about health and happiness being connected. I try to advise members of my MS group to find s…
    in Dr. Mark Hyman? Comment by alpdesigns
  • I listened to the podcast, in fact, I haven’t missed any of Kevin Gianni’s summits. I don’t think Dr. Hyman bashed anything. I see his approach to health as very open-minded. He said that a raw, vegan diet wasn’t healthy for all people, and I don’t …

  • jay, add some cinnamon to your diet. Cinnamon is good for lowering glucose in the blood.
  • Back to the topic, do you have the same reaction to other fats? Fat in the blood can slow down sugar synthesis. It can cause insulin spikes and the symptoms you describe. There is much more to it than the simple explanation that I have offered, but …
  • If you only want citrus, there are lots of cheap citrus juicers on eBay and probably even WalMart has them. You can get them for $20.00 or less, plus shipping.
  • I just sprout sunflower seeds in a cup until they grow tails. It usually only takes a day or two.
  • Buckwheat and brassica. I generally stay away from legumes and cereal grains. Buckwheat is actually a fruit. Oh yeah, I left out sunflower seeds. I have some sprouting now!
  • Gluten is a natural toxin. Many people don’t have the enzymes to digest it. People with MS are encouraged not to eat it for this reason. Candida loves it though! Soaking and sprouting is supposed to make it more tolerable, but if you have sensitivit…

  • I agree, you may not need as much protein as you think. Why do you think this is the case? I would be more concerned with eating the right fats in a balanced combination. Hempseed has balanced omega 3 and 6. Sprouts and greens have omega 3.
    in Raw Protein Comment by alpdesigns
  • Yes, hulled seeds. They split in order for the shoot to pop out.
  • I posted a link about sprouting yesterday. The principle is that they feel the water, like rain, and they begin releasing the toxins that protect them as seeds in order to begin the growing process. The almond is already growing even if you don’t se…
  • Nuts generally tend to rot before they sprout. If you do it to release enzyme inhibitors, soaking is all that’s necessary.
  • Alissa Cohen’s book was the only food prep. book that I ever bought. I don’t even use it because many of her recipes include foods that I shouldn’t eat (wheat berries, legumes) and also processed ingredients like tahini and Bragg’s. The Internet is …
    in I need help. Comment by alpdesigns
  • I guess I came in late and missed the list!
  • This is not spam and if there is a problem with this kind of post, the moderator of this group is the one who should discipline. It may be advertising. There are many posts that reference sources and the sponsors still sponsor. What is spam? Spam is…
  • Welcome to the group Jim. I get your newsletter every week (except when you were in Hawaii having too much fun to write it!). It’s nice to have an experienced veteran to a raw food diet and Ann Wigmore’s philosophies here.
  • It could also be related to thyroid or candida overgrowth.
    in Hair Regrowth Comment by alpdesigns
  • There is no good amount or bad amount and it may not affect some people. It could. If you feel dizzy or have other symptoms, eat less. If it makes you feel better, eat more. It isn’t an unhealthy or toxic thing. It’s actually functional and nutritio…
  • The machine is one in which I held a rod that is attached to a machine with a meter and my homeopathic doctor mashed another rod into my hand holding a vial of material for which I was tested. It reminded me of muscle testing, which is not scientifi…
  • You shouldn’t try to chelate with amalgam fillings in your teeth. It’s also risky to have so many changed at once. If I were you, I would find a biological dentist who has experience in replacing amalgams with a substance that is compatible with you…
  • I’ve been dealing with and researching MS, mercury toxicity, candidiasis and hypothyroid for 4+ years. I’m trying to heal with raw food, chelation and organ cleansing. So far, so good. It’s been slow, but so was getting sick. I’d rather heal slowly …
  • Parsley is a totally different plant. They’re both herbs and herbs have interesting healing properties…or poisonous properties if you eat the wrong ones (belladonna for example). Nuts and seeds contain choline and phenylalanin, both cross the BBB an…
