• I would be careful with cilantro. It doesn’t detox, it mobilizes mercury. You should eat something like chlorella or brown seaweed (alginates) with the cilantro to bind it, otherwise you might have redistribution or reabsorption of metals. Cilantro …

• I like sea lettuce from Maine Coast Sea Vegetables. It’s certified organic and raw. I also drink Dr.Schulze’s Superfood with algae. Wakame is brown seaweed with alginates, good for mercury detox. I like that too, but it isn’t raw usually.

• Great link Kimbaly. The trick is to eat things in moderation, vary your diet. I take a raw seaweed supplement to chelate mercury (Modifilan) and I started noticing improvement, I believe due to the iodine in brown seaweed. Many of my hypothyroid sym…

• Actually nuts and seeds are very healthy in moderation. Three Brazil nuts provides enough selenium for the day. 2 tbs. of pumpkin seeds provides plenty of zinc. You need 2 tbs of ground flax to provide enough omegas, DHEA and fiber. The recipes may …

• The cold affects me negatively. So does the heat of summer, but I prefer to see green than grey! I moved from a place where the snow drifts higher than the roof but the summer is cooler than where I am now. It’s a trade off. I would love to just sta…

• I would say to go raw gradually until you feel comfortable with the diet and the skeptical comments that you might hear from friends and family. Look at this diet as an adventure with new and exciting foods along the way and good health as an ongoin…

• Yes, you will be able to stick to it because it sounds as though you really want to. There is no time limit. Ease up on yourself. Old habits are hard to break no matter what they are. And besides that, soup is not as bad as a Big Mac. You could have…

• Another thing that held me back (besides the gluten and sugar) was a roomful of people watching me eat raw while they ate ham and canned sweet potatoes with marshmallows on top. I had a point to make and I made it. It’s difficult to encourage others…

• Cacao contains two known neurotoxins, theobromine and caffeine. I eat it occasionally knowing this, but it is not a health food.

• I use Modifilan, brown seaweed capsules. The alginates in brown seaweed (kombu, wakame) attract and bind with mercury. I did EDTA IV early in my diagnosis under the guidance of my homeopath, followed by EDTA suppositories. That was 4 years ago. I’ve…
