  • There are sooo many raw recipes on the Internet that you don’t even need to buy a book. This site, alone, has over 1000. Ani Phyo has some recipe demonstrations on YouTube.
  • I just made a substitute for V-8. It was lettuce, tomato, red bell pepper, a clove of garlic, cucumber, celery, zucchini and yellow squash. I also put in a dash of agave, nama shouyu and cayenne pepper. Normally I would eat this as a soup with cut u…
  • Here’s some great information on B-12. http://f1.grp.yahoofs.com/v1/4HzyRq8xpwHXBahgfE…

  • Weazelchef-I watched Oprah when Dr. Oz was on. He didn’t say that dairy increases weight loss. In fact, he didn’t even talk about meat or dairy in the diet. He did say that fish was good for mood, but that flax was a good alternative. The show featu…

  • Elizabeth- Was the program you watched on the Health Channel featuring Dr. Oz? He was on Oprah and announced he had a program coming up on that channel. I missed it.

  • There is no way to know how accurate the tests were unless we had more information than what was given on a one hour show with lots of commercial time. He showed people in laboratories, disecting, flattening, drying, making poop into tablets which w…
  • Eat pumpkin seeds for zinc. I watched Dr. Mehmet Oz, on Oprah, yesterday. He was talking about food for health. He did a laboratory study of what comes out while on a detox diet. The study showed no difference in released toxins between two groups w…
  • Hi. I use Modifilan for mercury detox and it contains organic iodine that has helped me with hair loss and many other symptoms. I don’t drink coffee as it contains neurotoxins that are detrimental to neurological diseases such as MS, of which I was …

  • I read his book, “80/10/10” a couple of weeks ago and I’m following the diet. I have difficulty eating enough calories and I only weigh 110 pounds! A three course dinner is too much for me. 3 lbs of watermelon for breakfast sends me to the bathroom …
  • The issue, as i see it, isn’t that people should be 100% raw vegan, but if they post to a raw vegan site, their information should be on topic. Recipes with animal products aren’t what people who join this group expect, or even want to see here. Hea…
    in 100% Vegan? Comment by alpdesigns
  • Alissa Cohen’s book, “Living on Live Food”, has a recipe for dehydrated hamburger buns made from sprouted wheatberries. They’re the soft white ones. I thought you needed hard winter wheat berries to grow. I bought a wheatgrass juicer a couple of yea…
  • Sprouts! They’re cheap, easy to grow, fresh, full of protein and chlorophyll.
  • My advice is a little different. Instead of trying to go 100% raw in your first week, add more raw food to a steamed veggie dinner, raw fruit to oatmeal, eat some salads for lunch. Green soothies are great and are easy to make. I think you would do …
  • Cuciferous vegetables are bad for the thyroid because they contain goitrogens, a substance that blocks iodine absorption. They also don’t digest well, too much cellulose. Cooking and fermentation makes the cellulose more digestible, that’s why the m…
  • They’re like flower seeds, they need to be dry or else they’ll rot before they sprout.
  • Peanuts are some of the most allergenic nuts of all. They’re actually legumes. Why are they allowed? Signs are posted on the doors of many restaurants, including fast food, that say “peanuts used here” to warn those with severe allergies.
  • I like banana milk too. It’s more like a smoothie or it can be thin like a milk. I’ve even made cantelope seed milk that tastes good. Neither have as much fat content as almond milk and it’s not as expensive to make them. You need a nut mylk bag to …
  • Jicama and peas are legumes.
  • Read this about anaphylaxis and food. http://www.asehaqld.org.au/Anaphylaxis/FoodAnap…

  • There are lots of raw bread recipes on this site and the Internet that use seeds as the “flour”. Millet and quinoa are gluten-free and both sprout when raw. Buckwheat is another gluten-free grain that’s good sprouted. All three are acid forming, so …
  • Can you call and ask them?
  • Watermelon is extremely good for cleansing. I was freaked out by the amount of garbage that was in me the first time I did an all-day watermelon cleanse. Lemon and cayenne pepper (not necessarily together) stimulate the production of HCL (hydrochlor…
  • The raw cashew nut is enclosed in a tough, leathery shell that contains caustic, toxic substances including cardol and anacardic acid (similar to the active ingredients of poison ivy). Despite their caustic nature, these compounds have economic valu…

  • A watermelon only diet for three days will not only clean you out, the minerals in watermelon are good for cleansing the liver and kidneys. It’s also good for dissolving uric acid.

  • Iron is a mineral, not a vitamin. I’m glad it helped you.
  • Forrestlyone. That was a finding in 1939 about sterile pigs and synthetic B vitamins. The truth is that synthetic vitamins, of any type are foreign to the body. Most B-12 in multi-vitamins is cyanocobalamin, processed using cyanide. The cyanocobalam…
  • I’m not going to dig through all of my files and a lot of the information that I have is in books, but here’s a source, with references, that backs up the claim that isolated/fractionated/synthetic vitamins are not bioavailable,antinutritive and in …
  • I disagree with Forrestlyone too. There is plenty of science that shows isolated/synthetic/fractionated vitamins and supplements to be harmful and antinutritive. Some vitamins don’t even dissolve in the body. I witnessed this at the town water suppl…
  • I wouldn’t do it. Research this from many sources and compare notes. I think vaccines are dangerous.
  • You can also buy white chia if the black dots in your recipe looks like frog eggs! That’s what I’m always reminded of, especially when I made chia pudding yesterday. The white seeds are called Salba and they cost a bit more. They are slightly more n…
