  • This transcript is mind boggling. I feel like I am privy to some new secret discovery that only a select few know about. To me, this is awesome information and has so much potential for preventing cancer, simply by avoiding candida. Having lost my 3…
  • I agree for some doing a cleanse/fast can help with food cravings; with others it can create or cause greater problems with binging. I agree with Raven that reading Raw Emotions might be a good starting point. There is always an underlying issue for…

  • Hey Kandace. I will be coming out to Portland for business and pleasure in June. I have been to Blooming Lotus, which i love, but i would like to know about other places as well. When i was there a couple of years ago, Blooming Lotus was the only pl…
  • thanks for all your input. i don’t want to go the carpet route because of the smell. wood needs glue, which is typically toxic. i did look at bamboo, but was told it was not really durable. the laminate i was looking at snaps into place and no glue …
  • I have always wanted to have light and lowfat catagories. i didn’t realize we already had a light one and i just went in and created a low-sugar, lowfat and nonfat but i don’t see them on the category list. Kandace, do i need to do something else to…
  • i love the fact that i can get on my rebounder and bounce for a brief time and voila, i’m off to the bathroom. it really helps with keeping one regular.
  • Hey Germin8, I am interested in the same thing. I was also looking for an electric skillet that has a very low temperature setting so that I can just take the chill off of some of my food, especially in the cold weather. Anyone, anyone?

  • My son got me the dryer balls as a gift as he was tired of having dryer sheets banned from my house. I am concerned, however, that when the dryer balls are heated, the materials will give off toxic fumes. Does anyone have any insight?
  • If you blend it in a high speed blender, it seems to me that you are breaking down the fiber. When i have done so, the resulting drink is completely smooth. I have used it in my smoothies and i just don’t get why it shouldn’t be acceptable. I though…
  • Hey Rawmama. I have a vitamix and i make very thick smoothies with lots of veggies and i haven’t had a problem with it overheating (hold on, i need to find some wood to knock on). I don’t use the plunger either. What i do is turn the switch on and o…
  • rawrawraw, i hope that you were typing without using your right index finger as opposed to not having a right index finger to type with! hope your finger is better and that it is actually there!
  • Pianissima, from my information, Whole Foods does not use organic produce for their juices or their food/salad bars. Unless things have changed, I believe that information is correct. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
  • But not organic.
  • Actually, it’s only California almonds that must be pasteurized or treated. Although you can still get almonds that say raw, but really aren’t, you can get raw almonds that really are. Some of the big companies ordered many months or even a years wo…
  • Yes, I agree with the coconut Bluedolfin, especially young coconut. It is not organic and is fumigated. Although I love them, I do not want to subject my body to the impurities. I would like to see low salt recipes without the use of Nama Shoyu, nut…
  • I second Mon46’s request for low fat recipes. I really want to see more recipes that use minimal or no fat, including nuts, seeds, avocados, and oil. Raw foodists in general seem to know that although we need healthy fats, they should be a minimal p…
  • Are you looking for something to substitute bananas for in smoothies? I use pears to give it creaminess.
  • What great ideas have been shared by the many members who replied. I especially like Bluedolfin’s idea of setting up with friends to make them dinner. That would provide you with a social outlet in addition to providing you with nourishment. Along t…
  • Thanks for the ideas to try bluedolfin. I often put juice pulp in my salads and feel like i am getting a 6fer; i get to enjoy the benefits of juice, my pulp is not being wasted, it adds fiber to the salad, it adds a chewiness that I enjoy, it adds a…
    in Now what?? Comment by RCBAlive
  • i am very interested in using processed veggies instead of nuts. I really want to limit my fat intake and would prefer to use veggies as much as possible. Of course i would like the alternatives to be tasty and satisfying. lovingraw, do you have any…

  • Hey Zoe. Would you provide measurements for the ingredients in your fake nori? I have been thinking of doing something like that with kale and other greens and haven’t been sure about the proportions. I would really appreciate it.
    in Sea Veggie Info Comment by RCBAlive
  • Oh YUCK! I will have to look into that. First raw nori is cooked and now it is fish. Thanks Karmyngirl and Ron4540.

  • Where did you get that info ron4540?
    in Sea Veggie Info Comment by RCBAlive
  • Chefraw I never heard of mendocino, nor have I heard of clearspring Springfairy. I will look into both companies. But there are some options that are organic and raw. I think that Maine Coast probably provides the most options. I will get back on th…

  • Yes, very disappointing. I feel violated. Feel like we are being deceived. Especially the untoasted nori. Who would have thought? Why even bother to not toast it if it is cooked?
    in Sea Veggie Info Comment by RCBAlive
  • My pleasure alive4sure. I really want people to be able to make conscious decisions based on accurate information. I will post as soon as I can.
    in Sea Veggie Info Comment by RCBAlive
  • I know, it really is a bummer. I will share some other dismaying news on other products that we consider raw soon. It makes me angry that we are not given complete information to know if something is really raw or not.
    in Sea Veggie Info Comment by RCBAlive
  • There is no indication of the sea seasonings except for the nori granules if they are raw. The dulse granules and triple blend flakes are raw. The kelp granules, nori granules and sea salt with sea veg are not raw. The other products indicate whethe…
