• that’s a good idea. don’t strain the date syrup though… that is NOT a good idea ;)

• i think buckwheat and millet are seeds, and kamut is a grain, but i’m not sure at all. but i kind of think they all have grain like properties, which is what matters when you’re food combining. try the combo you want, then see how it makes you feel,…

• i don’t much care for sprouted grains, except buckwheat, and only as part of a recipe. and i find sprouted beans completely nauseating and would never recommend them to anyone. raw vegans definitely don’t follow the food pyramid. most raw foodists a…

• i’m pretty new to raw too, i didn’t mena for my last post to come off preachy or like i am 100% raw 100% of the time… but i would say good beginner type recipes are a good bread recipe (like the onion bread) is crucial, because if you put avocado on…

• i don’t see why rice protein would be unacceptable to mention. hemp protein isn’t a whole food either, but if you eat oil in other situations, you might as well eat the protein, which is just the by product of pressing the oil. and actually, it’s go…
