  • Wow! This is amazing! Yes, definitely give yourself space/time/love and just let things get better on their/your own schedule. Enjoy your food! :) Your son’s story is inspiring to me. Thank you for posting it! I have healed my thyroid with a high-ra…

  • Thank you all for your comments/stories/sharing your struggles & successes. Life is too beautiful to waste, and you’ve helped me face some of the issues I have had/stil have with food & eating. Or, rather, the emotional issues that manifest …
  • Oh, brother! I don’t like to harm living creatures needlessly, but the termites are invading my house, too. I want to know how to not get my house eaten… Drive them away, or whatever, but I’d rather kill a few insects (if there’s not another option)…
  • I do romaine leaves with: a sunflower seed “bean” filling, salsa, avocados or guac, raw Morroccan olives, and cashew sour cream when I have the time/energy/desire for really good tacos. Other times, I do the sunflower seed filling, tomatoes, avocado…

  • I have grown my own wheatgrass, too – pretty fun! I have always kept the sprouts covered (dark & moisture-retaining) for the first few days to mimic the seeds being underground – are you saying I don’t need to do that?
  • Mood swings really could have to do with dad being gone or not – if the emotional issue is abandonment or lack of attention/affection, having dad home but knowing he will be leaving again is still just as crazy… As for headaches, a lot of headaches …
  • Good to know – I always like to hear people’s experiences/opinions about raw books – this one sounds great! :)

  • Alissa Cohen’s book “Living on Live Food” is a great read – if for nothing else than her practical approach, joy for life, and her response whenever anyone says that eating raw is “radical” – I love her attitude, and she also makes it not about spen…
  • If you’re missing sunshine, sunflower seeds are a great food source of vitamin D – I love raw tacos when I feel down in the wintertime :)

  • www.sunfood.com – Raw chocolate! I never have PMS symptoms when I get enough of that, but every other brand I have tried just gives me gas & indigestion and I still get PMS. I buy the powder, and I use it in drinks, pudding, pies, brownies, etc.…

  • Does vacuum sealing have to involve heating?
  • I was thinking about making soups and then dehydrating them to powder, so I could have them ready to take backpacking, on roadtrips, etc. – vacuum sealing I think would preserve them better, but I haven’t read about it or tried it yet – mostly I was…
  • The powder has the cacao butter pressed out. You can grind the nibs up in a blender or a coffee/spice grinder if you want to get all the benefits of the cacao butter in it without having the noticable bitter chunks, but they still won’t blend up com…
  • Carrot-pecan burger? I knew there was a reason I want to buy her book :) Not helpful, I know.
  • Oh, I wish I lived where I could go pick up organic produce from the farm! My local health food store is lacking some variety. I’ve heard of produce delivery services that deliver organic produce to your door – anybody know of any that will deliver …

  • I love kale in my green juices!
    in Kale Juicing Comment by angie207
  • My bro’s house gets invaded with the regular flies that come in cuz he has no screen doors & 3 kids going in & out a lot to play, etc. He uses the sticky strips (flypaper) that comes in a roll. You just hang it up by one end & unroll it …

  • Warm water enemas or colonics could help a lot if you are bloated. Water &/or ginger can help, too. Ginger is good for digestion.
  • I’m more chatty when I feel good. I just bought some celery and it sounds good to try a sesame seed cheese with it. :)
  • You’re welcome! I’m getting good ideas here, and I want to know how you make cheese from sesame seeds!? I have a lot of them :)
  • Juicing sounds good. :) have_mersey – How did you make your burgers? I am feeling I want to get a lot more simple, but still have something substantial sometimes (like pizza or a burger). Funny you said the thing about just eating fruit; I was talki…
  • Oh, yeah, sorry! I make a lot of nutty stuff – desserts, nutloaf, nut-based sauces, etc. I also use a lot of oil (coconut & olive), raw olives, raw sauerkraut, maca… I want to use more of my budget buying fresh produce and less buying the expens…
  • www.sunfood.com is the only brand of cacao I use any more, as the other brands make me sick and don’t give me the medicinal benefits I am used to getting from raw cacao. They also sell maca and truly raw cashews. www.realrawfood.com sells all kinds …
  • Woohoo! :)
  • Woohoo! :)
  • Zaphirah – Absolutely right! one question – what do you mean by dc & ds in your posts? I’m assuming you’re talking about people in your family?
  • Zaphirah – Thank you for all the ideas! I have found that my son’s being around it leads to his asking to try things once in a while. Good idea on just fruits & veggies between meals… I also tell my son (age 6) that he can have as much as he wan…
  • I got some “goji berries” from an Asian market, and I can’t stand to eat them – feels like they’re too polluted – I always feel good with the Sunfood brand. Thanks for answering that question; I guess I wish I could just grow them in my backyard :)
  • I agree – with the feeling energy, depression lifted, and social part getting easier! My friend, when she first heard I was starting to eat raw, was worried (though she didn’t tell me until much later) that I would be like some of the “weird” raw fo…
  • Oh, my goodness! I just checked the link about the raw vegan pies! :) Happy day! I might have to send MYSELF something for Mom’s Day heehee :)
