• I totally understand! It can be overwhelming & frustrating to try to figure it all out! Here are a few things that are raw, besides fresh fruit & veggies: Sunflower seeds are raw – they sprout. I make Zoe’s “Cheese With Spring Onions” & …

• lindsaylou – When I want something salty, I eat raw crackers/breads made with salt, pine nut alfredo (has salt in it), sunflower seed cheese, or I just add salt to anything that isn’t going to be gross with salt (i.e. anything except chocolate puddi…

• I use the freezer to get pies firm ;) Avocado is a great base for key lime pie. I have never used chia, or psyllium, or anything like that. jah rawstafari – Yeah, I want your coconut-ginger-key lime custard recipe, too!

• MOTH – Thanks for your example & for sharing your experience! I have been super stressed lately, and I’m feeling like the things I’ve been eating the last couple of weeks (from lack of time & availability, and a need to just keep going) have…

• I applaud you for the strength you’re showing. Even though you don’t see it, you have a strong heart, and that’s what people appreciate & admire in you. I went through ending a job, a breakup, having to move back in with my parents & then st…

  in I'm a mess! Any advice? Comment by angie207
• I feel good when I eat what my body wants. I often, but not always, eat salt (though not table salt, of course!), and eating it never makes me want more – if it were addictive for me, I would just want more & more all the time. That is simply no…

• For arthritis: ginger, cayenne & flaxseed are all strongly anti-inflammatory. Ginger & cayenne are both available in capsules. bitt’s “Coconut Flax Cakes” (recipe on this site) are a yummy way to eat lots of flax. Good luck to you & your…

• If the almonds come from India, they wouldn’t have to be pasteurized – so far that law is only for almonds coming out of California. If I’ve read right, California almond growers & sellers of California-grown almonds (including wholesale-almonds…

  in Unquenchable Thirst Comment by angie207
• I go through times when I don’t want sweet fruit (or ANYTHING sweet) at all, and other times when it seems I ONLY want sweet foods (still raw – just apples, mango, etc.) I agree with all the people who have already said: Listen to your body! I can’t…

• Buy things in bulk that store well, and seeds that you can either sprout or plant in a garden. You can store things like grains, alfalfa seeds & lentils for sprouting, and you can also store spices, oils, nuts, flaxseed, honey/agave, etc. I buy …

• Zoe’s “Cheese With Spring Onions” – I leave out the pine nuts, and the oil I replace with water. People love it as a dip for veggies or crackers. If you’re feeling wealthy/generous, you could make raw chocolate pudding with avocados, raw cacao powde…

  in Quinoa? Comment by angie207
• I have some quinoa sprouted & waiting in the fridge to eat tomorrow mixed with avocado & seasonings in a nori wrap – yum! I have never eaten it cooked; I never heard of quinoa until I started eating raw. I love that it’s so easy to sprout :)

• Weight put on from medication side effects may not come off the same way wieght would come off if it had been put on by eating too much, but at 18 or 19 years old, even if you have a small frame, 108 seems really skinny. Like 1sweetpea said, maybe f…

• Also, eating nuts &/or oils will slow down detox.

  in LOOKING FOR A SOLUTION (detox content) Comment by angie207
• Large amounts of sweet fruit make detox quick & often “painful”. Green juices help get rid of toxins & minimize detox symptoms. I drink a quart or more per day when I need to detox – I start with a base of cucumbers and/or celery, then leafy…
