• I heard somewhere that the B12 in seaweeds is not the right kind for our bodies to use. Gabriel Cousens believes in a raw vegan lifestyle (he counts bee pollen as raw, which some don’t), but he still recommends people use a sublingual B12 supplement…

• I think everyone I know who has gone raw with the intention of listening to their own bodies and focusing on feeding the body what it needs has lost weight, even if they had a hard time losing weight before that. Also, sprouts & things with the …

• Check out the “Real Cream Cheese” recipe on this site. Raw sauerkraut (Rejuvenative Foods brand) is similar to rejuvelac in nutrition & has the friendly bacteria. For the cream cheese, I opened capsules of a probiotic supplement because I had th…

• lzhpt – Funny! :D I like the dulse flakes, too, and now I know why not to buy it the other way :) Lina blu – yeah, I think the challenge kept people more aware and the support of doing it together really seemed to help. Thanks!

• Winona – I’m glad it is helping! You can get kelp in capsules, or use kelp noodles, which don’t have the sea vegetable flavor :) vegval – Winona has a good idea about the snacks – they helped me through Christmas at my brother’s house with everyone …

• This is day 8 for me on phase 1 of Gabriel Cousens’s plan. After the first 3 days, and my son making up some great recipes for me, I got used to not eating fruit or sweet foods. (I am also 100% raw on this plan, but I was probably 99% for over a mon…

• Luna blu – why should we yell at you? Friendship/encouragement goes a lot farther. Maybe you could make a raw soup with fresh leek, garlic & pinenuts (or avocado – green soup for St. Patties Day?)to make it creamy. Add sea salt & water &…

• pundee – It seems like a lot of people don’t like/feel good eating dried fruit, but most of it is “dead.” The Raw Choice sells dried fruits that are still raw, & I think they are all organic.

• Oh, & I really like the drinks with even more dark leafy greens, but not everyone likes them as green as I do. Experiment, I guess.

• heartshapedsky – My usual favorite is: 1 cucumber, 2 stalks of celery, 2 or 3 leaves of kale, one-third of a bunch of parsley &/or cilantro, with half a lime & a one-inch (or less) piece of ginger for flavor. This is enough for one glassful,…

• I make zucchini pasta a lot lately, but I don’t have a spiralizer, so I use a peeler to make wide, thin “noodles” & then I stack them up and cut lengthwise to make fettuccini-style noodles. A spiralizer would be faster, but I don’t want to spend…

• I don’t have a daily schedule so much, but usually in the morning, I have two or more glasses of water before breakfast. I like savory foods (lemon/salt/garlic type) for breakfast, so lately I have been eating things like “Creamy Alfredo Pasta. mmmm…

• If you are going to use seeds, I would use sunflower – pumpkin seeds have a strong taste & don’t seem to blend up as creamy.
