• Basil, olive oil & sea salt sounds good, even better if you have garlic! I used to eat regular pasta with olive oil, Italian seasonings & salt, but I hadn’t thought of it raw until just now – thanks for reminding me!

• willow – something else I just thought of – there is some kind of vitamin in sesame seeds that is said to combat anemia, so some tahini or sesame seeds might be helpful in your diet.

• willow & Oliveroblong – I had hypothyroidism, and it has been cured by going raw. However, I still feel freezing sometimes. Cold hands and feet are a symptom of an iodine deficiency, not a side effect of a low-functioning (or missing) thyroid gl…

• We need organic sodium. It is in unrefined sea salt, Himalayan salt, also in things like celery, tomatoes, kelp & watermelon. I use quite a bit of sea salt, and I feel great on it – not so much with Bragg’s or Nama Shoyu. Tamari is a soy product…

• Samilicious – Crazy! I don’t get the thing about telling you that you will get fat, unless she thinks you are really on a “diet” that you won’t end up sticking to & she assumes that if you are on a diet it was to lose weight, and so failing at i…

• Is the test just to check your blood sugar, or is it the glucose tolerance test where you have to drink the sugary drink and see how your blood sugar changes from it? If it is a simple blood sugar check, no big deal. But if it means you have to drin…

• susieb07 – It sounds like you are ahead of most as far as detox goes. I would just say the more cleansing & detox you do before you become pregnant, the better. It might be good to do a major cleanse (Arise & Shine, or something) before you …

• Just kidding! It’s “Creamy Alfredo Pasta Mmmmmmmmm” (I don’t know how many m’s). It has a little of a different aftertaste, which I attribute to the lime, but it is so good that I ate two zucchinis’ worth last night and another one today, and I need…

• I don’t know about dinner, but my suggestion is to give them a good dessert – poemomm’s “bumbleberry pie” or my “chocolate raspberry ice cream/pie filling” with my “pie crust” are good choices. Most people are fine with veggies, salads, etc. if they…

• Sorry, I can’t help you with suppliers, but just to let you know, if you want to grow barley grass, you have to get the barley that is still in the hulls. Hulled barley will sprout, but it will not grow into grass. If anyone knows where to get this …
