• rawlizard – I have used an oil blend with eucalyptus on my chest, but I didn’t know about the heat. Thanks :)

• goony – That is INTERESTING! I have been drinking green juice like crazy the last few days, because I figured it couldn’t hurt. It didn’t do the trick all by itself, but I’m sure it is helping. :)

• I went for acupuncture this morning, and I have been out of bed all day & even doing some things outside without becoming exhausted. Yesterday, I could hardly stay out of bed for 10 minutes before just being so exhausted that I had to go lie dow…

• Thank you both for the ideas & information! simplyraw – I just started eating garlic yesterday, but that link gave some great information – I may try putting it on my feet. I also saw something on there about cayenne, which seems to be the only …

• I like to keep kelp noodles on hand in the fridge. They usually are dated several months away, so I can buy several at a time. Then I make a simple sauce out of pine nuts or cashews, to put on the noodles & have dinner in a hurry. Some other thi…

• Hair falling out can be a symptom of a deficiency of vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) or other nutrients. It takes a lot of raw foods to get enough B5 in a day – 15 cups of cauliflower, or 6 cups of sunflower seeds, or 5 avocados…I recently started tak…

• If there’s anyone in Utah interested, The Good Earth carries Bob’s Red Mill teff flour and whole teff; I haven’t checked on sorghum (don’t even know what it is?)

• Humans have eaten honey (and kept bees) for decades, if not centuries, and the bees are just now starting to disappear. Honey DOES have nutritional value; it has lots of magnesium at least. My new thought – If I’m buying agave nectar that is process…

• I’ve edited this post and apologize because it originally sounded rude & that wasn’t what I intended. ecvraw – I’ve been there when honey is harvested, so I want to describe what I’ve seen. The bees do not have baby bees waiting for the honey. T…

• superfood – absolutely not! I was posting that in case people aren’t aware that this is how the bees are usually treated. That is what makes me picky about what honey I use, if any. The thing I posted about how much honey the bees produce was in res…

• FYI on honey & beekeeping – Most beekeepers (local or not) take all the honey they can get and often give their bees sugar water &/or corn syrup to eat for the winter instead of leaving the honey the bees have made for their own food. Bees k…

• I aspire to one day be a beekeeper – for a lot of the reasons stated above: I will know that my honey comes as excess from the bees who are well taken care of, and I will know that there will be plenty of bees to pollinate my plants and those of the…

• I’ve had the same problem – I even bought some that were imported from Spain, & they molded instead of sprouting. :(

• It depends on the restaurant – some have fresh avocado available, or a lime or lemon to squeeze on your salad. Many restaurants also have some kind of fresh fruit available, too. I went to a restaurant that didn’t have any fresh fruit listed on the …

• I don’t – I take extra & offer it to people. But the lunch bag is HILARIOUS! :D

• I think the feelings of peace, love, acceptance, etc. while not caused by diet alone, are made easier or more accessible for a lot of people through eating raw, because a lot of times what messes with our attitudes & emotions is not feeling good…

• tjab – Thanks for the info. – I looked it up – 17 cups of chopped kale would give you a day’s supply of iron. Oats, 2 1/2 cups for a day’s supply. I think I’m going to have to agree with the supplement, especially for vegans – omnivores can probably…

  in So Tired... Comment by angie207
• tjab – I looked up iron in raw foods – Parsley (juice, because you’d need a LOT of it), pumpkin or sesame seeds (about a cup of either has a full day’s supply of iron), & sunflower seeds (takes about 2 1/2 cups for a day’s supply of iron). Sorry…

• I’m the same as Zoe. I never noticed any “massive energy surge” but I do have more energy overall, which I really found out by going back to cooked foods last year & realizing I had no energy! But it was after about two years when I noticed I wa…

• I have type 1 diabetes and I use only about 1/3 the amount of insulin eating raw, as I did when eating cooked foods – even when eating the same amount of carbs, and even when I eat things like mangos & dates & raw honey.
