  • KelleyS, I was considering a holistic nutrition program as well…. After researching a while I found Clayton College: http://www.ccnh.edu/about/programs/program_home… Their programs look really good and I believe you can complete most of it online,…
  • I love this site too! People have been so very generous and patient with their advice, suggestions, and (last but not least) their fabulous & creative recipes! mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm :) It’s great! Thanks to all! Cheers, gg13
  • I’ve never had a history of having endometriosis, but I just got diagnosed with having an endometrioma on my right ovary and my OB/GYN wants to do a laparoscopy to remove it. I’m very nervous about the thought of having surgery…. also I read that en…
  • Good explanation/synopis pianissima. And thanks for sharing your experience anngoingraw. Cheers, gg13 :)
  • Hi Roxi, Sorry I don’t know the answer to your question. I’m sort-of a newbie with raw food (I say sort-of because it’s only been about 6 months for me) and I haven’t tried to soak cashews yet. BUT I’m wondering the same thing you are. I want to try…

  • Rachel – you are really lucky. But be careful. Allergies/allergic reactions can occur at any age. I grew up in the countryside by an apple orchard and when I was young my sisters and I used to run around playing outside practically all summer in ba…
  • OMG- the same thing happened to me about 5 years ago! I thought it was from residual pesticides on the mango skin. My lips and entire face became so swollen it looked and felt as if I got stung by many bees. Not Fun. Then my doctor put me on predni…
  • Rawbegginer, Wow – living in constant grayness does sound tough. Many people do suffer from seasonal-affective disorder (S-A-D). I know someone who found great benefit from sitting in front of a full-spectrum light each day for 15 minutes. The light…
  • Honestly I believe that most people truly do not get enough Vitamin D. Vitamin D is absolutely necessary for the body to properly utilize/absorb Calcium and there are only a few foods that naturally contain significant amounts of vitamin D – and veg…
  • Saturnina makes some really good points. Too much vitamin A can be extremely dangerous because it can (in addition to causing other problems such as hair loss, liver damage, headaches, and bone pain) contribute to osteoporosis and ultimately cause f…

  • Besides plain & simple Spirulina I’ve always enjoyed Greens+ http://greensplus.com/index.php/cPath/84_21?osC… The Greens+ powder, not the capsules.
  • Aziah – did you get your Vitamix from Vitamix’s website? Or from a different vendor? Don’t wish to be nosy, but I’m curious. Thanks! -gg13
  • I am wondering if anyone can recommend where to order the Vitamix 5200 from. Do most people get it directly from Vitamix? There seem to be a number of businesses that sell their products. I don’t know if they offer better deals. I’d like to get one,…
  • Sorry, but what exactly is a “SAD” parent? I know it’s not “Seasonal Affective Disorder”, but I’ve never been great with acronyms.
  • Oh, OTOH means “On the other hand”. It took me a while to get it myself, but I’ve always found acronyms to be a bit tricky. Thank you for deciphering “SAD” for me! :)
  • I know I’m going to feel like this is a stupid question once I find out the answer, but bloody hell—what does “SAD” stand for? (sorry, but I am a bit confounded because I never was good with acronyms). It took me forever to figure out BTW and OTOH. …
  • joliepolie – thanks for the response. I’m glad that you are happy with the 9-tray Excalibur. After deliberating for quite some time (and getting great feedback from everyone at goneraw) I think I’m going to get that one too. Rawguru.com seems to hav…
  • Sounds great (the 9 tray model). And I don’t mind a little bit of humming noise. I think that the other reviews that I read on other sites must have been exaggerating! Thanks for your input. :)
  • So I guess most people get the 9 tray (if they go with Excalibur)...
  • Thanks Zoe. Your information and advice sounds very sensible. I appreciate it. Cheers!
  • I was wondering the same thing about the noise. I haven’t purchased a dehydrator yet, but I’ve been doing research for the past few weeks and I believe I would like to get an Excalibur. But I
  • That sounds great! I was thinking of getting a vitamix, but I am on a tight budget…. maybe the bullet would work out. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm… something to consider. Thanks!

  • But can the Magic Bullet do green drinks & smoothies? It looks so tiny.
