• I agree with TreeOfLife, if you don’t loose weight going 100% RAW then try food combining, I believe it is almost impossible to be overweight and being a Raw foodist that applies food combining rules. I lost all of my body fat (about 30 pounds) and …

• In nature food should be eaten a room temperature (no AC please). Too hot or too cold is not ideal for the body. Keeping these temperatures in balance will help you avoid freezing sensation in the winter and hot in the summer months.

• ddreams76 – Maybe has nothing to do with your problem but I had problems in the past with lemons. I have a pretty sensitive digestive system and as such whenever I had lemon combined with vegetables (ie salads) it used to create a lot of gases thus …

• Sounds like you are not digesting well what you are eating, if your digestion creates putrefaction then you have gases and you are likely to gain weight. My suggestion would be to look at food combining rules and see if the problem persists. Why so …

• Again, I am by no means an expert nor a scientist but I speak solely from experience. Eczema in my opinion is not an illness but a symptom. Our skin is an organ with dual function, it acts as a lung and as a filter (filters out impurities). As such …

• I am no expert nor a doctor but I speak from experience. Eczema and all skin conditions reflect an internal problem. Addressing the skin with creams and pharmaceutical products won’t be solving the issue but merely provide temporary relief. Normally…

• I am a man and I am not afraid to say what I eat. I agree with others that there is more pressure on guys, for some idiotic reason a guy is supposed to show his virility at a table eating and drinking junk. I am now 42, feel like I am in my 20s….and…

• These kind of news are very sad. Is there going to be any natural food in 10-20 years? But what I found upsetting is the total indifference about these subjects of too many people around us. Meditating: I had no idea about this new technology, thx f…

• I use a brand called “Tom’s of Maine”. No fluoride and better then most commercial toothpastes. I’d like to try baking soda though and save a few dollars.

• Corporations would do anything to sell more, and they know human beings are controlled by words, just remember when the tobacco industry introduced the “light” cigarettes. Just as harmful!

• You are not alone facing this issue. My RAW lifestyle has limited my social outings, not with family because I am lucky to have other members of my family into the RAW/healthy/living food but with friends definitely. I have told myself that my well …

• I started to use Chlorella 2 weeks ago to detox from mercury. Apparently is one of the best product (along with zeolite) to rid your body from prestices and heavy metals. I am still detoxing at this point and apparently it will take a few weeks/mont…

• I’d rather trust nature (parasites) than chemicals, GMO, hormones, radiation etc. Don’t be afraid of parasites, a healthy body can cope with these if ever in contact and as Winona mentioned there are ways to deal with them.

• troublesjustabubble:) – I am OK with coffeine as long as it doesn’t become an addiction…I prefer to avoid it as I know I would not be able to limit myself to moderate/occasional use….I am the “all or nothing” type of guy! LOL

• I avoid caffeine of all sorts, it is bad in my opinion as it is a drug and tend to get people hooked, as Carmentina I prefer healthy alternatives as chicory or barley. The taste may be different but it is just a matter of habit and I can have as muc…

• I used to fast (water only) twice a month, on full moon and new moon for 24hrs periods. I gave it up a few months later but I intend to go back as I think it is a healthy way to give our body a healthy break.

• I have experienced the same thing, I actually can stand the heat and the cold as well. This has to do with the body balanced temperatures, the internal and the external. Before your RAW diet it is likely that due to wrong eating habits your digestiv…

• Hi Karine, nice to know someone else in this forum is from Montreal, I hear you when you say that it’s not easy in mtl to be RAW in winter time, the weather conditions really don’t make things easier for us. I am not 100% RAW, I swing from 75% to 10…
