  • Thank alot, agavegirl! I downloaded the brochure about inner listening. Maybe this will help us a little bit until we can find an actual person to talk to!
  • Thanks alot, spiritedmama! I am very ecstatic about the engagement part! I absolutely do believe in past lives and would love to look into a hypnotherapist. Have you had personal experience with something like that? I feel like my boyfriend would fe…
  • Thanks, Winona. That's what I am thinking we will do. Trial and error! My only concern is that his insurance covers this and mine does not, so it's kinda pricey to experiment, but we will do it anyway.
  • Gosh I hope raw green beans aren't poisonous, I eat them all the time. I chop them up into little bits with red bell pepper and snow peas and marinate them in nama shoyu, ginger, and a little olive oil. I usually do this in the evening and let it si…
  • Thanks oh mighty finder of lost threads! I was curious about this too :)
  • I would think you would want to avoid anything too acidic, and I'm sure you already know cranberries will help!
  • I have been wanting to get off birth control for a while now, and these look pretty cool, but I feel like I would still be so paranoid about getting pregnant. How long after you got off the pill did you start using these? Do you ever worry about pre…
  • Parsley- are sharon fruit and persimmons the same thing? I think I have heard that before. I can usually find unusual fruits at asian markets here in Seattle.
  • Zinfandel- Did you ever make the mashers and gravy? I have been thinking about making something like that but I am scared it will be nothing like potatoes and I'll be disappointed. I'm curious!
  • Ooooo, this happened to me! Do you have any light coming into your room at night? For a while I was having very vivid, very weird dreams, until I started sleeping on the opposite side of my bed. I tried that because the side I was sleeping on allowe…
  • My naturopath told me that green bananas are binding and really ripe ones actually have a laxative effect. So I have been making smoothies with spotty mushy bananas, and those definitely make me "go." I'm not sure if everyone agrees with that banana…
  • I second the prune idea! That works wonders. I think if you tried some prunes you wouldn't have to eat as many raisins. Also, green juice also works for me for some reason. I have also found that a smoothie made with extremely ripe bananas does the …
  • I just got done making the "real toast" from Juliano's book. I sprouted kamut and black eyes peas. The bread turned out wonderful, I wish I had tripled the recipe. I had no trouble digesting the black eyes peas, so I don't think they are a problem.
  • I'm not an expert, but I don't see why you couldn't do the cleanse right afterwards. I know that alot of raw food experts recommend doing colonics during times of fasting or cleansing to help remove the toxins and prevent autointoxication. Did your …
  • Thats what I was thinking Bitt- I want to try really hard and support these businesses so they stick around. She did go on to say that she did go back for smoothies. I haven't had any trouble getting information about recipes either. Glad to hear yo…
  • In my opinion, it is a little pricey for the amount of food that you get, but I try to remind myself that they are using really high quality ingredients and they are just opening. Maybe prices will drop once they become more established? It's about …
  • OoOo, We went again last night and tried the chili and the teriyaki noodles....they were both soooo good. My non raw boyfriend who doesn't really like anything I make ordered the noodles and ate the whole thing and LOVED it. Now I have tried all the…
  • achin-Good to know about the Sunday meetups, I might have to check it out! I'm glad you liked the chili, I am going there tonight and I think I will have that. soyvey- the restuarant is on NE 65th St. in Seattle, kinda in the middle of a little stri…
  • Just wanted to add my 2 cents- my spirooli was the best thing that ever happened to me, it keeps me raw!
  • Thank you for that, it was quite fun to enter all the contests. Happy Birthday, Shazzie!! I hope I win....

  • I have had a similiar experience to this. I have only added cabbage to my juice a few times, but every time I have become very ill and thrown up. I am interested to see if anyone can offer some insight into why this would happen!
  • I personally have a hard time drinking wheatgrass, but we do buy it for our cats to help with digestive problems. We just buy the wheatgrass that is growing in the little carton, and we put it down by their food. They eat it all the time and we have…
  • i watched a show about yerba mate on the travel channel recently. What's your recipe?
  • I know that Jack Lalanne juicers are probably not the best, but that's what I have because I am a poor college student and that's what I could afford. If you go to www.powerjuicer.com, you can order a juicer and break it into payments so it's really…
  • That soup sounds good but I'm just not sure how I feel about the wilted lettuce?? If you try it, please do let us know how it turned out!
  • Wow- I am basically not detoxing at all then because I have been eating alot of squashes, avocados, corn, and bananas. SHOOT! This gets harder and harder everyday...
  • Hi There! I think kelp noodles are only good in asian style recipes so sometimes I let them marinate in some sesame oil and nama shoyu, and then I drain them and top them with sesame seeds, green onion, and slivered bell pepper. Thats really simple …
  • I'm in Seattle but grew up in Puyallup/Bonney Lake. Nice to know there are other raw people close by!
  • Zeina- Thanks so much for sharing your information with us. I'm glad that your doctor didn't think that anything was wrong, but it kinda sounds like he blew off your concerns which I am sorry about. Do you know if PM effects birth control hormones ?
  • The fact that it causes irregular bleeding sometimes scares me. It makes me feel like it is hurting the body somehow. Zeina- you haven't noticed any positive reactions yet? Please keep us updated on your progress!
