• RawKidChef- That is such a good idea to only add a few lentils. Last night my soup had LOTS of lentils and I was kind of expecting to have a tummy ache but I was just fine! My soup was also full of spinach and escarole. yum! I'm with you on plain br…

  in Anyone come from a macrobiotic world? Comment by iheartveggies
• I don't have any experience with a macrobiotic diet, but I can relate to hardships with raw in winter. I live in Seattle and I have been so cold lately that sometimes I feel like my bones are made of ice. I have been doing pretty well staying all ra…

• I used to eat my biggest meal in the morning, but now I try to eat my lightest meal in the morning when I don't want to expend my digestive energy and eat a little heavier at night when I have nothing to do. Because I used to eat big breakfasts, my …

  in one meal a day Comment by iheartveggies
• I understand the concept of only eating one meal a day, as I sometimes only eat dinner. BUT- that means I am juicing the rest of the day to make sure that I am getting all the nutrition I need. You can strain your juices to make sure they have no fi…

  in What is your Thanksgiving Menu?? Comment by iheartveggies
• Hi Carrie- There is a brand of flax crackers called "foods alive" that I really like. I love the mexican and onion/garlic flavors. The original flavor seems kind of cardboardish tasting to me but the other varieties are very flavorful and delicious!…

  in Aloe Comment by iheartveggies
• hi aylee! Sometimes before bed I drink about 3 ounces of aloe vera juice mixed with a little lemon and some stevia….it makes it taste like a really refreshing lemonade and it DEFINITELY helps the digestive system do its job in my experience.

• Hi! I am in the same situation- my family is very supportive but they don’t really understand my whole game plan. I bought the Natalia Rose’s “The Raw Food Detox Diet” for them, and it made all the difference! In my opinion, that is a very good book…
