  • Ooh if you dropped your presriptions that could do it to you right there. Keep up with the detox, you should feel better within 2 weeks. Try adding some E3Live to your diet. Its wonderful for mental clarity and concentration.
  • i always store mine in the fridge anyway, just to keep the nutrients intact longer and extend their life cycle. I say cookies left out can go for 3 days, depending on chewiness. and crisp crackers for 5 days, double that if their in the fridge. But …
  • ditto on jenny cornbleets book. It is still my most used book on raw. Check out thesunnyrawkitchen.blogspot.com. she sells ebooks of recipes and everything has notes and photos which are really helpful. Her recipes range from easy to several days pr…
  • oh man i can't tell you how many health benefits i experienced giving up dairy. I would've never told you I had a problem with it up until I gave it up. Its amazing how no one believes me on that one...
  • cashews give me such a bad tummy ache (but i love them, i can't have them around or i'll still eat them) I can't eat too many nuts or i get a heavy feeling. Which is ok, b/c nuts are so pricey. Im suspecting that i have a mild allergy to bananas. I …
  • green for life is also how i got started into raw! that book is amazing. smoothies do make a big difference for me too. yumm...
  • walnuts for sure and maybe pecans. Talk to someone at your local greenhouse and they can help you out. Certain walnut trees (black walnuts?) will poison other trees around them (except for other black walnuts) Chestnuts will grow too- but i dont kno…

  • If he is feeling cruddy or experiencing flu-like symptoms, its detox for sure. When my friend went cold-tofurkey into veganism, he detoxed so hard that he was very ill (bedridden) for two weeks. At the end he felt better than he ever had. Recommend …
  • Fish contain high levels of mercury and can poison the body, particularly the liver. Fish is high in fat (despite what the SAD community tells you) and can raise cholesterol and triglyceride levels. The oceans are also being fished to death, we've e…
  • i will only do non-toxic options. Ive been wondering what i can add/ take away in life to help balance me out. I started taking dried kelp for iodine. I read iodine deficiency is a common cause for making the thyroid go underactive. I also stopped u…
  • i would try and sprout them more- just so you see the tiniest tail poking out. then dry them. that way you know that they are raw and live.
  • I've struggled with body issues forever now. When i did my juice feast last summer, I came face to face with a lot of my food and body demons. I still can't see myself as thin, I still see that chubby girl in the mirror. I think the raw vegan way ha…
  • I started taking the sunwarrior protein to help out my workouts. So far I love it. I only do one scoop a day right now (which is an extra 15g of protein) And that is true about the salt thing. You need to replace your electrolytes after a workout. A…
  • the zucchini hummus. I always have some in the fridge. Im gonna have to try this spring onion cheese. sounds tasty.
  • green smoothies are a great way to start into raw. just throw some fruit and greens into your blender and go to town. It helps to have a high speed blender but its not necessary. There are a lot of green smoothie recipes out there, but you can keep …

  • I have had thyroid tests done in the past but they've come back normal. I was having problems with chronic fatigue, constipation, weight gain and depression. Raw has helped me with all of this. But still, I am always cold and i still fight with my w…
  • raw cacao kinda jacks me up, i get jittery when i have too much. i much prefer carob too. It has the taste without making me shaky.
  • that is the craziest website ive ever seen! really? who has 25 mil just sitting around in gold to give to some nut butter in the desert. just wow...
  • I have heard that flash pasteurizing keeps a good amount of the more durable nutrients intact, but not the enzymes, so its not raw. But if the juices are concentrated- blood sugar spike!
  • I'd like to know too. Im gonna get some of the oral care products from ascended health when i get the means. so if no one else posts: http://www.ascendedhealth.com/ check it out.

  • ooh wonder what the cashew apple tastes like? I have a similar reaction to cashews as i do to wheat. They make me all bloated and uncomfortable- yet once i start eating them i have a hard time stopping. I think theyre addictive.
  • try taking oil of oregano that helps to kill yeast. I found that drinking kombucha will help with any type of femmie ickiness. I wouldnt recommend applying yogurt topically, unless you can find it unsweetened. They put lots of sugars in there to mak…
  • I can agree with you on all of that zinandel. I will try and keep my fat intake low too but Im not sure how optimal 811 is if within a week my mouth is inflamed, cracked and bleeding. It can't be optimal if it leads to gum damage. Other people may n…
  • what does the clove oil do?
  • i feel great too if i knock down a salad for breakfast too. green smoothies are where its at.
  • Im not sure why 811 failed me. I did a 92 day juice feast and that is no overt fats at all and all carbs and I had no adverse reactions to it. Its why i 811 made so much sense to me. Ive got to figure out how to be maintain that optimal feeling i ha…
  • thanks guys! i've read from mainstream dentistry that you cannot heal receded gums but i don't quite believe that. If anyone has had experience with that id love to hear about it. Im envious of the people who can stick with 811, the concept makes se…
  • how do green smoothies affect you? They may be a good way to get your greens and are already pre-digested for you.
  • i am cold all the time too. I was always a cold person when i was a SAD eater, but now i always have a space heater blowing on me. No worries about falling off the wagon. we all do it. even monkeys fall out of trees.
  • you are probably not losing muscle but the fat marbled in it. Ive read that when a person shifts from animal proteins to plant proteins that there is initial muscle breakdown b/c there is more fat marbled in with it. This will make your muscles bigg…
