• Grapefruit eaten regularly is great for the skin!! I think the enzymes and vitamin C play a role in this.

• Hi windymoors, Congrats to joining this raw journey. I am also 17 years old and its great to have another raw teen on board. My story of going raw is something that my body kind of led the way to. It started last summer when I read about all the be…

• I never eat salads. I don’t have time to chew. Instead, I get my greens through green smoothies and soups sometimes. Its great that you are really enjoying salads. I haven’t had one in a while. I’ll make one soon!

• Chris, I completely agree and applaud at your opinion. Nicely said!

• I’m on the same page as you guys. Its funny because I RARELY eat any fats in my diet except for hemp seeds or ground flax in my smoothies every morning ONLY if I add ginger, or else I can’t stomach those either. I’m not doing this on purpose, my bod…

• Honeygal, Really? I find that with the jar method, placing the quinoa near sunlight by the window and leaving it like that from morning until late afternoon, when I come home from school the shoots get pretty long at what seems rapidly! They are es…

  in I can't believe how easy sprouting is! Comment by Samilicious
• Quinoa was the first thing I’ve ever sprouted and it was so easy! I’ve sprouted some mung beans and they are ready with tails sticking out, and I am currently sprouting some chickpeas. However, with the chickpeas, I’ve tried sprouting them before bu…

• Thank you for the article. Well, I don’t know how quick your definition of melting is but I’d say the DME melts fairly quickly. It also has a very rick aromic scent that is absolutely irrisistable! I just slathered some on my face and I love it. If …

  in best organic extra virgin coconut oil? Comment by Samilicious
• Wow! How on earth do you make homemade coconut oil?!???? I like the DME Alpha brand of extra virgin coconut oil. Its the only one I’ve used so far and I think its fine, although I heard that the Nutiva brand is pretty good and creamy. But HOMEMADE!!…

• I JUST had an insane sweet tooth and overcame it before I went on the computer just now!!! I ate two apples and was going to scarf down three GIANT handfulls of red grapes, until I stopped and decided to blend some of it wih spinach because I ate no…

• Its funny because my ancient grandma believes that cold foods (especially water) is bad for some reason. I guess her myth had SOME reason behind it. But ultimately, I think you shouldn’t worry about little things like this at all. It will only cause…

  in Cold foods weaken the liver! Comment by Samilicious
• Don’t take it so hard. Not to be such a downer but the world has never been 100% happy. Conflicts happen ALL the time. Just think of it this way: we can only do our best, right? It will make things THAT much better since we can’t correct EVERYTHING …

• OK so what is the BEST bet in terms of safety from metal leaking: Sigg or Kleen Kanteen or other. I can’t stand going to school or work without water anymore. I get so thirsty. I NEED a water bottle!!!

  in Plastic alternatives Comment by Samilicious
• Oh no its not that, I’ve had my suspicions before and I’m going to stay being skeptical until I’m satisfied with my findings. Its hard to trust many companies these days you know. What if they are taking advantage of thier stainless steel bottles be…

  in Plastic alternatives Comment by Samilicious
• Well that certainly convices me not to buy the Kleen Kanteens. I guess I have to search for TRUE stainless steel bottles, if there are any. This is frustrating. I might as well drink out of a glass cup at home. Why does there have to be so many issu…

  in Plastic alternatives Comment by Samilicious
• Someone from another forum said that the steel metal still leeks into the water of the stainless steel water bottle. I have nooo idea whether or not this is true. But I’ve been meaning to by the Klean Kanteen and now I’m not sure. Its hard to find a…

• Thank you! I do use coconut oil and it does help but I wish my skin would be naturally soft and smooth without using it. I can’t wait to try MSM! By the way, what does it stand for?

  in MSM? Comment by Samilicious
• Wow! I’ve heard so many great things about MSM. I think I’m going to get some tomorrow. My hair is currently lifeless, dull, brittle, and extremely dry. My scalp and overall skin is rather dry. Yes, you can argue that I don’t drink enough water or m…

• Did I need to soak overnight and rinse before I started this? I think I did, to remove the enzyme inhibitors?

  in Uses for Soft Wheat Berries leftover from Rejuvalac? Comment by Samilicious
• Ok I’m panicking right now. I’m making rejuvelac for the first time and I need some serious reassurance. So I’m using the method where I soak them, in the “same” water, for 2-5 days? I started last night and gave the jar a twirl this morning and may…

  in Uses for Soft Wheat Berries leftover from Rejuvalac? Comment by Samilicious
• I put sprouts in my smoothies when I want to get rid of them, or sometimes just for the sake of it. Like this morning, I sprouted too much quinoa (the only homemade sprouts I’ve been successful with so far) so a threw in about a big hand full into m…

• Hi KurdishMom, My culture is Persian so assuming that your culture is also Middle Eastern, maybe that’s why our traditions are similar! How fun! And yeah, I love Yerba Mate too. But I usually stick with my green tea. lol, traditions…

• Oh and before I forget, make sure you don’t overdo with the nuts and dried fruit considering all the contradictions out there! This is an occasional, very simple treat. Just a heads up, especially for newbies. lol.

  in Who still drinks tea??? Comment by Samilicious
• In my culture, its traditional to drink plain green or black tea with a really small plate of dry nuts and/ or dry fruits. Almonds and walnuts are the most common and raisons, mulberries and dates are used as the dry fruits. They are offered as a sn…

  in Who still drinks tea??? Comment by Samilicious
• I love green tea, especially jasmine green tea…hmm, I also drink white tea occasionally when we’re out of green tea. They’re too comforting, warming, and relaxing to give up!

  in Who still drinks tea??? Comment by Samilicious
• If you don’t like sprouts but want to include them in your diet, just add them to green smoothies. You can hardly taste them depending on how much you put. This is discluding bean sprouts (with the exception of mung beans) because I haven’t tried th…
