• My husband didn’t have any detox symptoms at all when he went 100% a couple of years ago. Maybe that was because it took him 3 years to transition! I think that you could give it a go and if you feel and unpleasant symptoms then just eat some cooked…

• Getting a dehydrator is a good way to save money because flax crackers, raw breads etc are really cheap to make and very filling. And you can use your fruit and veg pulp to make cookies.

  in Not raw yet... Comment by Zoe
• You say you’re not thirsty so why do you believe you are dehydrated? You need less water when raw because as Belisarius says the raw food contains about 90% water. And it takes very little stomach acids to digest raw food. You use up litres trying t…

• We get ours from Indian and Middle Eastern food shops. The good ones are from Iran mainly, also Jordan grows some good dates we buy fresh, they’re huge!

  in Are dried dates raw? Comment by Zoe
• Most dates have some kind of vegetable oil on them so check the packaging to be sure they are 100% dates with nothing added. Most are dried naturally, they come from really hot places with plenty of sun. I like fresh dates the best which haven’t bee…

• I just bought some and it says it is unpasteurised, but it doesn’t taste raw! You know how raw juice kind of “bites” you, well this juice just feels dead.

• It is hard to say because most calorie recomendations are based on cooked food eaters. If you are raw then you will not have a barrier of mucus inbetween your food and your blood. So we assimilate more and our bodies work more efficiently than cooke…

• There’s lots of talk about nama shoyu on here, do a search on the forums page you’ll get tons of viewpoints and info from there. Persnally I and other people who don’t like to use it, just substitute salt for nama shoyu in recipe which call for it. …

• That’s hilarious! I have always heard it makes women and men more fertile than before. My guess is that your doctor thought “Uh oh! not enough food=no periods = no fertility”. Doctors only recieve at most 6- 12 hours of training in nutrition during …

  in Eating Raw and Pregnancy??? Comment by Zoe
• I’d say from my ownexperience that it’s easier the more raw you go. And be sure to check that all your ingredients are really truly raw. I was trying to be 100% for about a year and I kept finding out stuff I was eating wasn’t really raw, like pecan…

• Really?! But it is so hard to get good quality fruit here, especially in the winter. There just are no ripe tomatoes or other fruits for months. Blimey, that is very surprising. It is what makes me think 80/10/10 is nigh on impossible for UK or peop…

• Do dry brushing, and get a brush with a massage things on the other side to the brush. Massage and brush your cellulite bits towards your heart a little before you get in the bath. It might help to break it up…not that I ever did, or do that, I’ve j…

• If you go raw, your cellulite will disappear, mine did! I don’t know the ins and outs of hy it happened and I wasn’t expecting it to, but when I squeeze the skin on my legs it isn’t dimpled anymore. Maybe someone else will know how and why.
