• Just have to say that I don’t think it is a very good book.His other book Sunfood success systems is much better, brilliant in fact, it has got the same info and a whole lot more in it. If I were you I’d rent it from the library of try amazon.com us…

• Water fasting one or two days a week forever, instead of doing a longer one every now and then is a good idea for consistant good health.

  in Cleansing/fasting Comment by Zoe
• I read Sunfood Success Systems By David Wolfe and it gave me some useful advice. He said for a raw food diet we need a balance of sweet fruit, non sweet fruits, plant fats and leafy greens. I found that I do this pretty much as I eat intuitively. Pe…

• don’t think all that rinsing and draining is necessary. I only rinse mine once in 24 hours and they’re always fine. They just have to be kept damp, I guess if you live in a hot country you might need to do more rinsing to keep them damp…

  in Sprouting Buckwheat Comment by Zoe
• I think 2-3 days is too long. I used to do my wheat berries and buckwheat for 2-3 days and everything came out a bit stinky and gross. Then I saw a youtube video with Juliano on it and he said that you should only sprout for 24 hours, just until the…

• you say you can buy unpasterised almonds from overseas, yes, French ones would be expensive, France is a rich country. Check out almonds from middle eastern countries and asian countries which are poorer and their produce is cheaper. We can get Iran…

• I think it is more the additives they put in salt which is the issue more than anything. It is normal to put in an anti caking agent. I use sea salt crystals from Ceres, they are tiny pyramid crystals that you can crush by hand. Can’t think what bad…

• Hi Peachy pie, I heard that if you eat something raw, at least 10% of your meal raw if you eat cooked it prevents leukocytosis from happening. In case you don’t know leucocytosis is when your body’s immune system goes into “Oh Shit!” mode and is for…

  in Figs! Comment by Zoe
• I think totally depends on the kind of raw fooder you are. If you want to eat superfoods and expensive ready made things like jars of nut butter then it is going to be expensive, but if you like it simple and make lots of dehydrated crackers and bre…

• From what I have researched, and from my own physical reactions to them, I believe that pine nuts are raw. The thing with cashews is that during the processing the heat is applied because the nut is surrounded in a toxic liquid. TOXIC!!! So in it’s …

  in Cake Rant! Comment by Zoe
• marichiesa, are you sure the nuts you are eating are really raw? shelled pecans, macadamias, brazils, cashews are all heated during their drying and shelling process. By sick I mean being knocked off my raw high, nausea, and stomach ache/bloating.

• It is a cooked food thing for me, I and everyone else who is raw is cooked food intolerant, so we just don’t want cooked ingredients in the so called raw food we buy!

• Nut cheese, especially almond is tastier than cheese I think. And you can even dehydrate raw cheese to make cheese squares and things. Took me a year of being high raw to get to 100% raw mainly coz I was unwittingly eating things I thought were raw …

• To get almonds creamy you got to let them go for ages and ages in the processor or blender. Unitl they get warm really. Just keep it running on and on and on until you get the desired texture. With the recipes you got to get used to altering them to…

• Your friends may be hostile to what you’re doing at first. But if you just tell them, get it out the way, put up with jokes etc for a few days, I am sure it will blow over. Lots of people who go raw end up with their mates going raw too, once they s…
