• I find maca really good for helping with feeling down…..and the sun, of course. Better days ahead. :)

• OK - I will give it a go. Thanks everyone. This will perhaps be a way for me to eat avocados also. They are not my favorite but I really want to enjoy the nutritional value.

• Thank you – that helps a lot. I will try again. Now I’m kind of excited. :)

  in Seaweed Comment by Karuna
• OK - newbie question – and please don’t laugh. I have never had seaweed. I know, I know, but I’ve just never had it. In my mind, it tastes fishy. Is this true? The only fish that I ever really enjoyed was tuna and really only mixed with mayo in a sa…

• Yes, definitely better. I wouldn’t say that I’m symptom-free but a small amount of exercise seems to get rid of any little cramps that I feel coming on. Also, the 12 hour moody business that would happen immediately before my period seems to have go…

• Thank you Ray. I missed this site sooooo much. I can’t wait to get caught up on everything and see how everyone’s doing. Update for me: My herbal books arrived on Friday so I am all set to gather knowledge. Thanks again to Amysue and Humanimal for a…

• Hi Rawbeginner. I response to your second comment, yes, I too am having trouble with this site for the last little while. It’s so frustrating. I can tell within the first few seconds how things are going and quite often I just close the site and go …

• I agree. This is the worst I’ve seen things in a long time. I feel that I will give up soon.

• Alix – I understand the fear. Pianissima – Thank you – I do need to push myself. Have_Mersey – Glad to hear that things are going well. Depression is such a scary word – there’s lots that we don’t know about it. I also suffer occasionally but try to…

• I had exactly the same problem….looked like I was having a bad reaction to something – especially around my eyes. I chalked it up to 2 things: First, detox and second, I was taking MSM. I stopped the MSM temporarily, started using coconut oil on my …

• My father used to keep bees. When he harvested the honey he would always make sure the bees had enough to keep them going through the winter. In my mind, this is a bee friendly approach. I believe the controversy comes from the commercial beekeepers…

• I have read the same….being frozen isn’t the issue – it’s what happened to the fruit/vegetables before they were frozen. There was a recent news story regarding Green Giant frozen vegetables that were sparking (yes, I said sparking) while being cook…

• I’m sure that coffee will eventually lose it’s appeal. It did for me. I do understand the social side of it though. Everyone wants to invite you out for coffee, or over for coffee or come to your house for coffee – ugh!!! I keep a jar of instant in …

• There is a really good recycling program where I live. All paper, glass, plastic, tin goes in the blue box, all organics go into the green box and all yard waste goes into yard waste bags….all recycled. The only items that go into a garbage bag are …

• We are delving into one of the three “no no”s….money, religion and politics. I’m sure that the intention is well meant however, as has been stated, this site is about raw food. There must be other venues for spiritual ranting that would be more appr…

• I have also heard negative things about soy in regards to it’s association with breast cancer. As this runs in my family, why would I take the chance? I steer clear.

• Veggies with the cheese sauce from this site. Cookies are a good idea. Maybe a smoothie.

  in PARTY TONIGHT Comment by Karuna
• Every morning I have the Black and Green smoothie from this site. 1 frozen banana, 1 Tbsp maca powder, 1 Tbsp raw cacao nibs, 2 Tbsps raw black sesame seeds, loads of spinach, 2-4 dates (depending on size) and water. Yum!!!!!!!

• The restaurant thing is definitely a challenge. Depending on the situation I sometimes make peace with selecting something cooked/vegetarian. In general though, I try to avoid going. I am just too tempted by the smells. I don’t spend a lot of time t…

• I’ve ordered the books and scoped out the Mountain Rose Herbs website. Wow, they have everything. There used to be a place called House of Herbs about 1/2 hour from where I live but they seem to have closed down. I think I will give MRH a try. Their…
