• I worked all Christmas eve (all afternoon and evening) and day. So no real Christmas dinner pour moi. But I really don’t feel too bad about that. Matt went to his mom’s for those days and pigged out on a lot of junk his stomach doesn’t appreciate hi…

• Personally, I like juice better. I used to only do smoothies but with certain greens such as kale I found that I couldn’t digest them well and they made me bloat. With kale juice I can stomach it much better. Also, celery for one doesn’t blend well,…

• You know, now that it’s colder I find that I feel the need to eat more… If you don’t ‘overeat’, causing discomfort, and only eat when you’re hungry, it’s usually ok. Just make sure to listen to your body and not just stuff your face till it hurts ;c…

• Well… Buckwheat you can only sprout yourself, as far as I know. Generally store bought sprouts are long and you’re better off only have short sprouts (if you want to use it for recipes, that is, what is it that you want it for, anyway?) which can b…

• Yes it’s been expensive for me. I buy organic produce, my husband loves tahini and the raw kind is expensive, we need a lot larger quantities of fruit and greens to get enough calories. It is cold here so we’ve been eating a lot more fats as well to…

• I think I heard that cashews are like peanuts and have a type of fungus contamination to them… I don’t know though. I stay away from them, they just don’t ‘feel’ right to me.

• I know what you mean about fiber, I can’t handle cruciferous veggies anymore, especially broccoli because the fiber causes distress. I do avoid those as their taste is a good indicator they’re no good, but to get enough veggies without the bulk, it …

• I find that keeping indoors too warm makes it harder to cope with the brutal cold outside. I never use the space heater at my work no matter how chilly I get, it makes the walk home intolerable! I also steep slices of ginger in warm water all day …

  in Raw in the Winter??? Comment by Morning_theft
• I would suggest young coconut meat, when it’s a little too mature- beyond the jelly level, when it’s kinda hard. It’s perfectly creamy when you blend it well. Also, hemp seeds are a great substitute for a lot of creamy nuts.

• Pine nuts? In my opinion cashews should be avoided anyway, they’re not really raw most of the time and seem like they’re really begging to not be eaten. They make me feel kinda rotten.

• Well those who are prone to yeast infections just basically have an imbalance between the yeast and bacteria in their intestines, and the yeast is exploring the rest of their bodies and infecting other systems. Putting in more yeasts in the body- mu…

  in Yeast Question. Comment by Morning_theft
• It sounds like a bad idea to me… I avoided cooked yeasted bread and I wouldn’t eat raw yeast either… It encourages overgrowth of yeasts in the intestines. Not everything raw is necessarily healthy, unfortunately.

• Hey, don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to say I don’t want to support… I would love it to be a rumor.

• If you’re going to eat only or mostly fruit, you have to ‘earn it’ with a lot of exercise. I personally can’t tolerate fruit unless I work out before. I don’t really see the harm of course, exercise is essential in my book.

• What I’m wondering is, if they have so much formaldehyde on them etc, why do they still often get green mold on the white shell? (I’m not saying I’d buy them like that, I’ve just seen it all too often) It could probably be because of how long it muc…
