  • Malchusmom, I'm having some difficulty understanding your routine and rationale. When I do the Master Cleanse, it's the only thing I consume. I drink water, do "Smooth Move" tea morning and evening (because I can't handle the salt water flush), and …

  • Just a couple of suggestions here. I'm not fond of lemonade, but love limeade, so I use limes instead. I also was able to find, at my local herb shop, cayenne in liquid form. It blends in very well with the limeade. I actually find the drink quite t…

  • It is my understanding that the salt to water ratio in the SWF is specifically designed to be the same ratio as the salt to water ratio in the human body. As a result, the salt water solution goes straight through your system without being absorbed …

  • Oooh . . . the straw idea is ingenious. I have never been able to do the SWF because I gag so badly with it. Next time I'll use a straw . . . maybe a new glass straw at that. Thanks SimplyRaw.

  • I think one of the contributing factors to lather or the lack thereof is water hardness, etc. I travel a bit visiting family, and have found that Dr. Bronners lathers best at home where I have a chlorine filter on my shower head. I like traveling wi…

  • Cici, you might want to check out the information on the Family Forum for some suggestions on transitioning and nursing. It does seem to me that you might be trying to transition a bit too fast, even without nursing. It's been 30+ years since I had …
    in New to Raw!? Comment by emtpdmom
  • John, welcome to Gone Raw. There's a lot of excellent information on this site. The site is, however, in transition, which accounts for the lack of a logout link. Ray provided this "logout" URL several days ago: http://goneraw.com/logout. As a tempo…

  • No matter what a recipe may say about soaking, I always refer to Sprout People. As far as I am concerned they are the experts on how long seeds and nuts should be soaked. This site has a chart that includes what the sprouted yield should be. For mor…

  • I’m 62. That makes 5 of us in the same decade – badnews, waterbaby, beany and bluebells. It’s good to see there are others in my general age category.

  • Gratefultobe -- Do you have any results to report at this point? How's your husband's pain, and even more importantly his mobility? What about skin tone?

  • Amandamac, since the upgrade of this web site, some of the older clickable weblinks don't work. Usually, if you copy and paste them into your browser they will work. I've tried several ways to get into Johnny's (RawDance) website without success. As…

  • I know this is an older thread, but I was looking for a good place to put this information. This seems like as good a place as any. I ran across a piece of information on the net today that says researchers believe our bodies produce hydrogen peroxi…

  • There are two wet blade containers available -- 32 and 64 ounce (4 and 8 cup). The dry blade container holds 32 ounces. Glad to be of assistance. You might want to check out their website for more details . . . vitamix.com
    in BlendTec vs. VitaMix! Comment by emtpdmom
  • I chose to get all three. Since I live alone, I probably could have gotten by without the larger wet blade container, but it comes in real handy when preparing for the grandchildren. If there was another raw foodie in the house, I'd definitely be us…

  • Now, now, Shades . . . Let's see . . . you signed up yesterday, and posted your first comment . . . within 16 hours there were 6 additional comments. And you're gonna pick at us because we didn't respond quickly enough? You had already decided to bu…
    in BlendTec vs. VitaMix! Comment by emtpdmom
  • Shades -- you probably already know this . . . but perhaps others new to making smoothies are not aware that texture in part depends on the order in which the blender is loaded. Liquids first, followed by soft fruits / greens, etc., then harder frui…

  • Several members have raised this issue. If you do a search for "codex" Forums, you will find 5 pages of threads that touch on this topic to one degree or another. This one, from March and April 2008, is probably the most extensive (http://www.gonera…

  • At least some of the petitions listed on the Democracy In Action link provided by Raw Orleans appear to be outdated. The only references I found to the first item, Give Health a FAIR Chance Lobby Week, were from 2005 (a letter from Organic Consumers…

  • Nonchalant -- There is a specific way to ease back into eating after the MC. If you haven't already done so, you might want to get a copy of Stanley Burrough's (I think that's his name) little paperback book. I found it at the health food store. I d…

  • Try an Advanced Search of the Forums for "raw" and "toxic" putting each term in a different search box. You should get about 9 pages of titles. Several months ago there were a number of discussions on this topic. If you're new to using the Advanced …

  • Beany, it's good to hear from you. Thanks for your inquiry about the babies. They were born early in the morning (in the bathroom) and one of them was not breathing. That they survived the first hour or so is already a miracle. A neighbor who is a n…

  • I have a friend who just gave birth to twins at home just shy of 6 months. They were airlifted to a neonatal unit and are currently holding their own. Birth weights were 2 pounds, and just shy of 2 pounds. I'd appreciate your remembering them in you…

  • Beany—She fell Friday afternoon. Here’s the link to her post: http://www.goneraw.com/forums/6/topics/7113. I’ve been worried about her and kept her in my thoughts and prayers. A fall can be so dangerous, especially as our bodies age. I believe all t…

  • Beany—were you ever able to connect with waterbaby on the other website or by phone? She hasn’t been online since August 1st. I would imagine that she is quite uncomfortable from her fall last week, and hope she is healing nicely. If you are in cont…

  • Currently in LaGrange Georgia (60 miles SW of Atlanta). Frequently visit Pensacola FL, Gulfport MS and Baton Rouge LA. Would love recommendations for raw eating establishments, etc. When it’s noon in CA it’s 3 PM in GA.

  • Nice thought, Kelly. But we can't always be in an ideal situation. Your comments seem directed at fruitarians exclusively. This site is dedicated to "sharing raw, vegan recipes and advice". How about some practical suggestions for raw vegans who fin…

  • Avo Cado mentioned in post 18 about amalgam fillings falling out as a result of oil pulling. I have several, and so have not tried oil pulling for that reason. Is anyone doing oil pulling who also has "silver" fillings? If so, for how long have you …
