  • The link I posted is a published book preview. About 50 of the 200+ pages are posted there with a search option, etc. In addition, there are links to sites that sell the book. Since the information is readily available on the Internet, I saw no prob…
  • Check this link: http://books.google.com/books?id=5Lhuw3zwgucC&pg=PA102&lpg=PA102&dq=Recipe+Raw+Pecan+Turtle+Cheesecake+Sweet+Gratitude&source=bl&ots=G1WTywGTAZ&sig=MbE9r9wwgpw3S3mPmzvWHTeRG0M&hl=en&ei=Op9TSsG2JMLBtwe…
  • Pixx, there used to be a link for contacting K and R before the updates. Being a pack rat, I of course have saved it in a file. I sent them a note this morning about the malfunction. Hopefully we will get a response soon. Before I understood how the…
  • Hmmm . . . They used to show up on your profile along with your favorite recipes. Don't know what happened to them. Any topic or recipe that you post on will show up in your "Track". Let's ask Kandace and Ray about the Forum Topic favorites. Kandace…
  • I started with my ordinary blender, a knife for dicing and slicing, a grater, and a vegetable peeler. You don't miss what you don't have. I purchased a citrus juicer (under $30 at Walmart) early on. My hands just aren't strong enough to use a reamer…
  • From Germin8 on another forum:
  • I did just a bit of research regarding freezing and enzymes. The general consensus seems to be: 1. Freezing looses some enzymes (maybe 20-30%). 2. Frozen is still much more nutritious than processed or cooked foods. 3. To preserve the maximum enzyme…
  • Hannah, if you vacuum seal your mason jars, there will be no air. If vacuum sealing is new to you, do a search here on GoneRaw. There are several threads in the last year or so that discuss the technique.
  • J A -- You might want to edit your reply #1 and add this information there as well. People don't always read the whole thread before trying to respond and might give up when the original link doesn't work. Ideally, I would suggest posting an EDIT to…
  • Signed and signature verified. But now I have a concern. Hmmmm . . . should have asked this question first. Since this petition is specific to Sweden, what effect do you think signatures from other countries will have on the outcome? Might the inclu…
  • Very interesting reading. I don't have time to read it all right now, but have bookmarked it for reading later, perhaps over the weekend.
  • Just a suggestion regarding your teeth . . . Consider rinsing your mouth well after each "meal" to remove the citrus juice and sugars. I personally think this is a good idea for anyone who consumes citrus fruits / juices, not just during a MC. If I …
  • I've never heard of broad beans. Are they unique to a particular area or country? I could not find any reference to eating them in either the Gone Raw recipe or forum database. You might try a Google search and see what you find.

  • An interesting slide show which further demonstrates why our society is so ill-informed regarding nutrition. AOL lumps raw carrots, a selection of greens and citrus fruits in the same category as fried and spicy foods, chewing gum and soda. In the n…
  • Aloha and welcome to Gone Raw. Any time a recipe calls for soaking nuts or seeds it is without the shell. Here are a couple of good websites for information on soaking seeds and nuts: www.sproutpeople.com www.raw-food-living.com/soaking-nuts.html ww…
  • This "dehydrator" looks interesting. I think it would work well for doing sun-dried veggies and fruits. I'm not sure about using this model for dehydrating while at sea. My guess is that the humidity of the sea air would prevent dehydration. Anyone …
  • Wow . . . I just took it for granted that there would be hummingbirds in Hawaii. I can't imagine all those beautiful flowers and no hummers. I did a little research (should have researched before I posted my question to Keewi) and it turns out that …
  • " . . . outlawed the hummingbird in Hawaii . . ."? Keewi, you've really peaked my curiosity. Could you explain?
  • Strawberry, banana, spinach was my first green smoothie, 18 months ago, and is still my favorite. I also like kale with this combination. I usually wash, dry and freeze the kale. Since I'm "smoothieing" (is that a word???) for one, a bundle of kale …
  • Sara Tonin, we have recently been in a drought here as well. I used several other unorthodox but very workable ways to reduce / reuse water. I'll be happy to share if you'll email me. My addy is on my profile.
  • Mikfizzle -- The shell of a sunflower seed is much harder and thicker than what you are seeing here. This is just the outer skin of the seed. If you were eating them raw (or roasted, for that matter) instead of soaking them first, you wouldn't even …
  • I usually scoop off what's floating on top of the water. It's just the outer covering, and I don't think it will hurt you . . . at least it hasn't hurt me. Incidentally, your potted plants will LOVE the soak water. I always save it (along with the "…
  • Gardenmama -- Sorry to hear your son as this malady. Especially with children, I think it's best to be careful and well informed when selecting natural remedies. What would be ok for a healthy adult might be detrimental to a small child. Perhaps you…

  • UPDATE: Here's the results of a search for recipes that include the words "salad" and "dressing" but not "vinegar". You could refine it a bit by leaving the "Keywords" as they are and adding additional limits (ie: " . . . without" tahini OR "Contain…
    in Salad Dressings Comment by emtpdmom
  • I usually squeeze some lime or orange juice on my salad. Occasionally I take the time to mash up an avocado with some lime juice and maybe a dash of seasoning of some sort. I used to think "salad" meant a heavy creamy dressing. Now I can't even stom…

  • StellaJewels, I have never experienced the kind of pain you describe. I do know that when my son (mid 30ish) injured his back, his chiropractor, in conjunction with his neurosurgeon, recommended that a series of exercises designed to strengthen the …
  • Mikfizzle, could it be that you normally loose hair in the summer, but haven't noticed it before? Since going raw, I've been far more observant of what's happening with my body. Perhaps you're just paying more attention to what's happening as well.

  • Spirit, I just tried to look at your blog, and found that the link on your profile is not clickable. It works fine if I copy and paste. Don't know what the deal is. Maybe you need to add the http.

  • I'll have to second TJBs recommendation. Baking soda and a white vinegar rinse worked wonders for me. Haven't used shampoo or conditioner in 6 months. My hairdresser is impressed with the quality of my hair. She comments every time I get it cut, and…
