• i’m a very big fan of my omega 8003. the pulp is very dry, it does leafy greens, root veggies, and citrus without fuss, and it is VERY EASY to clean! i haven’t tried wheatgrass yet but supposedly it does that too.

• please be careful with enemas! they can be a great addition to a detox, but doing them too often can be habit-forming. it is always best to let the body do its work naturally whenever you can.

• i have to do what’s best for me. if i restricted myself to only eating local foods, i’d have given up in the first week. but that’s just me. for others, eating locally is an important issue.

• i like to keep pesto on hand. there’s a recipe for raw sesame noodles on this site, and the sauce keeps pretty well and is good for about three meals. nut pates are good for quick nori wraps or sandwiches.

  in Ron Paul supporters? Comment by skizzy
• frankly, i’m utterly shocked whenever i discover ron paul supporters. it’s like people only see one tiny piece of his message and ignore all the racism, homophobia, and anti-choice spew the man puts out. has anyone asked the questions: ron paul says…

• i’ve read a few websites and a few of them said not to use honey at all, even raw, because honey is antimicrobial and will harm the mushroom. those of you brewing now: does the tea taste vinegary?
