  • it sounds like they were rotting. I just slightly press on the skin to make sure they are not too soft. if in doubt you can always buy them unripened and let them ripen up at home. I sometimes prefer to buy them this way if i know i’m not going to u…
  • oh yeah, after opening up my first bottle of spirulina I knew I’d have to hide it in smoothies in little amounts. the smell is way ew – i can just imagine what it tastes like! I give you guys credit for trying to get more of it in your diet!

  • kindaraw: my son also suffered from atopic dermatitis since birth. My doc told me that often a child who is allergic to dairy will be allergic to those other common allergens you named in your last post. So we tried the elimination diet, but it didn…
  • I’ve been feeding my 2 year old some of my green smoothies every morning. Sometimes I use spinach or kale. He hasn’t shown any signs of stomachache. I usually add some sort of citrus + banana. another idea I tried this morning is to blend a frozen b…
  • have_mersey: do you mean you make an eyewash out of diluted tea? is regular filtered water okay to use?
  • rawmama: my hub’s eyes often look like pink-eye ( just without the goopy crust that usually accompanies it) – thanks so much for the info, i hope to get some otc drops for him today. lizk: lol, that is hilarious about your 10th grade trip! He told m…
  • LizK: you are a lifesaver! thank you so much for giving me all those details on what type of solutions to buy. we now have a little hope because we didn’t know what else to try. Hm, I’m wondering if he sleeps with his eyes open too? how did you know…
  • michigan roman: have you tried oil pulling? I just started reading about it recently.. did it help you at all? skystrdust: thanks the info. although my husband doesn’t wear contacts, i appreciate your input.
  • oh my gosh, and laughed so hard at this! i’m sorry I never laugh at others pain..but the way you write is so cute. I give you credit – you seem to have a great sense of humor! If that had happened to me – i’d be ticked ;) I’m fairly new to raw so I …
  • i’d like to know if anybody has been successful blending an avocado seed in a vita-mix? I’m skeptical this can be done because i’ve already tripped the safety mechanism on my vita mix ( which is a vita-pro commercial blender).. and i wasn’t blending…
  • waterbaby12347 – i just wanted to let you know I did order from iherb & used the rebate code you gave us. thank you! the service is excellent! the prices are great, it arrived on time ( with free shipping ) – & it was packaged very carefully…
  • thanks for this….....i saw your post regarding iherb.com and planned on purchasing from them as soon as my husband gets paid at work. I now have even more incentive to purchase from iherb. thanks again!
  • i’m pretty relieved to hear that both of you are thinking i’m ‘backed up’.. i thought so too because of the coffee withdrawals – but the fact the bloating sensation is only on the right side kinda made me wonder what else it could be.. just glad to …
  • i wondered if it was something to with the gallbladder as well. i really am not having pain though? are these teas you speak of in a regular ole’ health store?
  • oh and I’m about 65% raw on most days.. sometimes 80%..
  • JoyceH: when you add the cacao to your green smoothie ( i eat a green smoothie every a.m.) .. can you taste the cacao? are your green smoothies on the sweeter side? I make all sorts of green smoothies so I guess i’ll have to experiment a bit..
  • lzhpt: thank you so much for the encouragement. I can’t wait to try your recipe! Kminty3: yum, i’m going to try your idea.. sounds delish!
  • I was very skeptic of superfoods in general & figured it was all hype.. i am now sold on them now & can’t wait to try other things. My husband who works 3rd shift often doesn’t sleep for 24 hours straight.. and when I fed him some cacao nibs…
  • mandelicious: just curious..does coffee do this to you as well? I know that coffee used to keep me up (especially if i drink it after noon ) ~~ but so far so good with the cacao. :) LibbyB: I also felt good this morning. I suffer from mild to modera…
  • mandelicious: I was afraid i’d get that same low too. but i didnt. I actually even slept better than usual?! I guess its different for each person? achin70: bliss! that’s exactly the word for how i felt yesterday :) thanks for the link too. Sweetpea…
  • i can purchase both goji berries & raw cacao from my local health store but I ordered this particular shipment from amazon.com (they were cheaper than my health store + free shipping!)
  • Ohhh have_mersey, I am glad to hear your confirmation on this! yay ! I cannot believe a food could make me feel so great. and I agree.. coffee does make you jittery .. i forgot about that. ( i recently gave up coffee and was so addicted for so long …
  • I love incan berries. they are a bit tart and tangy ( reminds me of sweet tart candy a little bit ) .. I just eat them plain. I know they are expensive – but a little goes a long way. I saw them a little cheaper on amazon.

  • I too noticed my ‘monthly’ headache has vanished. Every month I’d get a headache the day before my period. Now they are gone! No med would work for me either. i love what raw food can do!

  • suzeq; how do you heat it up? just on the stovetop? do you mix anything else besides braggs in with it? I’m wondering If chopping up some celery or red pepper or sprouted lentils would be good?
  • do you boil and use hydrogen peroxide each use? thanks for that tip. today I decided to take my pulp & mix it w/sunflower seeds, pepitas, braggs, olives, sundried tomatoes, pepper/salt & garlic and onion. I formed it into a pattie and ate it…
  • mine are drier too – but, i do think they have the sugar crystals under the skin?
  • ohhh. these are bulk packaged by the store. hm. guess I’ll have to ask – not sure if i’ll get the right answer though.. its happened to me before.
  • ohh thank you so much! I am happy to hear this. I looked it up a little bit and hadn’t found out much info online.
  • spinach makes me bloated and gives me horrible cramps no matter what I make with it. cooked ( before raw ) or uncooked.. now I put kale in my smoothies/salads and have no problem feeling bloated when eating it. So i guess it’s different for each per…
