  • 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…
  • loveskale: In my opinion teeccino is the closest thing to an herbal substitute that tastes alot like coffee! I bought some and drink it on occasion. I did have some regular coffee today when I went out with my cousin. The first time in almost a mont…
  • stRAWberry: thanks for that tip from your grandmother. I am trying it tomorrow a.m. for sure! greenie: ..thanks :) lzhpt: you have incredible willpower 1/4 a cup! I can’t even have coffee in the house ;p amysue: I’m still waiting for my body to rele…
  • oh! and thanks rawclaire for the algae info. I’m totally clueless on it so i’m going to go google now :)
  • thanks for all your support. the reason I’m trying to give up coffee is because I read that even that 1-2 cup I drink in the a.m. will still effect my sleep at night. I wake very easily. ( I sleep with earplugs too ) – but any little thing wakes me …
  • Dain5000: does Yerba Matte taste anything remotely like coffee by chance? i miss the taste of coffee big time too. Winona: I just had a green smoothie per your tip. I still might go get some fiber pills as well. thanks.
  • ardesmond2: I was hoping your garbanzos went well so I could be inspired to try it again. I’ve just read about too many cases of stinky/slimy garbanzo sprouting for me to waste my time and money again. Have you successfully sprouted any other bean y…
  • ardesmond2 I soaked them for only 1 day ( which wasn’t enough at all because they never got soft ).. I did do the rinse and repeat but they had this really spoiled smell so I knew they weren’t right. How are yours doing? any smell? will you keep me …
  • I started to see some tails too ..but the smell just wasn’t right. really really stinky – I threw them out. :(
  • I had migraines on a regular basis for years on end. I had my wisdom teeth extracted 4 years ago and never got another migraine to date!
  • I’m in the process of trying to sprout garbanzo beans ( for the first time ) .. I’m on day 2 and already see the tails starting to come out!! I just used regular dry garbanzos (in a bag from my natural food market) ... I’m a whiz at hummus so I’m ex…
  • i just wanted to note on this topic just incase anyone new to raw experience my problem.. i am now feeling fine and i was definately detoxing. ( I still am.. just in other ways..glad the bowel part of detox is subsiding! phew! )
  • queenfluff; thanks for the tips. yeah, they suddenly are dry now ( and now I’m constipated! ).. I’m going to try popcorn and more liquids – that makes total sense. lzhpt: Oh yay! a light at the end of the tunnel! and you are right… I am noticing les…
  • dkyoung: good idea lessening the amount of nuts. I think I learned my lesson and will try to incorporate them into my diet s-l-o-w-l-y.. amysue: it sounds like I am having the exact problem you did. i’m relieved it may go away because I didnt want t…
  • dkyoung: yes, I didn’t hardly eat nuts at all before I went raw. I didn’t soak the nuts I made my recipes with .. so I’m going to for sure going to try doing so next time. It makes total sense now that almond milk didn’t cause me any pain because I …
  • i’m happy for you! sounds like it could happen for sure :)
  • Luna blu: LOL, I didn’t realize I typed the “going nuts chopping nuts” thing. ;p stylistchick: good idea. I’m going to try that. hopefully i’ll get lucky. rawclaire: do you have a dry blade? or just use the one you make smoothies with? this is the 2…
  • oh gosh, I would go nuts chopping 2 cups of nuts to a fine meal to make a crust! with a toddler underfoot I need ways to make my life easier not harder ;) I’ll have to revise the pie idea somehow.
  • oh shoot! i recently got rid of my coffee grinder! darn it. thanks for the tips.. 123, i tried w/my vitamix to blend them and it shorted out! (temporarily) ~ probably because I was grinding 2 cups worth?
  • wow, thanks for posting all this info. I’ve been meaning to research the nutritional value of cucs :)

  • thanks dain5000 for those links. I found them very helpful. ( i like to keep links like that on hand for my skeptical family ) Jenny: wow, I am so happy for you. I too suffered most of my life with horrible cramps ( they lessened after each of my pr…
  • I’m pretty new to raw & I noticed that the past 2 months my periods are much lighter ( pretty much clot free ) ..no cramps. it’s amazing. does anyone know how raw makes this happen? I’m curious.
  • I am a Christian. I am a newbie at eating raw. I am about 50% raw. I am very excited to be on this journey of eating better. I’ve noticed my depression disappearing and PMS is gone this month! I always try to explain to people who think I eat weird …
