• I could probably do better with food combining, but I always make sure I don’t combine avocados with nuts, or any fats with other fats, or fresh fruit with nuts.

• Yeah, that would be pretty sweet if we could send private messages.

• Hey Justin, I hope you have fun on this website! :)

  in I am new to the form and I am raw :-) Comment by rachel_akiko
• yeah, it takes a while for your body to clean itself out and get used to raw. When I first started I would randomly fall asleep in the middle of the day and feel really tired a lot.

• Speaking of lips, I sunburned the heck out of mine (and my face and shoulders) after hanging out at a waterpark for like five hours.

• Wow, that really sucks! I’ve never gotten poison ivy before, even though I’ve touched it before, and ran through it a few times. I’m glad I don’t have any reaction to it.

• I think it’s just an estimate. At least for me. :D

  in Calculating your Raw Percentage? Comment by rachel_akiko
• Lol, that happened to me when I went to Hot Harry’s (NASTY place) and me and my brother got salads with guacamole. The salad sucked and the guacamole was vinegary and weird tasting. Like preservatives. and then my dad got sick from his beef burrito.…

  in I HATE eating at SAD restaurants. Comment by rachel_akiko
• Spinach actually has a lot of protein in it. 45 percent of its calories are protein. :)

• But I love beets!!! I don’t want to be eating sugar beets :(

• Yeah, I’ve been wondering that too, since I have a lavender plant growing in the backyard. And peppermint too. I wonder if I could make some tea with it, or cookies, or raw breads or snack bars :D

• LOL, newbie, someone thought your green juice was a dare? that’s so funny. yeah, I get weird looks sometimes when I only eat fruit (like strawberries and pineapples) at a party or something (if they even have any) and especially if I bring my own…

• guacamole, any kind of sauce on noodles made from zucchini with a vegetable peeler, a spinach salad with avocado and tomato with olive oil and sea salt massaged into the spinach to make it soft… there’s LOTS of tasty recipes

  in Struggling to go Raw Comment by rachel_akiko
• tahini plus apple cider vinegar with cumin and turmeric and oregano and sea salt! :D I just love how that stuff tastes

  in Meatball recipe anyone? Comment by rachel_akiko
• Well, eating raw foods IS pretty cleansing in itself, but if you want to take it a step further, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with doing cleanses. They also give your body a break from digesting heavier foods like nuts :D

• Oh man, this topic is making me get all excited about getting a dehydrator in September. I can’t wait. SIGH

  in Dehydrator noise Comment by rachel_akiko
• Zucchini fettucini noodles with a spinach sauce made out of a cup of compressed and chopped spinach, an avocado and some sea salt and ACV. I also like ‘massaged’ spinach salads with chopped avocado and tomato, and I LOVE eating mushrooms straight ou…

• Angie, thanks for the info! It’s good to know I can keep using Madhava agave nectar, because the blue agave syrup is way too expensive, like two dollars more. :D

• Make sure it looks AND tastes good. One thing I’ve learned about bringing raw food to events is if it doesn’t look appetizing, nobody’s going to want to try it. :( If you have a dehydrator, maybe you could make some yummy sweet breads with flax, spr…

• Sprouts? Really? Cause I’ve been juicing LOTS of carrots, and I think it’s helping a little, but it’s taking too long for me. :/ I’ll check out that yoga for eyes thing, thanks! :D

  in Eye Sight Comment by rachel_akiko
• aww, the bigger one is loud? that stinks, because that’s the one I’ve been wanting. I don’t really have 175 bucks right now, so I probably won’t be the one that buys it. I hope you find someone to buy it soon, though! :)

• southernlover, you’re selling your dehydrator? How many trays does it have?

  in Weight loss Comment by rachel_akiko
• There are tons of recipes you can do without a dehydrator, until you get one. Like zucchini fettucini noodles made using a vegetable peeler, with a tomato dressing, or a spinach avocado dressing, and soups, salads, smoothies, and mango sherbert. Any…
