• One step at a time is better if you want the detox to be less intense. I’m an “extreme” person too, but I’m slowing learning that the body really isn’t an all-or-nothing thing. It appreciates all the little health improvements we make. Ooh, and have…

• I’ve never been persistent enough to do it regularly, so I don’t know if it really works at removing toxins. I can say that my teeth look super clean afterwards.

• 4/20 threw me off track a bit as well. I ate brownies and um, quite a bit of cooked food after that. I’ve been drinking loads of vegetable juice since so I feel less wretched. It was interesting how anticlimactic the taste of all those cooked foods …

• I mush half an avocado mixed with lime juice and pepper into almost every salad I eat. I also love making avocado chocolate pudding. And guacamole! Oh, the guacamole… I hear mango and avocado are sublime together, but every time I have either I eat …

• I too have decided to quit smoking marijuana. I’ve been seriously depressed in the past but a raw diet and yoga have changed that. Lately my lungs have been aching and I don’t feel I need it to make me happy, because I already am. I totes think it s…
