  • Just a question cause I’m so curious… I have cut out dairy from my diet recently.. yesterday and today I feel like I’m getting a head cold but I’m wondering if I could be detoxing from just one thing? I’m not 100% raw but I wanted to see if cutting …

  • Maybe the song and the dancing are the effects of the rubber bands? lol well as long as you’re feeling fine then that’s good. Next time I’d suggest you make sure to have a rubber-free smoothie.
  • Wow.. I’m wondering how the rubber bands got in there in the first place?? I think I can assume it wasn’t an intentional addition to the smoothie? I can tell you that I have on more than one occasion missed those things on my greens… even the bright…
  • That is really funny.. or sad depending how you look at it. I was about 80% raw when I got pregnant 9 1/2 months ago, I’ve gone up and down the raw scale during this pregnancy and except for a few small problems (nothing that was related to foods) I…
  • Nothing says remedy like raw honey and cinnamon. For centuries honey has been used as a medicine to cure thousands of ailments. Not to mention cinnamon, which is great for things like colds. Make a tea using hot water (not boiling, just hot enough t…
  • Wow I thought I was the only pregnant lady who just craved potatos and rice for a while.. (actually I thought it was just the Irish in me) then it was bananas and dates.. now it’s pomogranets.. I’m thinking hey, at least I’m craving raw now.. I woul…
  • Congratulations RAWmen!!! Having a baby is the single most exciting, scary, wonderful and fulfilling thing that happens in a woman’s life. So you’re about a month that’s great.. morning sickness (if you happen to get it, not all women do) may start …
  • Hi desenchantee! I was just wondering from your first post how you feel and how you think you look right now at 138lbs.?? Do you feel healthy? I’m 27 and I think I’d give my right arm (and maybe a few other things) to be close to 138.. And while I’m…
  • The way I was always brought to believe (and still do) is that the pains of childbirth are not something to be afraid of at all, rather embraced and worked with to bring your baby into the world. I believe that if you expect that there will be pain …
  • I have to agree with itourist, pills and supplements are a “concentrated” version of what is found in nature. When I was studying to be a nurse they stressed that you could over dose on as little as 5 Vit. C tables but you could eat nothing but oran…
  • Ok after we broke fast last night I decided to share my goodies with the in-laws and see what they thought. Now keep in mind NONE of them have ever see or tasted granola before. They all LOVED it, especially my mom-in-law. She loved the almonds and …
  • I think it helped that it was surrounded by baby clothes and blankets… kept the glass safe and all.. but after a month-long trip it tastes completely fresh. We were at family’s house last night to break the fast so I didn’t get to share with my mom-…
  • No joking guys… My husband, who’s never tried granola before, at one point said “Hon yo gotta stop me or you won’t have any left!” He’s totally planning on finding a way to order more (even if it takes a month to get here) because he wants to try th…
  • Actually it may have come from another source, perhaps the equipment that is used to bag it was tainted by someone or something carrying the E.Coli virus.. (My guess is the mice and rats that are most likely in the packaging plant) Sad that a name l…
  • Well then welcome to the Gone Raw neighborhood!! Not everyone here is 100% raw and that’s ok.. the point is to do as much as you feel is right for you. I personally look forward to seeing your posts and recipes.. K-Mom

  • Hi Lauri.. here’s my advice for what it’s worth.. Before I started raw foods I had extreme fatigue everyday, infact it was me trying to stay awake long enough to do anything!! Imagine if you will falling asleep during a phone conversation or in a pu…
  • Hi Dee! Let’s face it moms are always our biggest supporters AND our worst at the same time.. It sounds like your mom is misinformed and set in her ways (grew up on the “meat and potatos” diet and feels that’s the best way to eat) I think what she R…
  • I had a cat that did the exact same things I kept her litter box clean everyday (I even tried changing the litter every 3 days for a few weeks.. lots of money but I thought it would help) She had toys and friends (my brother and mom each had a cat t…
  • It’s always hard when you and your loved one don’t share the same way of life.. And even eating is a sort of “culture” that is influenced on us since we were wee babies. It can be very difficult for cultures to mix without a few road-bumps.. It’s be…
  • I have a question?? How exactly did they tell you, you start forming scar tissue?? I would think that they’d have to scratch or cut the tubes to get them to form scar tissue around the springs.. maybe I’m wrong. However I wouldn’t trust ANY birth co…
  • I used to like E.R., Cops, and America’s Funniest Home Videos.. lol I don’t know if they are even still on t.v. now.. I watch 4400, touching evil, bones, and sometimes X-files.. it’s hard to get the programs here in Kurdistan but we have a dish so w…
  • As far as I know the smoothie should be just fine.. I’ve heard of alot of people doing that and said all it needed was a shake or stir before you drink it and it was the same as “just made”. Also I know of people who make a large pitcher full of gre…
  • Blushes Aaaawww Omshanti.. you’re so great! I’ll definately be asking my mom-in-law about that one.. he he. I found out that we have Swiss chard here too, I’ve been thinking about the grape leaves but they are all getting pretty old and dry now so I…
  • Wow thanks so much everyone.. all these great advices and positive thoughts help so much.. You guys are so wonderful!! K-Mom
  • Ok so I did some intense serching on the internet for the english names of some of the things we have in the market that are green. Lo and behold I found out that we have swiss chard! Infact it’s completely common here and you can get it year round.…
  • Hi again rawmama… it’s funny you should mention Victoria’s “Green for life” book because I happen to have a copy given to me personally by Victoria. Also my testimony at the start of my raw-ness is in that book. I sometimes read it when I’m having a…
  • Thanks everyone for the advice.. I’m looking into getting some walnuts for an extra B2 and I’m going to try to find some cherries (they’re pretty much out of season now but I might still be able to find some dried ones) Thankfully it looks like the …
  • I had a question that’s been weighing on my mind.. I’m not sure I’ll be able to breastfeed, I had a breast-reduction surgery at age 16 (long story) and was told then that breastfeeding may be possible but it’s a wait-and-see thing. I suppose I would…
  • Hhheeeeyyyy CONGRATS Omshanti!!! Sounds like you were a huge hit (with the exception of new zealand-hot dog-guy) The little old lady cracks me up!! So many people dream of “doing it” and so few achieve it.. I’m really happy for you… Good luck on the…
  • Thanks Omshanti.. it’s last winter’s pic but I don’t think we’ve changed much since then (well except for the big tummy I have now..) I’m excited because Ramadan (our month of fasting) is less than 2 weeks away. I’ve been trying to eat more fresh fr…
