• You should think about your eating habits before you buy your new machine.. Are you more of a simple recipe person who prefers smoothies and easy to make foods? Then you would benefit most from a new high-speed blender.. do you like crackers, cookie…

• Wow I know that the ones we get here are pretty natural (they usually have some dirt on them meaning they weren’t washed or anything) and from what I know they are organic. Usually the ones we get from Iran are the best but I’ve seen some nice ones …

• Even though I am going raw and hope to be 100% in the days following my daugther’s birth, my husband isn’t and doesn’t have any plans to be more than 40-50% raw.. He was blessed with an AMAZING metabolism and has trouble gaining even a pound. But he…
