• How about dried apricots? Figs are another possibility, though their seeds would change the character of the dish. Sometimes a liquid sweetener (honey, agave, yacon) would suffice if the dates are not a huge part of the recipe.

• I would have suggested magnesium if you hadn't brought it up yourself. And you probably already know this, but eating a wide range of different foods will ensure you get a range of nutrients, too.

• I know what you mean about zucchini; I get tired of it so fast. I like to use a combination of cucumber and carrot for a refreshing "pasta"--not too much like cooked pasta, but I'll take it over zucchini any day. Beets are also fun if you don't mind…

• Being on the pill will disrupt your hormones significantly, and it will take quite a while for your body to equalize. But five years is quite a while, so that may no longer be a significant factor for you. In the meantime, you may want to consider a…

• Flax can go rancid very quickly. If you start out with fresh flax, it's usually fine after dehydrating, but if the seeds are old, you might wind up with a spoiled product when you dehydrate. In general, the golden flax seeds taste milder than the br…

• If you're willing, grapefruit seed extract is great; I take tablets, and when I feel an infection of any kind coming on, I find that taking about 2x what the bottle recommends helps fight it off within a day or two.

• thecavsman - I totally get what you're saying, and the dogmatism of the 8/1/1 crowd turns me off in a big way. I especially hate to see that their answer to any health issue that one of their "followers" experiences is that they're "not doing it rig…

• Hopefully this has cleared up by now, but I find that a drop of colloidal silver put in the eye clears up infections pretty quickly for me--usually by the next day. If not, I follow it up with another drop or two and I'm fine. However, this is an of…

• The body takes longer to digest fats than to digest sugars, which is why people recommend eating fruit early (so it's not sitting in your digestive system on top of fatty foods and fermenting). However, if you're not experiencing digestive difficult…

• I don't eat onion or garlic often at all, but when I do, I find that sometimes I can smell it on my breath, in my urine, and coming out of my pores for days afterward, whereas other times I don't notice this at all. I'm sure there's some body chemis…
