  • Thanks guys, glad to hear that there are no concerns with the foam. I love it love it love it.

  • Many people who do a serious liver cleanse report immediate and noticeable eye color change after doing it. I am planning on doing a liver flush next month, so I’ll let you know how it goes for my eyes. I am planning on taking before and after pics …

  • I have to second the Amen! on Cafe Gratitude in SF. I went there with some non-raw friends and they had no idea. Also, in NYC, RawSoul is a lovely little spot up in Harlem and in Chicago, Cousins Incredible Vitality (I know, funny name) rocks. They …
    in What is your favorite raw foods resturaunt and what dish do you like most? Comment by juleskess
  • Yo, same thing happened to me. I did the MC for ten days six months ago and have been raw ever since. And I was no vegan before either! It’s a miracle worker.
    in Lemons changed my life. Comment by juleskess
  • Hi, I’ve done it twice and really love it. The first time I did it was 6 months ago. Before that I was a normal eater, some meat, dairy, the works. After 10 days on it, I felt so good, I went raw and have been raw ever since. There is no way I could…

  • Thanks Lucy, I’ll remember that with the nifty mnemonic device “B-raw”

  • Audrey, Ah well, seemed too good to be true. How do I tell if the nori is raw? I remember someone told me the green is, but the black isn’t or vice versa. I can never remember.
    in S.O.S. - Sick of Salads! Comment by juleskess
  • Ambikalee, are rice paper wrappers RAW???? That would change my whole world. Skyespice, hang in there. You were doing so amazingly well with your two weeks of 100% raw and your husbands progress too. I was very inspired to stay at 100%. I don’t have…
    in S.O.S. - Sick of Salads! Comment by juleskess
  • I cannot say enough good things about the master cleanse. It will really help flush out your body of toxins and other narsties. However, mass quantities of pooing are a big part of the cleanse. You do a salt flush every day and take laxative teas ea…

  • How about increasing the amount of “binding” foods in your diet? I find bananas especially good for that.
    in an embarrassing question Comment by juleskess
  • Wow, that is really audacious. I would flip it back on them and take the opportunity to really soapbox. Bring in articles, visuals. “I am actually really glad that you guys brought this up with me because I have just been dying to tell you about the…
    in Grrr!! Frustrated by other people's non-understanding Comment by juleskess
  • Well, you should read about it (read the book if you can, it is only like 50 pages). Here is a good site to look at about it: http://www.therawfoodsite.com/mastercleanse.htm. The idea though is that you make a lemonade with 2 tbls lemon juice, 2 tbl…
    in Fasting/Detox Comment by juleskess
  • Eunice, welcome! I don’t about the water and fruit fasting, but the way that I started on raw food was by doing the master cleanse based on the book by Stanley Burroughs. I really believe that it was this cleanse that has allowed me to have such an …

  • I feel better now. Whew. Thanks for doing that research, I had no idea. Calcium intake was one of the things I had no answer for to my inquisitive (read, skeptical) relatives.
    in Calcium Comment by juleskess
  • rfoodie – it is a ten day cleanse where you drink a large quantity of lemonade made with maple syrup and cayenne pepper and eat nothing else for 10 days. You also do salt water flushing of your system every morning. You can find information on it at…
    in evil awful gas Comment by juleskess
  • Hi everyone. I just thought I would come back and share my success story with you. After 6 months of god awful, ruin-my-life gas I did the master cleanser for another round of just 5 days (doing the master cleanser for the full 10 days was what made…
    in evil awful gas Comment by juleskess
  • joseegonthier, thanks for your continued help trying to save my career from gas. I really appreciate it. Let me clarify: I eat the avo OR the pate and I eat the fruit OR the rolls or slaw. I know I can’t mix those things. Your suggestion about the o…
    in evil awful gas Comment by juleskess
  • How about pumpkin? I’ve make skinny noodles with it. Never tried lasagna noodles though.
    in evil awful gas Comment by juleskess
  • No, I used to eat all of that stuff before going raw, I just ate it steamed. Those veggies were actually some of my biggest staples and gave me no gas after the transition period. Maybe my raw transition period is just going to be smellier and longe…
    in evil awful gas Comment by juleskess
  • I don’t eat much dried fruit at all. I have green smoothies for breakfast, fruit to snack on through the morning, salads for lunch and generally a seed pate or avocado with more salad for dinner. I have been trying to keep track of the gas to food r…
    in evil awful gas Comment by juleskess
  • Breakfast is a green smoothie (spinach or chard mixed with the juice of one orange and 2 bananas). I snack on fruit throughout the morning (fresh figs mostly, some pears too, the occasional apple). Lunch is usually a large green salad with avo, pepp…
    in What's your Average Day Diet? Comment by juleskess
  • I thought that too, but no, I experimented. It is DEFINITELY the vegetables. ;)
    in fresh figs Comment by juleskess
  • I have no seasonal help to give, but I hear you on the fig love. They are always in season where I live and I eat a sick amount of them. Really I eat about 15 a day. I heart fresh figs. Ah.
    in fresh figs Comment by juleskess
  • mango woman, I am going through something similar. Did you maybe have a slip up that your body is dealing with now? I have been raw for 4 months now with no problems, and suddenly am a beast in the kitchen. I am eating a ton and have cravings for th…
    in Dried fruit binges Comment by juleskess
  • Zoe, thanks for your thoughts. It´s funy you should mention it because a lot of the reason why I have been trying to stay on a low fat raw diet comes from what you and Chris had to say about eating things that are not truly raw even though they are …
    in Low Fat Raw Headaches? Comment by juleskess
  • It looks great. I can´t get myself to like raw tomatoes though. Do you have any sugestions of things that might go well with it to substitute? (Zoe, well it wasn´t really kale, but some strange south amemican green that must be a relative, more bitt…
    in more leafy greens in my belly Comment by juleskess
  • Wow, those are all wonderful suggestions, many thanks. I also tried the marinated kale and lentil salad today. I didn’t love the lentils, but I ate up the kale like crazy. Overnight marinating greens does wonders! My blender is so terrifying, I neve…
    in more leafy greens in my belly Comment by juleskess
  • Do you juice the greens and parsley first? I have a so-so blender and always end up chewing greens with the smoothie. It´s not juice or smoothie-like at all. erg.
    in more leafy greens in my belly Comment by juleskess
  • Do it Deika! I think that the master cleanse was what allowed me to have such an easy transition. It was not only that after it I felt so great there was no way I could go back, but more importantly, it cleared out my cravings so I didn’t have to st…
