• Hmm, I had also heard 112-118. I wonder how that rumor got started? 99 is still a very long healthy life, it looks like his wife lived a long life as well.

• This is not quite a raw natural rememdy, but my BF got a series of microdermabrasion treatments. He had bad acne as a teenager with really bad scars and this smoothed his skin like nothing else. I should also note that he is not 100% raw but about 5…

• For most people it is to burn off the glucose and maintain a stable blood sugar.

• I tried that once, I had a terrible candida reaction ( not a detox ). It took me a couple of weeks of no fruit to get myself back into balance. I think like everything else, it works for some people and not for others. It was too much sugar for me.

• I’m on board but I’ll have to do green smoothie fast. I work a lot of hours so green smoothies give me more energy than juice. I once did a juice fast for 10 days but I was on vacation so I could rest when I needed to. I will also have to start tomo…

• I only made the recipe once as well and found it very overwhelming. With all of this inspiration I may tweak it and try again.

• You could also make the spicy taco meat ( recipe on this site ) with ground pumpkin seeds. I remember one of the people who commented on that recipe used pumpkin seeds instead of walnuts and said that it was fabulous.

• Also, I wanted to let you know that they would give you some medication to reduce the risk of adverse effects from the stroke ( if it is a stroke ). After the acute phase they would only suggest a blood thinner or an antihypertensive, of course that…

• I have a medical book written in the late 1800’s. In this book they talk about women’s menses and how it should be a small amount of dark ( older blood ) with some tissue and mucous leaving the body for about 2-3 days. They also talked about the new…

• Hello Wanna_B_raw, I’m also in Virginia. This is a great site for support, motivation and recipes. It’s funny how some of us gravitate towards fruit and others towards vegetables, I’m definately a veggie girl. Many blessings on your journey.

• From my experience, once your body starts to become clearer the cooked garbanzo beans in the hummus may start to effect you negatively. The good news for me was that I like the no bean raw hummus even better than the cooked garbanzo bean type.

• Zoe, it’s a moist cookie. It has a crumbly cake like coating covering a moist dried fig filling. Even though I’ve always loved them they are famous as a senior citizen treat ( maybe for the fiber ).

  in Figs! Comment by spirit
• Am I the only one who loved fig newtons? ( I guess so ) My new office partner at work has a fig tree and is going to bring some in as soon as they are ripe. I’ve never had a fresh fig and I’m very excited. I never knew that a fig tree could grow in …
