• You will not be able to get mung to naturally grow as long as the one's in the store; they aren't natural. You should harvest your sprouts in 3 to 7 days; some folks say day 6 is optimal. I typically prefer day five for most kinds, but day three for…

• I like to toss them in with diced apple, walnuts or pecans, maybe some buckwheaties, and top with nut mylk for "cereal". They are good tossed into a slaw, with raisins to balance the tart. Sometimes I just eat them as is.

• Up your greens dear. It's worked for me, and I am in my mid 40's. ;) They also improve mood, and keep your system clean. As for the blender, I have a cheap one myself. Try running your blender for a long time, at least 2 or 3 minutes after it all "l…

• I've made it in a processor, without adding oil, but it is hard work on the processor-- I've cracked the spindle on one before. Now, I typically use my coffee grinder, that I use for nuts and seeds and spice grinding. You can add oil, to help brake …

• personal experience: Up your greens intake. Seriously. I've noticed when I don't eat enough greens, my depression comes back. Consume at least two big green smoothies a day for several days, and see if that helps. I bet it does! :~) As for the "girl…

• Yeah, we've known about the Simply Raw (Raw for 30 Days) video for quite awhile now; it's what got our attention to Gabriel Cousens & his book (There is a Cure For Diabetes). He has There is a Cure, and the Green for Life books. We've also gotte…

• Yeah, he's not even doing 100%. He did for several days, but then his sugar went crazy, so he ate regular for a few days to regroup, and read up on everything. Now he has raw breakfast and lunch, and dinner is raw a few times a week, and a few times…

• Thank you both! vegwoman113~ He is considering ordering that book (we can't get it locally.) Have you read it? The reviews on amazon are mixed, and he is hesitant. Would love to know if it's really good, or just a big ad for his program. I'll sugges…

• stevio~ you still out there? I've found a couple of your posts, and you give me hope! You mentioned eating fruit, do you limit it, or eat a lot? Fruit was the bulk of my bf diet when he started this, I'm guessing mainly because it is easy, and it se…

• Congrats beany beegan! Yeah, it is a low cal (practically no cal) food, for sure! I've lost 70 lbs myself, roughly 25 or 30 since going high raw. At this point, though, I need the calories! I feel like I eat all the time, and most days barely brake …

• Ahhh, Natural Zing is cheaper than rawfoodworld on some other things I want, and they are way closer to me (so less shipping involved-carbon footprint and all, ya know) so I think I'll stick with them. Over at Sea Tangle; "$33.00 per case (12 units …

• glamazon~ They are 4.99 over at naturalzing. More, yes, but I plan on getting a few other things there. I may check out rawfoodworld (thanks!) and see if there are some other things I'm interested in right now. Saving a dollar isn't productive, if i…

• Ah, cool to know. Yes, I knew they were clear, but didn't know if they would be refrigerated or not. I had wondered. I looked in both areas at both those two stores, to no avail. But, I just now found them over at Natural Zing....so, YEAH! :~) http:…
