• If you're thin and weak, you're not eating enough food. What is your daily diet like? Fat, calories, that sort of thing.

  in what do you do if......... Comment by TomsMom
• Yes and no. I mean, I will always have troubles with a new lay-out, always. I had to teach myself to read when I was a kid, so it's not like I'm the brightest bulb in the pack. But I have total faith in Kandace and Ray, and they're not finished with…

• I know how you feel, rawcanadian. I was enjoying this thread until the non-stop sales pitch from bryan started. Again. I hope readers keep an open mind when reading his posts, because sometimes he fibs about products. On agave, though. The first tim…

• Just some, but not most.

  in Using frozen vegies Comment by TomsMom
• Yes, Cascadia Frams blanches their vegetables and greens before freezing. Cascadia Farms helped to promote the myth of raw frozen vegetables themselves by not being honest when they were asked outright until recently. The first time I wrote to them …

• My hulless oats are raw. I've sprouted them. I had to buy them from a sprouting store, though, to ensure they were raw, since most oats are steamed(I think). Don't assume anything is truly raw, even organic, unless you've specifically asked how the …

• Wow, I just read the last post that I missed. So you ARE actively advising people to avoid informing themselives and take this drug. Now, I'm sure of what I am reading. Red flag here, folks.

  in cipralex Comment by TomsMom
• What a scarey thread. Zoe. S., you should read about any side effects of any drug you take, not refuse to read them. That information is there for both you and your doctor. You can die. I hope your doctor didn't tell you to avoid informing yourself.…

• wow, am I the only one who sees the out-and-out falsehoods in that first article? Look, if you don’t want to eat 100 percent raw, you don’t need to. The only thing I see here is justification for desires in diet.

• I just doubt my juicer is leaving only fiber. I wish there were charts for raw juices.

• It’s an algae that’s used to thicken liquids.

  in Irish Moss? Comment by TomsMom
• I’ve lost an even 100 pounds(so far), and I was morbidly obese when I started. A lot of the so-called “loose skin” is just sagging because of a huge loss of muscle tone from being inactive while obese. As far as stretch marks are concerned, they are…

• David, the raw vegan diet is not making her bulemia worse. ANY diet that proposes a semblance of control in the mind of a person with disordered eating can get out of hand. Eggs and fish mean dick to a person with a true eating disorder. This is why…

  in raw food turned eating disorder Comment by TomsMom
• This runs in my dad’s family, although the form is not so severe(thank God). To be honest, I would skip the fasts and starvations. It’s going to stress his body, not mention depress his spirit(unless he enjoys this sort of thing). Would he be willin…

• I need to add that I’m sure some raw stores sell truly raw nuts, but it’s really hard to get a straight answer from them as far as how the nuts are processed and I have gotten rancid nuts from one of them. If you can’t afford to experiment with ship…

  in A Couple Of Questions about being raw... Comment by TomsMom
• In answer to your nut question about raw or organic, they should be raw first, and organic second. You shouldn’t eat heated and denatured fats. If you can actually find raw nuts that are also organic, that’s great, but my experience is that the popu…

  in Prop 2 in California Passed!!!!! Comment by TomsMom
• A great move for animals, but sad that California decided that gays are not a part of their society(Prop 8). Of course, the state will still gobble up their tax money:-)

• Awesome, Kendra! (and thanks for the blessings, so sweet)

  in OBAMA WON!!!!! Comment by TomsMom
• Kendra, that is awesome that Nov. 4th was also your birthday! Well, Happy Birthday!!!:-)

  in OBAMA WON!!!!! Comment by TomsMom
• People are right to be proud, Caleb. Only someone who thinks being a defeatist is fashionable would be so crude as to crap on those who are proud to have supported a black president.

  in OBAMA WON!!!!! Comment by TomsMom
• I cried so hard I almost barfed. I grew up when black Americans were beaten in the streets for speaking their minds, so this election is really special to me. I”m still amazed that Americans got over themselves. I’m proud of them.

• Wow, I think you over-reacted, there, rawbryan. I don’t think anyone is judging you or attacking you. Actually, people have pointed out the number of recipes using sweets and dehydrated foods before. But as I said earlier, they are recipes, not necc…

  in Why do people eat so many dates, cashews, dehydrated foods? Comment by TomsMom
• I don’t think people are actually eating those recipes every day. My mom’s cookbook is filled with recipes for cakes and pies, but she doesn’t eat them every day:-)

• ieva, I forgot to check back with you; I’m sorry! I sort through my chickpeas before I even start to soak, removing any darkened pea. When you soak them, they should swell up a lot! If, after 12 hours, you see chickpeas that remain small and shrivel…

  in how to sprout??? Comment by TomsMom
• I completely cover my chickpeas in water and let them soak for 12 hours in a dark place. I then rinse them, cover them up with water, and soak them again for another 12 hours in darkness.(total soak time 24 hours) Then I rinse and drain and let them…

• Doubt it. I don’t bother with anyone who rants like a fanatic. The fresher, the better, yes, but unless you plan to lay out on a field on your belly and gently graze, nothing you get in a store is going to be just a few minutes old. Don’t worry. I w…
