  • *snarf slurp crunch chomp* Yum! Blood, guts and pus!!! even better is the image of suckling on a goats teat. Sick? It'll make you sick! Go vegan!
  • There are two main schools of thought when it comes to raw food. One is a high fat diet. And the other is a low fat high fruit diet. I personally switched from the high fat to the high fruit (maybe you would be interested in googling 80/10/10). Diet…
  • If you could only have one car your entire life how would you treat it?
  • Re: Candida- consider trying the "reducing fat" method of killing candida. Fats make the body slower at processing sugar so candida overgrow. Check out 80/10/10. Totally changed my life!

  • I think it's absurd and unnatural to breastfeed kids for so long. I think that the mother probably made an imprint on the children's minds that they NEED to breastfeed at some point and eventually the child comes to believe it too.
  • Thank you so much! I
  • Not sure if it's really really raw though.
  • I think it's a raw yogurt drink. It's not vegan. Pretty sure that's what it is...
  • THANK YOU SO MUCH KELLY! I missed that you replied until just now. I appreciate it.
  • Kelly- I remember you saying something about eating potatoes for digestive health. Can you elaborate on that? I'm very interested. Thanks so much!!! -Z
  • Hello Dear, I am so sorry to hear about your troubles. I have struggled with SAD (seasonal affective disorder... this time at least) my whole life. I find that when I stick to 80/10/10 for 3-4 days I feel sooo much better. The candida dies off and o…
  • Low fat. Some people have had experience with this over on www.30bananasaday.com. You could ask, people are very friendly.
  • digestive problems disappear on an 80/10/10 diet and there is no purpose for supplementation.

  • Airing everything out is so much more worth it! I refuse to stagnate ever. In fact, I'd rather bring up my own problems as fast as possible. A tiny bit of pain and so much gain. So worth it! You might be interested in checking out flower essences. F…
  • I used nutridiary.com to make sure I was getting enough calories. A lot of people on raw don't get enough calories and then use fat to make up the extra calories which is not really recommended by anybody. I need 2,500 calories a day to maintain my …
  • Dates and spicy are great in salads. Also, acidic fruit give me constipation so I stick mostly with sweet fruits, as acid fruits irritate my tummy. Also, juicy fruits help with the dreaded C, and are great for healing overall. Also, 30bananasaday.co…
  • Use protection if you don't want to get pregnant. It's very risky to do otherwise. I'm just warning you...
  • I was talking about charting temperature to find when one was ovulating... Which I did do "perfectly"
  • 2 people using this method that i know have gotten pregnant. including me. it's not good enough. our cycles vary sometimes.
  • Apples used to ALWAYS give me problems until I went on a pretty intense detox for about a month of eating only apples, berries, veggies, and just a few dates (i.e. no fat, bananas). Oh, and I always peel them now. It's so much easier to digest. Food…
  • I feel the best when I eat copious amounts of greens in fruit smoothies. Yummy! My body switches from craving fats to craving the smoothies. And smoothies are just easier to digest, and it's then possible to get the required protein by consuming ton…
  • First of all, chin up. You don't need to be depressed any more because raw food CAN provide you with all the answers. Somebody on here will post all the answers to your questions for you so you can move forward and be more informed.

  • Congratulations! That's great to hear :)

  • Howdy! I think you will have some great successes. When transitioning it is best to let your body eat whatever it wants. It is probably nutrition starved and will relish the good nutrient dense raw foods. After your body adjusts you can start playin…
  • OMG THE RECIPE I POSTED IS OFF THE CHARTS!!! BETTER THAN MASHED POTATOES!! No disapointment here :) I didn't end up making a gravy but oh wells, olive oil or even just plain rocks!

  • oo00OOO00ooo... reminiscent of caramelized shrooms and onions. delicious. I will probably whip this up. Thanks a bunch, waterbaby!
  • Thanks waterbaby :) That recipe sure looks complicated and right now I am a busy student... As of right now I am probably going to end up using olive oil and spices.
  • I thought chick peas=garbanzo beans? No?
  • It's your body. Stand up for yourself. She obviously doesn't respect your boundaries. When you stand up for yourself she should see that you are right and back off. Good luck! edit: actually, you may not want to take this advice since I have a horri…
