• However: This can work in your favour, where I work we had a candidate come for interview, at interview he out performed the other candidate, but, we looked up his online profile and found out he was increadably sexist and said that he enjoyed tryin…

• Good points jenoz It is important to “eat your values” and also think of the small additional costs now as an insurance policy against future ill health.

• I work that out to be Uk pound 2.94 or US 5.55 per meal. (three meals per day) to me that sounds a little expensive but not to bad. The main thing is, if you can afford it then thats fine! ;-)

• Yes, rest is very important, do not underestimate how little you can do after surgery. I had a shoulder op in march and although I felt fine very fast, I could not walk as that jogged the surgery site and made it hurt! so even though the legs could …

• My advice echo’s some given above in that if you only buy food for 2 or 3 days then you don’t waste any food because it has gone off in the fridge before you get to it. I don’t know how rawists fare compared to the general population but here in the…

• Don’t pass up a job opertunity for one meal! As branwyn says see if you can suggest the resaurant, if not get a salad or see if there are other bits on the menu that they can put on the salad, i.e. if they are offering spinach with another dish, ask…

• I agree with the “fixing” argument, so many unwanted and mistreated animals, suffering, we can minimise this just by making sure no more unwanted animals are born. BTW, I had a hamster who had an op (no I didn’t get her fixed lol!) she escaped and g…

• Asda in the uk also now has raw “kentish cobnuts” you can tell they are raw as they still have the leaves around the nuts attached and green, they are like greenish big fresh hazelnuts and are very good. Also is the issue of food irradiation, this w…

  in Sensitive teeth since bring raw Comment by springleaf
• Oh, another, not quite related thing. I had 2 tooth x-rays about 2 years apart, in the first you could clearly see a cavity at the back end of a molar, in the second it had gone, the dentist was most suprised, but we checked and it realy had gone. I…

• Yes, I have also heard that if you brush too soon after eating the low (acidic) ph of the food makes your tooth enamel softer and then when you brush it wears off! I have quite sensitive teeth anyway so any help on this one would be good. Are we/me …

• Bit of a warning. I bought a “L’Equip 528 Food Dehydrator” it didn’t dry food very well, was a pain to use and a pain to clean. In fact was such a pain that I gave it to a charity shop! I would recomend saving up for the excalibur, or not wasteing y…

• Clr, have bookmarked page to ask for free sample, but in the meantime, a question. Have you ever used them at 60 degrees centigrade? The website suggests 40, but for bf’s with asthma/exma (sp?) 60 is better as it kills dust mites and therefore less …

• Yes, I would think that the autolysis enzymes may cause a very small amount of digestion to occur before the food reaches the stomach, but I would think this effect would be minimal really, due to the short amount of time in which they have to work.…

• The following quote is taken from a recognised Biochemistry Degree level text book. “the protein nature of enzymes was not generally accepted until the mid-1930s when John Northrop and Moses Kunitz showed there is direct correlation between the enzy…

• Augh! We do not have to “cannibalize” our own bodies to digest food! The body has a whole organ called the pancreas to produce digestive enzymes. As I have said before there are literally thousands of enzymes made in our body and each has a very spe…

• Meditating: I had forgotten about the immune response to cooked food, which helps explain why raw is better. But. The enzymes in fruit and veg were not suposed to have the purpose of helping the body digest food. there is a difference between enzyme…
