• Because I have had the same problem, mainly around Thanksgiving and Christmas when I’m making tons of nut-based sweets and waking up to an almond milk smoothie every morning, I just wanted to add my $.02—the L-arginine / Lysine ratio seems to be at …

• Dark leafy greens, seasonal fruits, avocados, frozen berries to keep on hand (you can’t always get them fresh), honey, lemons and/or limes, fresh ginger, some really good salt. I actually limit my flaxseed intake quite a bit, to the point where I ex…

• One avocado a day is actually pretty conservative by a lot of raw foodists’ measure! I’ve been known to get into 3 or 4 of them in a day if I’ve been doing a lot of strenuous things (long day hikes, martial arts, etc), but when they’re out of season…

• It depends what kind of pie it is! If it’s mostly cream or oil, it should be able to go in and out of the freezer no problem. If the filling is mostly a fruit puree, then yeah, you might have some problems if you keep freezing and defrosting it. Fre…

• This is an interesting subject to me, because for months my diet has been extremely simple (out of necessity, because I’ve been travelling a lot). Over the past 2 weeks since I’ve been home, I’ve been making a lot more complicated stuff and using my…

• Based on what I’ve observed of myself and other raw foodists, the difficulty in digesting the tough hard kinds of greens comes from not chewing them enough. You gotta really pulverize them, people. “Juice your food and chew your juice,” as they say.…

• I’ve been taking MSM powder in my water, about 4g a day, for the past 3 months, and at this point I’d consider it one of my “must haves”. It’s interesting so many of you have given it up because of the bitterness. I almost did, until I realized that…
