  • Oh yeah, definitely planning on sprouting them until they have cute little tails.
  • Currently, we are delaying and selectively vaccinating. The really important one for us was dtap because whooping cough(pertussis) is on the rise and it nearly killed my half-brother when he was two. The rest we are omitting, but keeping an open min…
  • My daughter loves almond milk and hazelnut milk. She also got mama milk until age 2.
  • Sorry, it's an outdated link. I updated it in my profile, and here's the new link: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6361872964130308142
  • I think I’d also like to add Richard Blackman. He’s one sexy fruitarian.
  • I’m contemplating leaving my husband for Sergei Boutenko. Okay, not really, but that is one dreamy man.
  • Link to article: http://www.cnn.com/2008/HEALTH/diet.fitness/09/...
  • Do you mind if I ask a couple questions? 1.) How many calories are you eating daily? Sometimes it can be hard to get enough calories in every day. 2.) What is your daily menu like? A lot of health problems can stem from too much fat and not enough f…
  • Well, my husband wants to move to either Victoria or Vancouver. I fell in love with Montreal last time I was there and prefer Eastern Canada in general. So we’ll see. It will probably depend on the job market at the time.

  • What I’m trying to say is that the amount of calories he needs may be very different than what he’s consuming now. If I fill up my VW with cheap diesel from some truckstop in the middle of nowhere, I get 35 miles/gallon. If I fill it with ultra-low-…
  • I guarantee he will be eating fewer calories per day if he were eating healthier. He could probably cut it down to 6000-8000. He could eat healthy, high calorie fruits, nuts, avocados, lots of smoothies, etc. If the man can drink 2000 calories in sp…
  • We use IKEA mattresses. They are treated with an “eco-friendly” flame retardant as opposed to the normal cancer-causing kind. Not as good as an organic mattress, but still better than standard mattresses.
  • That’s insanely low for calories. Your body needs fuel to survive. Even if your goal were to lose weight, you would need to double the amount of calories you are eating. If it’s too maintain weight, you should triple it. You need a lot more greens i…
  • Alright, so here’s the thing. My partner doesn’t believe in homeschooling at all. He has this misguided notion that it’s only for religious people that don’t want to teach evolution or that kids will be socially inept. Now, I don’t agree with him an…

  • No point in having regrets, Meditating. You are a great mom even if you weren’t exposed to the knowledge you have now when he was a little one. And think of all the great stuff you’ll be able to teach your grandkids! I really wish I was able to home…

  • I actually find it easier to prep foods having such a little one. I rarely make gourmet raw meals…I prefer just eating the fruits, veggies, and nuts whole or in salads. My little one loves finger foods, so I just have to cut things up into little st…

  • I grew up in central New Hampshire. That’s too funny about our husbands. Mine wants my to move further north, to Washington or British Columbia(his home province.) I’d be happy in a little cabin on the coast of Costa Rica or something like that.

  • Hi there! My daughter is almost 19 months old and she eats about 75% raw/25% cooked vegan. I’m a bit closer to 85% raw. My partner is not raw. I’m a stay-at-home mom and I love having the opportunity to be so involved with my daughter. I hope to be …

  • My daughter is almost 19 months. That’s an older picture, she was about 13 months old in it, Here’s a recent one http://s120.photobucket.com/albums/o179/justine… I agree that everyone needs to do what’s right for them. I consider myself and my daugh…
  • I’m not trying to discredit shazzie. I think she brings up very good points that we need to pay attention to. However, I want to see the evidence and examples behind those points so that I can interpret them for myself. By organic, I meant that the …
  • I’m sorry, but this article was just an opinion piece that offered no real evidence. I’m glad someone is trying to look out for the children, but there should be real, tangible evidence in the article if it’s going to convince people that raw is unh…
  • Where do you live? I’m in Northern California and Lunardi’s is selling them for 39 cents a lb. Farmer’s Markets should have some too.
  • Certain fruit trees are lower in pesticides, like oranges, grapefruit, lemons, and limes. They have such a thick skin, that you can peel off a lot of the chemicals. Bananas have a thick skin too, but I wouldn’t buy non-organic bananas unless they ar…
  • I eat between 2200-2500 calories a day to maintain my weight. I don’t exercise as much as I used to and if I start exercising more, I think I will lean towards the 2500 side of that. I also nurse a toddler and that consumes some of the calories. I’m…
  • Hey Guys! I have a question. What would you bring on a backpacking, camping trip? Fruit is heavy to carry and takes up a lot of space and I know dried fruit is not recommended. Greens are light and 0.5-1 ounce of nuts or seeds per day is light. What…
  • I think I’m going to join you guys. I can’t go all in(I’ve got a wedding coming up and a honeymoon weekend with lots of bad for me alcohol) but I do want to make the eventual change to 811rv. It just makes the most sense to me of any diet out there.…
  • That is such a sweet video, but I’m really surprised that the lioness allowed them to pet her. That was the part that blew me away. Now I want a lion hug!
  • 1.) Raw seeds and nuts are usually dormant and sprouting activates their enzymes. Also, sprouting makes beans and grains digestible raw. 2.) Yes, but I find that they digest better when sprouted. 3.) Sprouting involves no more effort than rinsing a …
  • That’s cool RawKidChef, like I said I don’t eat 100% raw either. I just think the pH of cooked orange juice may be different than fresh and that’s why I reacted. Before I got my $200 juicer, I did my orange juicing by hand with a $5 citrus juicer. I…
  • Yep, pretty much any juice you buy in a store is cooked(pasteurized.) Occasionally, smaller grocery stores fresh squeeze orange juice in the morning and sell it near the deli section. You can also get fresh-squeezed from a juice bar or some cafes/re…
