• Great point Meditating! I agree with that. I don’t own a car and don’t plan to. I bike or walk everywhere, thus greatly reducing my carbon footprint. I plan to do more in the future… but i feel like not using a car has a huge impact already.

• in Enzyme Nutrition by Dr. Howell he mentions that white sugar caused heart disease in 68 of 80 pigs who were fed white sugar – no heart disease in the control group. also, this site has a good explanation However, if you’d prefer to see articles wr…

• Excellent clarification, Zoe. In summary… probably all store bought olives in bulk bins have been cured in lye, which is a toxic chemical. So although they’re not heated to high temps, they are chemically altered, which I wouldn’t consider yummy. To…

• kminty – that’s what i thought too! I realize that the oil isn’t raw, but I thought the non-canned bulk olives in the supermarket were raw. are the oil cured olives raw?

• khalderon – green smoothies are very beneficial to your health. that’s fine if you’d prefer not to eat them, but they are very beneficial. I don’t see how blending is unnatural compared to cooking. Cooking removes enzymes and nutrients – in contrast…

• Zoe – I wonder why they don’t sell raw carob everywhere, if it tastes better raw. I like carob – it’s different than chocolate. I find that it’s tasty in mousse (avocado, banana, sweetener blender – served w/ strawberries). It’s tasty in certain des…

• I agree with anngoingraw. things to do: use a coffee grinder on the dry nuts, OR soak them a while before blending them. if you do those things it can work without a vitamix. for pie crusts, i think walnuts would work nicely (walnuts and dates are a…

  in Need help: Substitute for Agave, Almonds Comment by Winona
• I’m not a mother, but I wanted to give advice regarding soft food. Do you have a vitamix? If not, it’s an excellent investment. You can put water and any raw veggie or fruit in the vitamix, and it will blend into a smooth puree. the vitamix easily h…

• I’m thinking about purchasing raw delivery through my raw restaurant in town. But then again, I can always eat there three nights a week – perhaps i should learn to make my own dinners the remainder of the week.

• Something to remember – most dried fruit at the store isn’t raw (unless it’s sold as raw by some online raw store). If you plan to be 100% raw, you may want to make your own dried fruit. I got my dehydrator and didn’t like the first 5 recipes i made…
