  in Is B17 + raw diet a cancer cure? Comment by Winona
• I sympathize. I gave up coffee, had some digestive problems – but fiber pills will take care of that! Buy some fiber pills quickly and start taking them. OR the natural route- drink green smoothies 3x per day. All that fiber is going to clean ya out…

• RAWGENE – if they smell funny, don’t use them – they’ve gone bad. I wouldn’t recommend trying to use them, even if you boil them. Instead, buy some fresh garbanzos and boil them, then you can cool the soup to room temp and add the rest of the raw in…

• Wow Dain5000, THANK YOU for pointing me to the book about B17! I read this in the amazon book reviews, and I wanted to post it here. It makes SENSE based on what I’ve read in some raw food books about enzymes… I want to investigate the biology of it…

• This is a well written post and an inspiration. I am amazed at how similar this is with my path to raw food. I’m 23 as well, vegetarian 8 years but only when I became vegan 2 years ago did I take an interest in healthy eating and food preparation. I…

• I’m using unhulled buckwheat. I’ve used wheatberries too – my food processor simply won’t grind them into dough, I tried last month. I’ll try drying and using a coffee grinder.

  in How do you grind sprouted buckwheat? Comment by Winona
• Ardesmond: if my food processor sucks and won’t grind them, what do you suggest? Dehydrate, then pop em in the coffee grinder? I might try that. Or should I buy a vitamix dry blade for this?

• Good info! Thanks for the heads up about flour sacks – perhaps I can find them at the grocery store.

• Haha omshanti, jenergy – ya’ll are funny. A yurt sounds fabulous, I really wish I could live in a small yurt community. And take care of horses and animals for a living. It’s good to get a dose of reality, omshanti – living close to nature sure is m…

• Oh yeah, my other big concern is safety. Couldn’t someone easily break into your yurt?

  in yurt living? Comment by Winona
• I want to hear more about yurts. I’d love to live in one – but I don’t have a car, and it’s only possible to get land in the woods (I’d need to drive to work). Does anyone have ideas about how to make my yurt living dream a reality? (aka buying a us…

  in Want to try going completely raw... Comment by Winona
• Somanybooks – I didn’t have any appliances and I was 80% raw for the past year. You can do it.. just start slowly. It’s easy to blend things in a blender or make some simple dishes by chopping. Try 2 new, simple recipes a week while you’re in transi…

  in Want to try going completely raw... Comment by Winona
• Yes! It certainly is possible. I live in upstate new york, and I’m 99% raw. I choose to eat entirely local in summer/fall (supporting a coop), and to eat some local in winter. For example, most root vegetables are edible. Lettuce is grown locally ar…
