  • i am not really sure how they make the braggs but it is not really raw. i made onion break without it and it was fine. oh i have heard that salt can make you retain fluid??? you got excited and tried a lot at once. you will find more of a balance la…

  • Izhpt—I have tried physical therapy twice. Once with a guy who basically sucked. Then again with a woman who was really great. She was able to help me to a point. I basically cured all my muscle problems that were making the problem much much worse.…
  • Well it’s been better. I am going through some grief feelings that I have began to let out in the last few years but before that had not processed them. Sometimes when you lose someone slowly due to them becoming less of who they are due to dementia…
  • thank you chris. i live in seattle. i will look as well. karuna, i am not very overweight but i am losing some. i don’t know how much of a factor 10 pounds will be. everything helps i suppose.

  • Not sure about the creamy but i think tea is good. i know most tea leave/herbal blends are probably not raw but you could dry your own herbs. i like ginger in hot water too. you could add some almond milk to your tea to make it warmer. it won’t heat…
  • hi justin! you will find that there are some all raw people on here and some part raw and some experimenting. explore and ask questions!
  • mamamilk—yes, i am a teacher and i agree with that. that is why it is so important to as a teacher, question, not preach. it’s funny because from a teacher’s perspective, the parents are the ones who seem to be the main influence! i teach 4th grade.…
  • From what I have read, juicing will speed up detox. If this is not a good time for you, you can slow that down by eating just raw. I have just transitioned off birth control pills and also have had friends tell me their stories. Yes you can be havin…

  • i do not thinking eating a lot of raw hummus made with zucchini is something to worry over. you are lucky one of your favorite cooked foods can be easily made raw! you might still be in that adjustment period where you are still figuring out how to …
  • this was pretty frustrating for me at first. because i didn’t know anything about raw and i was off buying the wrong ingredients for supposedly all raw recipes. now i know better but it would have saved me some aggravation and wasted money.

  • I think it is natural to have some ebbs and flows of energy in the first few weeks. Don’t restrict what you eat, as long as it is raw. If anything, just add MORE of things that are high energy like fresh juices and green smoothies. RawK, from what I…
  • great! i am so happy for you. i have been detoxing from my meds this month and it has been HARD. so i am glad it is going ok for you. weaning off is for sure the way to go.
  • good for you! bastyr university in Seattle is a great natural health school. you can get a nutrition degree as part of it. the people there are really great.

  • Hi followthe sun. Good for you for realizing that the vegan diet is not always a helathy one. And in 6 months too! It took me a lot longer to get there. there are a lot of fancy recipes on this site and out there but you don’t have to do them. altho…

  • i am not sure. but being vegan i don’t use it. just agave nectar. according to alex jamieson author of “the great american detox diet”, honey can be 25-60% sweeter then sugar. apparently there is no industry standard, it varies from batch to batch. …
  • i hope you start feeling better soon old skuul. yeah i knew i could do the raw diet when i found out about raw cacao. :-)
  • i’m glad you are finding what you need. one of the most frustrating things for me about having a deficiency was that all the resources they gave me were for cooked food. grrrw. i like nutritiondata.com but maybe you already know it.

  • I’m glad you found something. The coffee urges will get a lot better after 2 weeks. Well at least I hope so. Fruit is amazing. I just can’t get enough of it some days.
  • germin8 it may have just been a GI bug. you know what i mean. it took a few days to get out of my system. yup, i have googled raw foods at first when i went raw and it says one of the risks is that some fruit carry bacteria from people handling them…
  • little birdie thank you. i do think we are going through similar stuff such as medication, etc. i had a total relapse on b-day but i planned it in advance so it was different i think. i have gone through 11 years of not eating wheat and get really s…
  • oh. i’m sorry it was so hard. it sounds like one of those dam broke open kinda things. coffee and sugar are definitely little devils! so are cheetoes! socializing with non-raw can be a problem. i went to a picnic on Tuesday and everybody was like, “…
  • oh those crackers are so good especially the mexican harvest ones. yumm. with avocado.
  • ok dizziness and light-headedness can be a vitamin deficiency. chances are he’s getting lots of great vitamins now but just in case he could take an overall vegan multivitamin. i would up the dark leafy greens. make sure they are organic. and wheatg…
  • use buckwheat. it’s very cheap.
  • it is worth taking a b-complex to get all the b vitamins. i take vital nutrients b-complex. i DO think it is important to either supplement or have your blood levels checked periodically to see if you are running low. weird thing, i as a vegan did n…
