• Of course, in a perfect world we wouldn't need to take supplements - but this isn't a perfect world and I am not going to risk deficiencies. I recently found out I'm very low in vit D and I live in northern England. I don't have the luxury of being …

• Just wanted to say that I think it's lovely you've made such an effort for you guy. My BF is great but has never once tried making a raw meal for me.

• Oh Wow, great to hear about raw meet ups in the UK. I'm in Manchester but Newcastle is just that bit too far for me.

• Mm, I don't really like the taste of celery but find it's ok when juiced with other greens, apples or lemon. Love cucumbers though!

  in Does anyone else experience this Comment by sv3
• Mm, it can be tricky navigating social events which involve food/resturants. You could just go somewhere you know will serve good salads as that would be an easy option for you to order. I know some people on this site have said they've taken their …

• Can't remember where I read it but someone once said something along the lines of "I'd rather talk about politics or religion before I discuss my food/diet choices"...I totally agree! There's nothing like food/diet to get people hot under the collar…

• Wow, I wish I could help but I've never lost my appetite (well, except once when I had a broken heart). I'm guessing it will probably come back naturally but if it doesn't maybe check it out with the docs. Have you had this before? Are there other t…

• tahiti, I wish you a speedy recovery - it must be really fustrating to have to go back to cooked food after being raw for a while. Sounds like you're doing really well though. Best wishes. :-)

• After finding out I'm pretty badly deficient in vit D, it's forced me to think about other essentials I may be missing outon. Powerlifter, you've made me think about iodine and I've just bought some kelp supplements this weekend. Thanks for bringing…

  in Maca and msm, how do you overcome the taste? Comment by sv3
• Haha, you're spot on powerlifer! That's exactly what I do with spirulina - a shot of that followed closely with a big glug of my breakfast smoothie/juice. It does make me shudder though.

  in Maca and msm, how do you overcome the taste? Comment by sv3
• I personally prefer them both in my green smoothies and I'm fine with the taste but I read some people take MSM in their lemon water. Tried it once and it seemed ok. Haven't really got a good suggestion for maca though as I like it in smoothies and …

• As a teenager I used to get terrible exam nerves and my dad gave me a hypnosis video to combat stress which I found extremely useful. I'd watch it the night before my exams (or any other stressful situation) and it chilled me right out. Occasionally…

• Most frozen corn has been blanched before being frozen, so it's not raw.

  in Dehydrators Comment by sv3
