• I'm on the fence about vaccinations. I do not know anyone personally who has had any adverse effects from vaccinations. I choose to avoid vaccines whenever possible. Like the flu vaccine, for example. I really don't understand what is so scary about…

• Wow, that's really interesting. I've only been raw for 30 days, but one thing I have noticed is that my hair has become much thicker and the few strands of gray I did have have gone away completely. I'm hoping it stays this way. How long have you be…

• I have been having the exact same problem. I don't crave coffee, I don't want it...but for some reason my body will not let go of the addiction. I'm a complete mess in the morning and my head feels like a total foggy mess. It's been the hardest part…

• Yeah, I am consuming a lot of seeds and nuts too (all raw/unsalted, of course). I am still trying to figure out which amounts of everything is best for my body (I'm waiting for it to tell me). I've been trying to balance my meals daily to equal 1/3 …

• This is a good thread. I was wondering about Tofu myself. I too have seen "raw" cookbooks which have tofu in some recipes and actually was a little taken aback by it. I always thought tofu, for the most part, was processed food. This inspired me to …
