  • I'm with Bitt, I generally don't worry about food combining. However, I think my digestive tract is coated with teflon because nothing seems to upset it.

  • I never soak unless a recipe specifically tells me to. I'm a rebel, what can I say.
  • Aha! Dried - maybe look for goji recipes and sub?

  • I'd think you could adapt a number of recipes using berries - and here are recipes that mention mulberries http://goneraw.com/search/node/mulberries type:recipe There are eight pages of recipes with blueberries! http://goneraw.com/search/node/bluebe…

  • Congrats! It looks nice.

  • They are wonderful marinated and raw. If you want the chewier texture it would be fun to dehydrate a bit. Let me know how it goes.
  • Rather than a substitute, which sometimes will disappoint, what about playing around with toppings that add a lot of flavor of their own, like pesto? Spicy sundried tomato paste? Red pepper puree? Cashew-garlic cream sauce? Nutritional yeast has a c…
  • Check Localharvest.org for a farmers' market nearby if you haven't already. We get most of our produce and nuts at the FM. I do go to Whole Foods or other stores for out-of-season things (like bell peppers, which I have a hard time living without). …
  • Wichten's list is pretty similar to ours - groceries: Kale + at least one other green leafy (chard, spinach or romaine) Tomatoes Zucchini Cucumber Beets Broccoli Red onion Green onion Parsley Basil, cilantro or dill Red bell peppers Jalapenos Ginger…
  • Perhaps check out some raw athletes/fitness buffs for tips? While not raw, Robert Cheeke comes to mind - here are some of his articles http://www.robertcheeke.com/?page=bodybuilder_articles Richard Blackman is a trainer who is a fruitarian - with qu…

  • I'm under the impression that our body wants us to eat until we give it the nutrients it requires at that time. A salad or smoothie has a ton of nutrients, so the body says "thank you, I'm done" after not a lot of volume. But you can eat potato chip…
  • "Part time vegan?" Is that like being "part time pregnant?" But my favorite is "I'm an expert on raw foods because I live in Marin, and there's a raw restaurant here." And someone who lives near an observatory is an astronomer, and someone who lives…
  • Constantin, I appreciate you both for your honesty and for your youth. The comment "Without a good libido, I'm not motivated enough to actively approach new women" is kind of an illustration of what I'd consider a "wrong way" to try to meet someone …
  • I have heard some men say that once they gave up eating the flesh and secretions of animals, they realized they were no longer acting like animals. They stopped looking at women as pieces of flesh and wanting to hump everything in sight. It sounds l…
  • It's not a story exactly, but a while ago there was a thread that pointed out how many people seem to do raw in the morning (smoothie or whatever), raw lunch, and cooked vegan dinner. I've found I'm doing the exact opposite lately -- cooked food in …
  • Hey Kandace! Hope you're feeling great. I just realized we can only post one photo per recipe so I pasted my "before, during, after" photos into one jpg, which ended up being 1 MB. Oy! What is your recommended size, if any?
  • Generally women reach their full height around age 16, but some women say they grew a little after pregnancy. Every body is different, though. If not, well, that's what high heels are for!

  • Hello and welcome!
  • Some past threads - http://goneraw.com/forum/type-1-diabetes-and-raw-foods http://goneraw.com/forum/im-new-and-diabetic-and-interested-other-peoples-experiences
  • I don't sprout, dehydrate, or soak unless a recipe calls for it. The advice above (most of it) is good. If a blender isn't too complicated, smoothies are simple, soups too. Have a salad or a raw pasta if you have more time. Pates are simple too. I m…
  • Most good raw restaurants seem to offer some form of training/internship - which means you work for free and they give you a pretty certifimicate. If I were doing this, I would sign up with Juliano in a heartbeat, then probably Alissa Cohen. My take…

  • Somewhere on this site there's a suggestion for soaking mushrooms (and...I don't know what) and using the soaking liquid in place of Braggs or nama shoyu/soy sauce.
  • Maybe the library has some you can "audit" before you decide to buy? There are probably a lot of clips on YouTube or Yogamates.com that would give you a sample of the routine.

  • There are some cookie recipes out there or maybe pie crusts, but I have never mastered any of them.
  • We've had pad thai with kelp noodles twice this week - first I tried Ani Phyo's recipe And the coconut oil does work well, but I wanted way bigger flavor. The next one I made was much better since I added more nama shoyu, more almond butter, tamari…

  • This site is so loaded with recipes I can't imagine ever being stumped on what to make for dinner! Here are ones tagged "entree" http://goneraw.com/taxonomy/term/30 Our regulars are soups, big salads with a fancy dressing, sushi, wraps, pastas.
  • Hey, think of the vitamin B12 we must get from all the little stowaway critters... Leahceleste, that has to be one of the grossest food stories evah!
  • It's an interesting question - take bananas as a staple crop. The earth's population is about six billion. Let's say everyone eats five bananas a day, so our consumption is 30 billion bananas daily. There aren't very many places on the planet where …
  • Kale, dulse, parsley, cucumber, celery, hemp seed, maybe some avocado.
