  • jessca, I feel your pain as I have had similar experiences while raw. I don’t have much advice to offer, but to take things one day at a time. One meal at a time. One bite at a time. When you begin practicing conscious eating by going raw, it is eas…
  • 1sweetpea – I am part of the Green Room associated with juice feasting & the Rainosheks, where I discovered Lilly’s profile. Lilly is slowly curing her eczema and psoriasis with raw juices and foods. I am pretty sure she has a profile over at GI…
  • btw – if your project turns out to be really convincing, please send me a copy so I can prove to my parents that my way of eating IS healthy. lol
    in Need raw articles Comment by KAIT
  • I went to Google and typed in ‘Google Scholar’ – it brings you to a search engine for published articles. I typed in “raw food diet” and it came up with quite a few results (some anti-raw articles and some pro-raw articles). You would have to search…

  • Sounds delicious, ori!
    in November 811RV Comment by KAIT
  • Thanks for pointing that out SocaL. I didn’t necessarily mean that they SHOULD be consumed on 811, just that they COULD be. I think it would be better for someone to eat onions, peppers, & grapefruit peels every once in a while to keep warm as o…

  • Maybe when you tried 811, you ate too many “cooling” foods and not enough “heaty” foods. I read somewhere that the heatiness and coolness of foods have to do with their ability to generate sensations. “Heaty” foods that could probably be eaten on 81…

  • Thanks! I’m going to try this in a few weeks.
  • Hmm.. no lol! That thread didn’t come up. I saw some posts by a user named David that appeared to be spam about selling water ionizers and then only two other posts mentioning “living water” – I had no idea there was an entire thread about it! Thank…

  • Hey schmoopee – This website might be helpful. It says, “Very few people eat chanterelles raw. They are peppery and upsetting, and they can make some people ill. In any case, their finest flavor can only be appreciated when they are thoroughly cooke…
    in Chanterelles raw? Comment by KAIT
  • Thanks for all the advice! It’s so great and I’m excited to see how my cat responds.
  • That’s strange, newbie. I should note: my cat is an indoor cat. Has never left our house to hunt or anything like that. He has been raised on dry cat mix and hates the moist canned foods.
  • Thank you, Blue_Eyes. It’s worth a shot. My cat has no had any other health problems – I’ve just noticed him limping a bit. I’m still confused on what exactly to serve my cat. You mentioned raw free range hamburger and raw eggs – would I just purcha…
  • Yes, raw meat. Okay, thanks anyway.
  • izzasgma – that’s really interesting. Do you hand the waiter your card as others are ordering or do you give it to them as soon as you are seated?
  • Big green smoothies usually get me pumped up.

  • I found this link – I know it’s a diabetes forum, but it discusses the difference between Carpel Tunnel and poor circulation: Carpel Tunnel/or poor circulation?
    in Carpal Tunnel? Comment by KAIT
  • Have you actually been diagnosed with Carpal Tunnel? If not, it could just be poor circulation. I’ve read a lot of people complaining of cold & tingly hands and feet. Have you ever tried dry brushing? It helps blood flow. Also, do some research …

  • Nobody on the east coast is watching this? What do you think about the woman who said, “I don’t want animals to suffer, but I don’t want human beings to suffer either.”?
  • Keep eating greens, but make sure you’re meeting your caloric needs. Sooner or later you’re body will probably gravitate towards fruits.
  • meloe: My diet is completely based on fruits and vegetables, but the majority of my calories come from fruit. I was never a big fan of nuts or seeds because I don’t digest them well and they tend to weigh me down. I think the best superfoods are fru…
    in Which is best? Comment by KAIT
  • I would say it depends on what you’re looking for: Whole Foods – for nuts, seeds, and superfoods. I’m pretty sure most Whole Foods have a “raw food” section. They have some items that I usually cannot find anywhere else. Trader Joe’s – for produce, …

  • I hope this is true. Especially since I read in the ‘Oil-Pulling’ thread that coconut oil can be swished as an alternative. Killing to birds with one stone?
  • 655+(9.6 x weightkg)+(1.8 x heightcm)-(4.7 x ageyrs) 655+(9.6×68)+(1.8×154.94)-(4.7-66)=1,647.992 1,647.992 is your BMR – you are never suppose to eat lower than your BMR. You are lightly active so to maintain your weight you should eat 1,648×1.2. 1…

  • I haven’t been here in a few days. I guess I feel kind of like el-bo felt before he took a break from the site. I feel like I need to do this on my own for a while. I’ll be writing everyday on my blog (link is on my profile). Good luck everyone! Be …

  • I’ve come to the realization that 811 is so much easier to follow when I stop counting calories and record my ratio. :-) I’ve been doing good. I feel relieved.
    in October 811 Comment by KAIT
  • kennyt – when I get bored of “eating that much of 1 thing”, I usually don’t mono-meal for a couple days (as many days as I need). I make big, mixed fruit salads just to get some variety in my life. I know most 811ers stick to one type of fruit per m…

  • Haha superpapaya & shazzz, I’m glad I’m not alone! I definitely paid the price for my fall off the wagon. I just had the worst intestinal cramps and bathroom problems (sorry TMI). That put me off cooked food for a while. shazzz – I think the cau…
