  • Mangoes mangoes mangoes. So delicious. I do often just bite into them after peeling. Even though it’s messy it’s so incredibly delicious that I don’t care.
  • Caleb, there’s your cost….organic. I buy organic when I can which isn’t often but all summer and so far this fall my fruit is pretty much straight from the tree or bush, or vine. Worms and everything! No chemicals. When I do have to go back to store…
  • yes I learned that going to the store only twice a month has helped a great deal not only to keep track of the cost but also to buy the exact amounts I need. I plan on going to the health store once a month now. I’m keeping a tally on this months fo…
  • Holy Moly! That’s very different from mine. Breakfast Green Smoothie(Under $3) Ingredients 1 banana 2 apples handful of greens few berries 1 tblsp coconut oil SNACK banana LUNCH 2 apples DINNER cabbage salad with dressing carrots with spring onion s…
  • I am sooo jealous ikn. We spend nearly that in one week! That’s only for two!
  • Angie- haha, well I’m working on getting more calories in. I do buy olive oil but I get a pretty big thing of it and it lasts many months as well as grains but they’re so ridiculously cheap and I use them so rarely I don’t really count them in. I ea…
  • yeah! Think about how much we save on medical bills! Now that I think about it I went to the doctor at least four or five times a year previous to raw for the health issues. That adds up even if you have insurance. Also I used to take four advil and…
  • hmm, well I bet your prices are about the same as here then because I know during the worst gas price time this summer Missouri was at the lowest price. Yeah, I’d recommend less nuts. They’re expensive and often not raw apparently. I think the longe…
  • hmmm, where do you live? I’m in the midwest and so getting all the cool raw stuff is rough so I eat really simply. My husband is not raw so I buy mine and his and our budget is around $350 to $400 a month. I mostly get veggies and fruit though. Mayb…
  • dodo-Yes! I’m soooo glad they aren’t cancerous! Every time I saw your profile pic I thought about it and got all worried for you. I hope you’re feeling fabulous and celebrating!
  • yeah spectrum sells that exact same oil for food. I wonder if the price is different. Anyway, that’ll work great for you skin.
  • Ruby-what brand did you get? There are some that package the same thing(food grade) into a jar for the food section and a tub for the skin care section and they are actually the same thing but it’s simply easier to use it out of the tub. Stephanie-I…
  • lzhpt-so you’re saying to eat the refined coconut oil? That goes against everything I’ve read. Unrefined is how it is inside the coconut meat so it can’t possible be worse for you than refined.
  • lzhpt-coconut oil only affects cholesteral if it is not the unrefined, virgin, cold pressed version. I use coconut oil in my smoothies(at least a tablespoon) as well as a moisturizer for my whole body including face. It’s been magical and I adore it…
  • simplyraw-I agree, we shouldn’t be driven by fear and we HAVE GOT to stop the consuming and addiction to excess and possessions. It’s ridiculous. Although it’s a great idea to be prepared.
  • yeah it does suck alot. I’m hoping my job is alright. But if it isn’t I know that I’ll survive. It’s an extremely tough situation but it needs to happen. It’s common sense to be wise with money and if our country as a whole isn’t wise they need to l…
  • It’s funny, Caleb, I didn’t think about this before since we bought our car right before the gas prices when haywire this summer but we weren’t given as good a rate as we had hoped and we have good credit and own a house. I was surprised then but no…
  • I’m soooooo glad this got rejected. It’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve heard of. Why give these banks and corporations another chance to screw things up? I think it’s important for our country to go through an economic crisis simply to learn how to…
  • well for me it’s simply because I don’t care for nuts. I still eat seeds though. Nuts are pretty rich and once you’ve been raw for a while and your body adjusts to it you start cutting out things you’re sensitive to. I’m sensitive to nuts so I don’t…
  • rubylaine-I am still oil pulling. I’ve been doing it for 21 days. I’m still seeing results and I know that it’s preventing things. I still think it’s gross and I still don’t like doing it but I’m keeping it up anyway. haha. Just to be healthy and ha…
  • rishi! Thank you for that information.
  • yeah from what I’ve heard sunflower seed oil was less flavorful. I HATE the taste of sesame. ha. But I’m enduring!
  • well the results only last while you’re doing it. So as long as you want the results I guess. I’m really surprised by my skin detox. So I’m going to continue to see what it looks like after. My teeth feel really good and they’re whiter so who knows,…
  • treeoflife-I think you’d be a great candidate for oil pulling. It totally took care of my sensitive gums right away. It IS really gross but I continue to see results and it does get easier the longer I do it. I still wake up in the morning and think…
  • yeah, I do it for twenty minutes. It is really long but it only is gross for the first few minutes. You get used to it. It’s a face work out for sure!
  • Just want to give a progress report real quick. I’ve been doing oil pulling for 8 days now. Here is what I have seen. A.a small sore I’ve had for three years….gone after day 2 B. tender gums around my back molars….gone after 4 days C. noticeable whi…
  • springleaf, I did read the entire clinical trial paper but I can’t find it at the moment(I’m at work). It was pretty interesting. I bought sesame seed oil last night and did my first try this morning. I’ll keep you all posted on my progress. I took …
  • thank you guys! I think I’ll get some sesame oil after work today and give it a whirl….or a swish. ha. I’m very curious about it and I actually read the transcript of a clinical trial they did and they said besides being 6 times more cost effective …
  • after four weeks of raw I was free of chronic headaches, acid reflux, insomnia and all my digestive problems. Amazing! I’m so happy to hear you’re feeling better! That’s what is so exciting about raw food. The success stories never stop rolling in.
  • I’m intrigued by your ideology jkd. I have often thought about tribal communities and how well they work. However, there is often alot of warfare with tribes since they’re smaller than countries. With our populated world as big as it is can it be re…
