• You've absolutely got it right. It's fruit with greens and some people even add veggies. You don't taste the greens at all if you use something like spinach which is a really really powerful green. An easy way to start with green smoothies is to mak…

• emtpmom-I put the baking soda in some water and find it's far easier to work it in well with dry hair before my shower because once my hair is when I don't know where the baking soda has been or not. It's easier for me to be thorough.

• Seriously, stop shampooing. It could be the best thing you've ever done! I finally was able to do it and now if my hair gets greasy I just make a little mixture of baking soda and water and work it into my hair when it's dry. I work it in really goo…

• well you're gonna gain SOME back because you'll be eating instead of not eat....just the food in your intestines weighs SOMETHING. However, I think if you're strict about your lifestyle after a fast then you can definitely keep the weight off. Just …

• Ha I'm doing the Master Cleanse right now and am astounded at how much smaller I am(how my clothes fit, etc) but haven't lost a single pound! I'm on day 4! I'm not doing it for weight loss but was really surprised by this.

• I used to LOVE naked juices before raw. I'm sure they're still good I mean, they're entirely fruit so nothing bad there but I'm pretty certain they aren't fresh. However, as an alternative to pretty much anything else but your own smoothie I'd say y…

• well, it wouldn't be a mono meal with a salad....since mono means one. That might still be good food combining though. I'm not sure. I haven't really studied food combining much. I just know how I feel when I eat certain things.

  in Monomeals Comment by troublesjustabubble
• Okay, firstly, the philosophy of mono meals is that you eat one type of food and then wait until it's digested to eat another type of food. That is how you rid yourself of bloating because that one type of fruit or whatever will all digest at the sa…

  in Monomeals Comment by troublesjustabubble
• I mono meal most of the time. Just because it's simpler and I enjoy it. I'm sure I feel better too but it's just the natural thing to do for me. Like yesterday for dinner I just ate mangoes! Today I'll be eating bananas and who knows this evening! I…

  in Craving Salt Comment by troublesjustabubble
• hmm, I like having a small amount of sea salt in my diet. I enjoy the minerals and the flavor. I only use it when I make pates(VERY rare) but if I crave salt that's what I do and I don't have the craving for a long time. A craving sometimes means yo…

  in Is wine allowed on a raw foods diet? Comment by troublesjustabubble
• I drink wine on occasion and really enjoy it. It's alcohol, sure, but as a raw foodist it's a nice way to very rarely 'fit in' with your peers without breaking your lifestyle rules...... It's not like I want to fit in all the time but every once in …
