  • hmmm, I had acid reflux really bad before raw and it took about 30 to get rid of it but I haven’t had a flair since then(about a month and a half ago or so). Keep up and the acid will keep down! I think mine healed completely because I can eat thing…

  • DRINK WATER!!!! For me that helped sooo much. Also if you just eat tons of greens and watery fruit that helps

  • that article is cute. My Mom told me when I was a kid that cats and dogs eat grass because it gives them the vitamins and minerals they don’t get from other things. So I just assumed that was true. But the amount of things consumed by my dog as I “u…
  • switching things up for a second, I don’t have a cat anymore but I do have a little cocker spaniel. I give her normal dog food (sensitive stomach type though) but she adores any fruit or veggie I drop as I cook. Her favorite is the white part of let…
  • I just get the worst headaches with sugar. It’s so easy not to indulge when you know the next to days will be spent in a hazy, miserable hell. I can imagine gaining weight on avocados though. ha. Is it the nuts and stuff that make you gain weight? O…
  • you gained weight with raw dessert!? I didn’t know that was possible. I never crave any sweets since I eat fruit regularly.
  • I wish I lived somewhere that I could have an avocado tree. I could live on them. If I wasn’t paying $1.69 a piece I’d have many many more.
  • I agree with ambiguous. If you can’t get enough things like zinc eating raw only include something that will help or take supplements. The point of going raw is to be the healthiest you can be(at least for me) and if you’re hurting yourself it’s poi…
  • I definitely think that greens are incredibly important since they contain the highest levels of zinc, calcium, potassium and magnesium of any raw foods. It’s easy to incorporate them into things like smoothies where you can’t really taste them(in c…
  • That’s so true thecaveman! I totally enjoy just fruit as meals during work. I actually don’t even call them meals because it’s whenever I’m hungry and so not extremely structured. Occasionally I’ll want something else but I just give myself the vari…
  • gordienali-Zoe makes a great point about protein. It is in everything and you don’t need meat or nuts to get enough. I just include greens in at least something each day whether it’s a handful of spinach in a smoothie or a salad. When I started raw …
  • yeah, I’m allergic and have been my whole life. It took years of migraine headaches before finally an eye doctor suggested getting off dairy and it worked like a dream.
  • I’m sorry but that is gross. I”m not saying it’s not gross to take it from a cow. But I will NEVER eat ice cream made out of breast milk. It’s not even a remote option
  • haha Zoe, great line. I’m beginning to see that milk is really quite awful with humans. Of course I can’t stand it since I’m allergic but now that I’m raw I see the world from the outside and can see how certain foods are messing with people. Dairy …
  • haha hey domesticgoddess, people are pretty against all kinds of milk and I don’t drink it because I’m lactose intolerant but I feel that of all the crap out there that people eat, raw milk is definitely the lesser of the evils. I mean, at least it’…
  • yeah, cows and goats are definitely far easier to milk that’s for sure. They’re also useful for other things like meat and that probably had something to do with choosing them.
  • oh my goodness dreasraw! How eloquent! The humble servant analogy is sooo true. People make things complicated but it’s so rewarding to us to treat our servant well because we begin to feel well. thecaveman,I had an opposite childhood experience….I …
  • Wow! I respect your logic most definitely. I totally agree that milk is most likely not the best thing out there for us humans. But it IS far more natural than a coke. Anyway, of course as a child I was told that milk was good for you and would give…
  • Melaverde-that makes perfect sense. But now that it’s already happened how can it be fixed? I mean, seriously, I’ve totally changed my husbands diet since we were married and I have a feeling that nothing I do will change the fact that he is extreme…
  • thecavesman-what I mean by killing is ending life. As soon as you pick a mango and sink your teeth into it is no longer living. You may not be killing the plant but the thing that you pick is dead now. Honey is not alive and neither is milk. It can’…
  • I have to totally agree with dorian don’t on this. My husband was born with a severe and nearly deadly allergy to nuts and many animals as well as avocados. He was allergic from the womb and still is. He’s not detoxing. Although I had seasonal aller…
  • sheesh guys, I feel bombarded. I don’t care for milk and to be quite honest it always gave me trouble. However, because of all the points you guys brought up I feel inclined to say that there are benefits to milk. Of course we all know it’s rich in …
  • sorry, I guess we posted at the same time and yours got up there first. Very interesting reasoning. I mean, I’m a raw vegan but it’s only because of health issues. I just was curious why it’s such a big deal if it’s raw.
  • How do you make raw goat yogurt?! I’d looove to be able to do that. I don’t care if it’s like Kefir! I’m wondering why everyone is raw vegan. I hear the term “raw foodist” alot and they still say things like “no milk chia latte!” and stuff like that…
  • Here’s a low down about herbs if you’re interested in growing them(my family’s business is herbs pantrygardenherbs.com(not organic)). Main point as germin8 said is definitely don’t water them to much. Wait for them to get a bit wilty first. They get…
  • My Mom didn’t know everything either but she allowed us to pursue things that we loved and kept us focused. I always enjoyed learning because of the connotation I have from my childhood. My sister is currently pursuing her masters so no one can say …

  • bbcc33-All my meals are fairly simple. I do make raw bread though and that does take a dehydrator so eventually you may want to get one. amysue! I read your profile and I have to say I’m impressed by you! I was homeschooled (family of seven kids tho…

  • Amen Timothy. This is such a great discussion. Orthorexia is definitely a big deal. I think it’s safe to say that any over obsession in any area of diet is dangerous. I have never had a problem with an eating disorder but there have been so many mom…
  • carmentina! I guess we posted at the same time. I totally agree with that! Our processed food is the bane of the age. Raw food may be the best but cooked food isn’t the worst for sure.
  • yeah, I took a few tests to see what metobolic type I am and I actually have deficiencies directly related to enzymes so I need alot more than some people. That may be why I immediately felt a complete change when I went raw. I didn’t have a painful…
