  • Hi christygirl Great idea with the apples and cranberries. How does it taste before you make the leather?? Wondering if that might be a good “cranberry sauce” recipe with natural sweetening from apples. I can’t imagine eating cranberries without som…
  • Hi waterbaby12347 Let us know how they turn out… have you ever tried the honey or agave with some oil as well. That is my next plan. I Love Dried Cranberries for Raw Scones! QT
  • Hi blueyz, Khaas Ladki & schmoopee! My cranberries came out good but more dry-chewy than I would like and am thinking of adding some oil next time. I do notice on the dried cranberries commercially made there is sugar and oil. Will be starting a…
  • Hi Khaas Ladki and schmoopee! Thanks for the info. Now I just need to decide between honey or agave. Can’t wait to see how they turn out. QT
  • Hi BoyanaGaye I made some salt scrub with coconut oil, celtic sea salt and EO of lavendar. It was pretty amazing… my face did glow! Thanks for the Recipe! QT

  • I’ve been using coconut oil (sparingly) in my hair, letting it sit for an hour or more… then showering. I use Nature Gate’s Herbal Shampoo to get the oil out. I use 1 tsp ACV in 1/3 cup water mixture as a hair rinse, leaving it on and letting it air…

  • Thanks to everyone for all the great ideas and info! Wow! I was also looking for more ways to use coconut oil. I use 1 tbsp coconut oil in my morning smoothie recipes (if you click on my screen name you will go to my profile that has my recipes on i…

  • Hi jellibi I’m glad your cake turned out great… I will keep that one in mind for the future. Just to give a review here of the Decandent Chocolate Cake recipe from Living in the Raw Dessert book: It was awesome… even those who were not on a raw diet…
  • Hi littlegems Thanks for the review of Ani’s Deep Forest Cake… I have her book and will look at that one too. Will be making cake this AM!! “Let Them Eat Cake!” QT
  • Hi jellibi Actually I don’t own the Living in the Raw Desserts by Rose Lee Calabro… I borrowed it from the library… it does have some yummy sounding treats in there. I did make one of the cookie recipes in there… but my own version… I should post it…
  • BTW jellibi “Happy Birthday to YOU… Happy Birthday to YOU!!” [singing in saprono tones] :D QTwho meant to sing that in my first message
  • Hi Tiny1 What are the main ingredients to the black forest cake (just in general terms as I know these recipes are copywrited)? Waiting to Here! QT
  • Hi jellibi I’m glad you asked this as I am in the same boat… need to make a cake for a b-day party 2 days from now… yikes! I was thinking of making the Decadent Chocolate Torte from Living in the Raw Dessert book… has pecans, dates, cacao nibs &…
  • Hi ikn Hmmmm… maybe you need to listen to that feeling deprived? I have not noticed that feeling as I feel so much better it has been worth it for me. Hi shansraw Maybe I need to retry the greens in my smoothie to see if it WILL work for me now… oft…
  • Hi CanarsieBK Like I said you have a good attitude! I agree one has to follow the beat of their own drum, listen to their bodies! Many are not in touch with what IS going on in their own body. When we get that “aha” we really do need to listen to th…
  • Hi eliot Thanks for the links… I will investigate! Are you finding this type of food combining to be easy to follow?? Namaste QT
  • Hi ikn I am in the same dilemma… but I have not as yet eliminated the agave, cacao or the Bragg’s Liquid Aminos… and am not noticing that they lead to craving cooked food. Whether or not those foods will lead to decreased absorption… I can’t answer …
  • Hi CanarsieBK Oh, no problem, my family loves bathroom humor… LOL Yes, I agree there are disagreements about what is raw… a bit frustrating for me because my goal is to be 100% raw… and just when I think I am I see a post about something I am includ…
  • Thank you ikn, This sounds like an awesome alternative! Is there more specific instructions for this?? Waiting with Baited Breath! :D QT
  • Hi again ikn You are welcome, glad to help! I have not been able able to find nama shoyu… and I assume it has wheat that I do NOT tolerate at all. So what other option is there in place of Bragg’s I ask?? Do you or anyone here know if nama shoyu is …
  • Hi slcogliano You are welcome… yes, it took me a while to figure it out. What helps me is to write it down as I am a visual learner… and I also do that to help others figure it out… so glad that it has helped you. Thanks for the comments! :) QT
  • Hi CanarsieBK I agree about following whatever works and I highly recommend food diaries as one of the best ways to determine what is going on with food intolerances. Sounds like you are doing it very carefully… and I often have patients who I wish …
  • Hi ikn I tried to go back and edit so you would know what the catagories meant… but alas… my PC was not cooperating. The book I mentioned by Natalia Rose has these as catagories: Fresh Fruit – by itself, best in morning Non-Starchy Vegetables – with…
  • Hi ikn I would love to know how to search this site to find the post by El-bo… is it possible to search this forum? I don’t see anything under forums that says search. [edit: I figured it out… had to go back to the original forum page to get to sear…
  • Hi JoyceH I have had some of my patients who say they use the NutraTint or NaturaTint (not sure of the exact name) product from Whole Foods Market with good coverage of gray… have had no personal experience with this though. Good luck on that one an…
  • Hi all, Shgadwa, I went to the site you listed just to see what was in the formula… and no ingredients listed… can you tell us what is in this?? Thanks, QT
  • Hello all I have had lots of experience with Rebirthing, am a Loving Relationships Trained (LRT) sponsored Rebirther… and yes, they do say that our cells have memory… Deepak Chopra has talked on this subject in some of his work as well. Breath work …
  • Hi Angie I just reread the Raw Family and I realized that it was Sergei… I am thinking it was because he was under 12 yo… I have read that under 12 yo people can overcome food allergy but not after that age cut off. Perhaps that has nothing to do wi…
  • I searched high & low for the book, Raw Family and finally found it online. Its a small book but I could not put it down, I was amazed. All the things the family members healed and what they went through, the hiking through the mountains in extr…
  • Hi All Okay, this is what I have found out. If you want to be 100% raw then you need teas that are NOT processed above 115-118 degrees. I called Yogi Teas and they told me that all the ingredients of their teas are dried without heat. Yay! I add wat…
