  • Pam I will look up the triblest on the web now…don’t know if they sell them in Ausralia. But I have been toying with the idea of travelling with my Bamix which may be the same kind of thing – a very strong kitchen wand that additionally plunges into…

  • I love your travel plans Joyce – destinations and policy both sound great. What you say indicates real good sense.. and I think you are right about the body having the innate intelligence to come back to its ‘best’ level if given the opportunity. In…

  • Joyce, I’m not a musician but what you describe sounds truly amazing and as if it nourished you on the deepest level in terms of both creativity and community. If you’re going to live longer (subjectively or otherwise) you may as well live richly s…

  • So interesting! Lovefoodlaughter I believe you are on the nail about ‘less is more’..... I read ayurvedics say it’s better not to eat when processing a lot of other stuff – be it geographical, physical or emotional. (I guess travel can be all 3?) …

  • Thanks mmtol :) elizabethh I grabbed my book “The Barf Diet” by Dr Ian Billinghurst to confirm about the cellulose, and what it really says is the fruit and veg should be pulped to mimic the gut contents of prey…..... so much for the cellulose theor…
  • My beautiful golden retriever died, aged 7, from cancer and when I got my two standard poodle cross pups three years back I was determined they would have the chance to live long, healthy lives. It was them that got ME started on raw! (I used to th…
  • I am from Western Australia and Perth is great. Lots of organic produce available, farmer’s markets and plenty of imported extras from the US etc where local supply doesn’t meed the demand. Tropical Queensland is great too ( although the long term r…
  • Thank Raw_Chocoholic I just read this and saved it for future reference. The author,Jackie French is an Australian permaculturist. Now I am inspired to do some gardening….. and also wondering if it is possible to be a city-living raw foodist with a …
  • I just posted a separate forum question today on whether or not to invest in a Vitamix…... Now I have the chance to make a more informed choice and I appreciate all the information. Thank you Shaker et al :) (I had been getting by quite well with…
  • hmmmm:) So much for my previous post! I have been going downhill so fast since that meal that it’s scarey. My immune system is less resilient than I thought. It’s back to the salads only when I eat out for a long while for now because clearly there …
  • Hmm..interesting topic and relevant to my ‘right now’. I have just popped some digestive enzymes after going out for a celebration dinner to a fine restaurant and deciding to completely spit the ‘raw dummy’.... By that I mean I consciously decided …
