  • Joyce, I’ve had that sick feeling from eating too much heavy raw food, before – particularly if I overindulge on certain nuts or if I try to push the dehydrated foods. I find I do better eating mostly fresh, high-moisture raw, with any fats coming i…

  • I know this is a bit of a controversial topic because so many people are like, “duh! You’re supposed to do 100% raw, silly!” – but it’s that obsession with percentages that scared me. And I HAVE read 12 Steps to Raw. In fact, I was reading it, about…

  • Thanks, guys! I’m excited about it. A few weeks ago we started playing around with raw foods, with the result that I’ve eaten a lot more raw. One of my friends, who hasn’t seen me in months, saw me at the grocer’s and commented on how much healthier…

    in Is Yeast Raw? Comment by poemomm
