• Tea tree oil is a fair bug repellent. As far as sunscreen goes I like hats, scarves and long sleeved shirts. I am not sure if the ingredients in commercial sunscreens are toxic or not so I won't use them.

• If your pee is pink after eating beets, it's probably beets. Try cutting out beets, see if it goes, the put them back and see if it turns pink again. I love beets!

• I am still doing green smoothies every day. I used to drink one at night but now I drink them in the morning. It's not about the taste for me, I used to drink vodka straight, I can drink anything! However, lately, I just haven't been enthused over t…

• It depends on the store, some have reduced produce, some don't. I see it at the organic supermarket sometimes, reduced organic. It's usually pretty far gone. I have always been a freegan so I love cheap or free food. One cashier at Whole Foods used …

• Eat fruit more and you will start to like more veges in time. When I was young I HATED veges! If my mother could see me now she would not believe I am a raw vegan who eats mostly raw veges! I still won't touch raw tomatoes or raw okra. Blech. My BF,…

• lol, angie, it's just me, i guess. I can't handle all that dense protein. Just another example of how we are all different and have to listen to our own bodies to learn how to eat. On a sadder note, an acquaintance of mine is going into rehab for dr…

  in Calorie Count of Common Raw Foods Comment by zucchini breath
• It is hard to find raw calorie counts, isn't it? I haven't tried the cron-o-meter yet. 200 cals isn't very much but a handful of nuts a day should be enough for anyone, IMO. It's enough for me, anyway. I prefer seeds :) but still, more than half a c…

• Oh, one other thing. If my hair gets greasy, and it does every three weeks or so, I grab a jar and put a 1/4 cup baking soda in it and take it to the shower with me. When my hair is wet, I add water to the BS, about a quart, and pour that on my head…

• In my opinion, make up is toxic and addictive. It's expensive and useless. It's a waste of time, money and resources. It's an unnecessary cause of stress. You are beautiful just the way you are and you don't need any enhancing, even if you have a sp…
