  • I found when I started eating raw desserts with agave or maple syrup (ok - not raw) or honey, I began craving that sweetness and I would binge like I did on a SAD diet when I decided a piece of cake was ok. I have found that substituting with banana…

  • I have had LOADS of blood taken as my husband and I are on a "baby journey" as well. I wish you the best of luck....I know how it goes. I always drink an extra litre of water the day BEFORE I have to have blood drawn or the day before I give blood. …
  • Hey there. Though I have been using mostly raw and lots of green smoothies to clear my acne I thought I would give you this info as well. I get infused oils and tinctures from a great farm in Maine called Blessed Maine Herbs. The website is http://b…

  • What do you have at the Farmer’s Market in in Nov? Maybe you could revamp one of the tibuli (have NO idea how to spell that!) recipes that use winter squash or cauliflower in place of the pasta? I like the ratatouille idea too!

  • I love using lemon balm. Tried adding basil to the lemon balm a few times this summer and found it quite nice. Would love some other recepies for tea using basil! Mint is out of control in my garden so I do use a lot of that.

  • I make my own sun teas with fresh herbs from my window garden. In the morning I pick and crush the herbs, add water and set in the window. By the time I get home I have nice warm fresh tea! Don’t think the water can get over 105 by doing this, thoug…

  • Thank you! I feel like I am doing an ok job now. I have been doing a huge green smoothie/soup in the evenings and the past two nights have added flax oil to them. Forgive my ignorance, but what is psyllium husk? And where can I get an enema bag? I k…
