• As simply raw said, fresh juices are always best, but there are a few you can store without much problem. Fruit juices tend to stay a lot better than vegetable juices, and generally, the more acidity the fruit has, the longer it will stay. I can usu…

• Also, the post you link to has responses from several people invalidating what “Chef BeLive” says. I don’t know why he’s plugging for Ultimate Raw Foods, but I don’t trust what he says.

• Any type of skin/nail fungus is very hard to get rid of, even on a raw food diet. I’ve had a skin fungus for several years, and going raw has only slowed (not reversed) its growth. The one thing I would suggest is for your dad to eat as few sugars a…
