  • Has anyone read: Gut and Psychology Syndrome, by Dr. Campbell-McBride. She “uncovers the link between a variety of disorders (learning disorders, psychological disorders, eczema, asthma, allergies and more) and the condition of our digestive system.…

  • Interesting thread. So dreasraw in that quote cavesman is implying that allergies are a form of detox? I’ve never thought of them that way. I’ve thought of an allergy as the reaction of an out-of-balance immune system to any number of substances. I’…

  • Thanks to everyone. The support on this site is beyond measure. I have lots of reading to do!

  • z?chen: yes china study was the only book I was able to thoroughly recommend to her as I read it and it made a huge impact on me. I am sending this thread to her in hopes she will be inspired to investigate further. Many thanks for your responses an…

  • Bitt: A book that changed my life and healed my back pain is by John E. Sarno: and is called The Mindbody Prescription: Healing the Body, Healing the Pain. Warner Books. ISBN 0-446-67515-6. The theory of chronic pain (especially back pain) that Dr. …
  • I buy mostly from farmers markets when the produce starts rolling in, but frankly it’s middle of June and Oregon has had a very slow start to summer so Strawberries are all I can get right now. I expect we will have access to much more variety in th…
  • Blackberries, what a great idea. Thanks evergreen.
  • Tzefira, I haven’t done this, but plan to. I was thinking a few TBS of ACV with a soaked date whirled in. Balsamic has that sour/sweet combo flavor so it might work. I’ll let you know if I try it.
  • Meditating, your research is VERY much appreciated. Thank you for the post. Be well!
  • Oh and fyi I took the rest of my sprouted groats and am currently making Terilynn’s oatmeal cookie biscotti. http://www.thedailyrawcafe.com/2007/10/oatmeal-... The batter was scrumptious so I am looking forward to munching the results in the AM.
  • angie, I am lucky to have the organic raw sproutable version at our one and only health food store in town. So they sprouted beautifully. Overnight soak and then 24 hours at a 45 degree angle and they were perfect. So I did use them in a new raw bur…
  • Thanks for responding. Yummy a burger sounds good so maybe that’s the call for my soaked groats. I’m over oatmeal for now. Thanks!
  • Similar issues with my almost three year old. He loved the green smoothie for two weeks then has refused them ever since. He doesn’t even like to use the terms breakfast lunch or dinner so I just tell him I’m going to fix him a snack plate for most …
  • I too have been on a quest for optimum health but most of my nutrition research began three years ago when trying to deal with my sons allergies. I became fascinated with raw food because of the flavors. I started realizing that all cooked food was …
  • Okay I know he takes L-lysine supplements when an outbreak occurs, but I was thinking of a topical treatment on top of that. I’ve heard of tea tree oil so that might be a good one to try and I’ll look into the grape seed extract too. Thanks for feed…
  • Marichiesa, I am the total opposite. Raw garlic is so yummy but seeps through my pores and out from my breath in the worst way. That never happened with cooked. I can’t stop burping if I eat too much raw garlic so I use it in moderation, but I notic…
  • oops sorry, just saw the other thread where you state you are aware of the problems.
  • Hi Ray, thanks so much for continually working to improve the site, I LOVE it! Today I have been experiencing VERY slow load times for links (3 minutes is the average) and also noticed that the little glitch of your post going up twice and sometimes…
  • cavegal: congratulations!!! Yes, the SWF was exactly my thought this morning and it worked. I LOVE the SWF!!!!
  • Oh so basically it’s been since Saturday AM without any action. Any suggestions?
  • okay this makes me so sad to report but I have not had a BM since I started on food. I’ve had chronic constipation my entire life and I was so hoping this MC would help the situation. I’ve had 2 avocados, lots of fiber, and LOTS of liquids including…
  • Amysue, I know what you mean about being mystified but you’ll just listen to what your bod wants and be fine. I will say that exercising after the first solid food did prove to cause some mild cramping (and by exercise I just went on a brisk doggie …
  • Hi everyone. Well I started drinking OJ at 2:00pm on Day 9 (and drank about a quart through the rest of the day). My stomache loved it and I immediately felt I had more energy. It was strange to wake up this morning and not have a BM, I haven’t had …
  • Queenfluff, believe me plenty of detoxing occurred for me even on the jarred stuff so I wouldn’t worry about it. I think it’s more important that you actually like what you are drinking because you have to drink if for so long. Funny cavegal, I didn…
  • Meditating: I am sorry you are feeling so crappy!! You are almost there! I have a ton of mucous excretion today and I was attributing it to the fact that I changed the brand of cayenne pepper we were using. The first stuff was organic but from Wild …
  • Hey everyone. It’s end of day 7 for my and the hubby. We just got back from seeing Sex & City…what a kick, I’m glad they didn’t do much eating in that film, though it showed at the brew & view (it’s the only theater in town) so the smell of …
  • Amysue I totally agree with you about the super smelling power….yuck! I even thought my little two year old’s breath was stinky today and I’ve never thought that in the past :o) Anyways day 6 was rough today….very low energy and lots of cramping and…
  • Meditating…good job keeping track, you rock! And congrats on fitting into those pants! I am actually at the end of day 5 now and I’ll say it has been challenging but rewarding. I’m down 7 pounds and I swear it has all come out of my boobs, bummer! I…
  • Majomi I know what you mean about going to bed early. We are on day three and have felt very tired by 8:00pm. I’m just hoping that mental clarity thing kicks in soon. Sky Princess, congrats…that is awesome I can’t wait to be you lol! One quick quest…
  • We are almost at the end of day 2. I felt nauseated and a bit crampy this morning and kind of low energy all day, but it’s really not that bad. It was just really hard at the birthday BBQ we had to go to today. I kept looking at the big plump strawb…
