• Is ground flax and flax meal the same? I have two recipes I want to try and one calls for ground, the other for meal - could I just buy it already ground down??

• I love steam rooms and saunas! I usually stay in for 20-30 mins and drink a lot of water whilst I'm in there. I try to steam my face once a week to open my pores, too.

• Yes! I never hear of raw foodies mentioning potatoes so this is great! Must have missed the recipe on the site : )

  in Who's got the top beauty tip? Comment by GlitterGirl
• I've wanted to try coconut oil for awhile but would like everyone's advice on a brand... I read that coconut "butter" was good for the skin but when I tried using it, it didn't really melt well on my skin and kind of felt odd. Do you guys use actual…

• The only natural thing I've heard of is those poking contraptions that you roll over your face to rebuild the tissue... I haven't tried it so I don't know if it works personally but you can find videos on YouTube about them. Other than that I've see…

• I'm not 100% raw but I like to eat lots and lots of greens! They're easy and can be filling. Plain fruit is easy but a bit sugary to have all the time in my opinion. I'm also lucky enough to live in an area that sells raw flax crackers and stuff lik…

• I sprouted my quinoa from the directions on the SproutPeople's site...Just for a day or two, they said the longer you sprout the softer it gets but less time it lasts once you're done sprouting - maybe I'll just sprout it longer next time? I was thi…

• Wow, thanks for the info you guys! I'm surprised to hear those things about Cafe Gratitude - I bought one of their cooks books and it was all about the raw except for some grains and almonds (you can't get those raw anymore can you?) There menu/cook…

  in Easy to clean juicer? Comment by GlitterGirl
• I have the Omega 8005 and it's VERY easy to clean. There's no blades to tediously try and get pulp out (like with the Champion juicer, which by all means is still a good juicer). In fact, if I juice and clean it right away all I really need to do is…

  in Easy to clean juicer? Comment by GlitterGirl
• I did a lot of research before buying a juicer and, no matter what brand you get, you have to get a masticating juicer! The nutrition is better, the juice more bioavailable and less oxidized and heated... I have an Omega 8005 and I LOVE it! I've als…

  in Searching for the Perfect Juice Extractor Comment by GlitterGirl
• I use a little spray that has a bunch of essential oils, witch hazel, grain alcohol, and some other plant extracts. You can mix your own or buy a premixed one (Burt's Bees, Common Sense, V'Tae are nice). You'll still sweat but, if you get the good s…

• Always juice some greens! You can easily mask the green taste with some apple juice and ginger ; ) One tip, try to drink the juice asap after juicing it. Once you juice it it starts to lose it's goodness. I've heard that you should drink it within 4…

  in new to raw.. questions about juicing! Comment by GlitterGirl
• As I recall, wheatgrass can make you sick if it's not in tiptop shape (that is, super clean and grown in the proper environment). If you are juicing your own wheatgrass you may want to look in to that as your culprit. I got sick from wheatgrass once…

• I used to wax my legs but I had too many ingrown hairs so now I just shave. I shave my bikini area and still wax my underarm hair every so often and, I know it sounds weird, but I pluck in between waxings. I've had electrolysis on my belly button ar…

  in Steaming Broccoli?? Comment by GlitterGirl
• Man! I totally missed out - I should have checked the site sooner : ( Next time! Joannabanana - I feel ya - You can feed the pulp to your animals, compost it, toss it in your yard for the birds/flowers/earth : )

• Capsasum oil if you can find it (or distill it!) will make your lips swell up... and be painfully sore. But, hey, confident or not, everyone has something they want to change if they can - I feel ya : )

• Green juice, two salads with mixed greens, mixed veggies, flax crackers with avocado, sprouts, lime juice, flax oil, sea salt, and a raw 14 grain cookie! Not as one meal but throughout the day : )

• The only thing I've ever heard of to get rid of pock marks is laser treatments... Not very "natural" but at least your not infesting your body with chemicals ; ) You may want to check out a laser called Fraxel. I'm having these treatments done right…

  in acne scars, how can I heal them? Comment by GlitterGirl
• I don't know how natural you want to go with this but if you get on Accutane, your acne will go away. It's a hard core medication and it's not natural or good for you but it works. It's 4-6 month medication and you have to get blood tests and see yo…

• I have to say that I'm not a fan of the "cup" devices. Not to get in to too much detail but, when I tried it, it made me uneasy because it leaked before and felt like it would leak again - that just made me nervous while I was wearing it. Plus I tho…
