  • I think a grain-free or low-grain diet is best. Wild rice and buckwheat are fruits - enjoy that sprouted. Quinoa sprouted is pretty healthy.
  • I think your upbeat attitude is 75% of the struggle. Keep going with what you feel comfortable with. :)
  • I was going to say as well that I think your diet could be better. Include dark greens, such as kale, spinach, collards, chard; include sprouts every day; include a Brazil nut or some source of selenium; change up the walnut snacks with almonds, pum…
  • I think it might help your social life a bit if you eased up on thinking you were "enlightened" and instead understood that YOU make a choice, others make a choice, and it doesn't have to be the same. (Yes, when veganism is being discussed as oppose…
  • And another thing is that these posts and threads make it seem like we as raw foodists are all about what we don't eat. I don't know about you, but I spend 99% of my food thoughts on what I *do* eat, and it's delicious!
  • I understand people wanting to get info out there if there's a product that claims to be raw and isn't. However, we seem to have a new agave thread every day and it's annoying, and I have yet to see evidence that the raw agave I buy is NOT raw and/o…
  • Oh, I wanted to add that there's at least 4 fair-trade coffee shops within walking distance of my apartment. Fair-trade/organic is more popular right here than Starbucks, which is really cool. Not that it helps us raw foodies out much, but just sayi…
  • I don't like how coffee or espresso make my pee smell! Plus I like lattes, and soymilk is heated, so that's two non-raw items, one with more calories. So when I'm 99% raw, I just do tea. I've had two ocassions since being raw where my stomach was up…
  • Yeah, people on 80/10/10 would not eat garlic or cumin, etc. I don't like to eat dressings but will mix up greens with avocado, tomato, and basil. It becomes creamy if ripe.
  • i think it's usually the high-fat raw fooders who have these problems.
  • Awwe, I feel bad for you!! 100 lb. seems really light for your height. I could see a slim/thin 5'2 person being 100! I have no offers of help, though. Just hugs.
  • I wasn't upset about anything, and yes, I found it entertaining, to say the least. I still don't get why someone would care why a person wears a green shirt or green eyeliner, but whatever - if it's a problem for THEM, it's a problem for THEM, not M…

  • I didn't ask you what you thought of me or my make-up wearing habits. Nor did anyone else. It's fine to have your opinion on it, but don't forget that every person is NOT YOU. (I'm glad for that!)

  • Zucchini Breath, it seems the way you talk, that you think everyone's experiences are going to be the same as yours, or everyone's thoughts are giong to be similar to yours. Just because you live your life (or lived past tense) to impress others doe…

  • Not to mention the sunscreen benefit of certain "makeups" and moisturizers.

  • Zucchini wrote, "Are we still so into impressing men that we have to paint our lips and cheeks so they resemble a "heat"?" I absolutely disagree with any heterosexual-biased and/or gender-biased point of view, that a woman's actions would be done fo…

  • I don't know anyone who wears makeup to hide anything. I wear it to accentuate my beauty, and it's fun for me to put on! It's for me, not for anyone else, so anyone's comments about it wouldn't really matter. Others may feel differently, of course.

  • Mine is 9, other. I use nutritional yeast on occasion to make otherwise raw foods for other people, but I don't eat nutritional yeast daily or weekly or monthly for myself. I guess the reason is the taste of the nutritional yeast, that I think these…
  • I didn't mean for it to seem like I was picking on anyone - not at all. :)
  • To further illustrate what I mean, when people ask me why I'm raw and such, I tell them that *I* feel better eating raw and that I feel I have increased energy and that my skin looks better. I don't usually say anything about enzymes and such, becau…
  • Pixx, I'm not "hung up" on semantics, but I'm aware that other people are. If we as raw foodists make claims that are not backed up, people do judge. I have vegan friends who look at raw foodists' claims and judge. So yes, I try to be specific when …
  • Yeah, it's kind of like when vegetarians say they are "saving animals." Uh, no, we just don't kill them (assuming the vegetarian is a real vegan). That's not saving them. To say we're saving them is to infer that we are supposed to be killing (even …
  • That's what I'm saying; I doubt the raw diet is "helping" you so much as the cooked food and animal products CAUSE HARM/DEGENERATE.
  • I wouldn't say raw "healed" anything so much as what you were eating before CAUSED degeneration faster than a healthy diet would have.
  • I love the 30 bananas a day forum! Go there. :)
  • being hydrated should help, whether you're drinking green tea or water.

  • I've gone four times already today (not in a bad way) and I ate no greens yesterday. Greens are not key.

  • What fruits and veggies and in what amounts please?

  • teff is a grain.

  • The raw tofu recipes are in Matthew Kenney's books. You need cashews and Irish moss.
