• Soak nuts in filtered or spring water. Different nuts usually require different soak times, almonds being one of the longest soak time. Usually your easiest way it to just soak them overnight.

• Everyone has different reactions to fasts. I can tell you that it is normal to feel hunger. Usually the hunger goes away by the third day. If you are feeling extremely hungry maybe you are not drinking enough juice. I think you should up your intake…

• I know awsomefoods.com has some good stuff. I have purchased it in whole foods before. The only thing is the shipping is EXTREMELY high.

• Sounds like a good idea but like you said shipping may be a big problem. Obviously if your in the UK shipping to the USA is out of the question. Shipping in and around the UK may work but its prob. going to be expensive. When you factor in the cost …

• Also try mana bread. Its also not raw but it is made from sprouted grains and cooked at very low temp. You can get it in the freezer section of any whole foods and actaully alot of other ordinary grociery stores carry it.
