  • If its a weight lifting session then always a raw protein powder. It was the only way to help me properly repair like when i was on a SAD diet.  
  • They are considered a legume, as evaAfrica explained there high in protein, have a decent carbohydrate content aswell as being rich in fibre.  
  • Most of the research is easily discredited and very poorly designed. Another thing we cant always take for gospel that research done on mice will effect humans in the same way. Soya has alot of bad propaganda behind it, once that sets in you get a …

  • Nice one England has a much wider range of places than up here. You just soak the dulse in luke warm water for 15 minutes then its good to go:). I mix it in with a miso soup though as i dont like eating them on there own.

  • Dulse is nice its not got a strong flavour at all, and melts in the mouth easy. Im not fond of wakame as it has a richer taste, takes forever to chew and is very slimy lol. Sea spaghetti is nice need to try more of that and sea lettuce is ok.

  • Ive seen the brand you mentioned but never tried it, think ill give it a miss lol. They eat so many different types of seaweed such as wakame, dulse etc, but nori is one of the main ones due to sushi.

  • The parasite theory is very overblown in my opinion along with candida. They do happen but not to the extent these sites selling there products make out. These sites often attribute every disease to different parasites(clarks theory which has been p…
  • Not something to be taken unless you need it for some sort of infection etc. It kills off the gut flora in a similar way that anti-biotics do, so definitely not something you want to take long term or for unless you have a need for it. It is common…

  • Hey aijazkhan81, as you likely already know if your looking to gain weight your going to need to take in an excess of calories. Raw might not be an easy way to do that, not that im trying to put you off the idea. The most nutrient dense foods on raw…

  • Yeah kale chips are Rawesome ambergirl, so many different flavors you can experiment with also, i get mines made by a friend as a i dont have a dehydrator at the current time. After spending 400 pound + on a vitamix im going to be poor for a while l…

    in MSM? Comment by powerlifer
  • I love wheatgrass also, for some reason i get better results with wheatgrass powder though. But i still drink it fresh from time to time.  
  • Spirulina like anything else can go bad, especially if subjected to heat etc. It does smell horrible but if it smells really bad to of concern id say bin it. http://www.juicingforum.co.uk
  • Bee pollen is an amazing superfood. One of its best benefits is for nourishing the endocrine system, the adrenal glands in particular through its rich vitamin B5 content. So if you suffer from adrenal fatigue its one of the best supplements to take.…

  • So far ive only used the vitamix TNC, only got it recently but its worth the money.

  • we sell spirulina and other superfood powders at our store.  
  • If i remember rightly pure radiance contains amla berry, acerola, rose hips etc also.

  • Any reason you cook your miso soups so long Zenforest, one of the great benefits of miso is that its fermented and supplies good bacteria but only if not overcooked. Still great for you though.
