  • Hi everyone, Please take note – I completely forgot to post the 9lbs of organic, raw almonds that I have for sale! They were purchased from the Santa Cruz, California farmers market while I was living there from October to May, and like the other nu…

  • Hi Amber, Thanks for your interest. The pistachio nuts are unshelled, but cracked and the nut itself is easily removed. Another member expressed an interest in the 2lbs of pistachios that are left, but she has yet to confirm. The 3lbs of chia seeds …

  • Germin8 – My plan is pretty loose. I’m meeting a friend in Uttaranchal for a month of hiking soon after I arrive, and will probably hang around there until it gets too cold – sometime around the middle of October, and then slowly start making my way…
  • El-bo, That’s good advice, about keeping food combining in mind – rice and dhal has never sat in my stomach well, and often kept me from getting to my yoga mat in the evenings. I also thought about eating only one meal a day during retreat times, es…
  • Thank you everyone for such encouraging replies. I am very fortunate to be taking this trip, and I do know that my body and mind will accomodate the foods I’m consuming. Probably after a week or so of nothing but cooked food, I’ll feel normal again …
  • Slosh-uh, I’m working at the Land of Medicine Buddha, which is just outside Santa Cruz, near Soquel Village. You should come check it out here too, if you’re coming south. Best, -Dave:)

  • Just had to chime in on this one. I work and live at a Buddhist retreat center in central California, which serves wonderfully delicious, local, organic, vegetarian (mostly vegan) cuisine, buffet style, three times a day at no real cost of mine. Tha…

  • Sounds wonderful Chilove. Hawaii has been calling me lately – mostly in regards to growing much of my own food and feasting on the wonderful tropical fruits. I can’t imagine having my own banana trees, and that’s just the beginning! Before it’s all …
  • Thanks for all the input guys – Looks like we’re all having similar troubles figuring this out. I had thought about purchasing a nut butter machine myself, but was turned off by the cost. Do you think all the commercial manufacturers are using nut b…
  • I’ve actually been having the same problem over the last couple of days, and my pain is concentrated under the right rib only – i.e. where the liver is located. Could it be that I need a flush? I’ve also been feeling pretty mediocre this last week (…
  • Wow, thanks everyone for all of the suggestions. And thank you NorthernLights for the wonderful recipe – I’m a recovering popcorn addict myself, and I’m off to buy a big bag of pumpkin seeds this evening, so that will definitely hit the spot. I have…
  • Arnold at Arnolds Way is a really nice guy, and a chat with he and his staff is worth the visit alone They’ll make you feel welcome. The place has a nice homey feel to it, which I find very conducive to lounging around. Definitely recommended. Redho…
  • I’ve really been having some trouble sleeping lately. It seems to be coinciding directly with my most severe bout of detoxification. Others have reported similar experiences. But, in general, the consensus seems to be that the longer you’re raw, the…

  • I have been eating a TON of oranges lately, and I don’t recall having the itchy rashes before consuming them. I’ll cut back on the citrus over the next week, and see how things go. Thanks guys! -Dave:)
  • I’m having the same problem (itchy rashes that could be eczema), and some minor breakouts on my face that just won’t go away (been raw for 1.5 to 2 months now). I seem to be having more ‘detox’ symptoms lately, with minor headaches and what not, so …
  • Northern Lights and Eshne, I may try to start again today, depending on how I’m feeling. I’m drinking a Gogi berry, orange, collard smoothie now, so I may as well keep it up. I can’t go back to cooked food this time around (have a good strategy invo…
  • Hey Nezumi, Congrats on making it as far as you did. It sounds like you and I came to the same realization at different times during this fast. Of course, I’ve changed my mind yet again (after feeling crappy on cooked vegan food for three days), and…
  • Good to see that everyone is still going. Keep it up guys! Congratulations on making it thus far :) -dave:)
  • Hi everyone, I’m out – I apologize! Erggghh, I do realize that this was only day 1, but I’ve made a major decision tonight regarding how I’m going to go about my raw food eating, which entails quite a large change (mentally anyway). It just so happe…
  • The list is growing – Awesome, and welcome Shane. I find that supplementing the fresh fruit really helps out for those times that you want to ‘chew.’ Although today, I ate a few too many bananas and am now living on the down side of the sugar high. …
  • Hey guys, Good to know we’re still all in this together. So far today, I’ve had two quarts and have been nibbling on some sweet fruit (not my intention, but thats just how it happened). I plan to cut back on the fruit nibbling over the next couple o…
  • Thanks for the input Kristen. Unfortunately, juice fasting, although beneficial, is just not really in my range of feasibility for the time being, mostly due to cost. It would take an awful lot of fruits and vegetables to maintain a 7-day, 3-4 quart…
  • Here we go :) Let’s try to share some recipes, experiences and report back each day with our successes. Sometimes, it helps us to stay disciplined knowing that we have someone to ‘report to’ :) Wishing you all well on this green journey! -Dave:)
  • Hi eshne, I think maybe I’ll start tomorrow too, being that I’ve already eaten some fruit this morning. I’m 3 quarts per day – 1 quart for breakfast, lunch, and dinner – or perhaps more if I’m really starting to feel hungry. It’s really hard for me …
  • Hi Eshne, I had 4 oranges for breakfast this morning, but am ready to start now (7 days perhaps?) if you’re still in. Have you started? I’ll have a green smoothie for lunch and dinner this evening, and we’ll take it from there. Report back if you ca…
