• Don’t be so hard on yourself. Live in the present, not the past. We’re all on a journey and we’d hate to see you harm yourself!! Make sure you have lots of fresh fruit and greens with your favorite dressing around.

• Everyone isn’t the same. Some foods might make others feel as if they consumed something “dead” while others can eat these raw items and still feel great. Do what works for you. :)

  in Craving Chocolate Comment by Superfood
• I would make raw chocolate treats as well, but be mindful of hte caffeine and any other ingredients you are putting into the treats. I like to make truffles with a little agave, vanilla extract, soaked raisins or dates, cacao, and then coat them in …

• I LOVE Pure Food & Wine and would do that for a birthday. Rawstar is good, but they were out of quite a few things.

  in Birthday Dinner in NYC Comment by Superfood
• Wow, I can’t imagine wanting (pig) bacon, so don’t worry – it might pass! If not, there are probably other things you can enjoy, such as sun-dried tomatoes, or if you want to eat some cooked food, try some tempeh bacon or tofu bacon. Just don’t forg…

  in dates Comment by Superfood
• Beany, it was stated that the box of dates seemed to put weight on the hips, not the Bacillus Cereus; that’s what I was responding to.

  in dates Comment by Superfood
• I get organic dates all the time here on the east coast. To be safe, I would get unpitted dates and hope that they are raw. Unfortunately, as of this time, dates are one of those items that are rarely adjectified as “raw” and now we have almonds lab…

  in dates Comment by Superfood
• I doubt dates would cause weight gain unless you are eating A LOT more calories than you are using.

• Honestly, I wouldn’t worry about fat intake if you’re in that place. I’m there, too, and not sure how low (er) fat I can go without having issues…I exercise a lot as well. So don’t be scared to dress up your salads with healthy oils and eat lots of …

  in Extremely Empty!!! Comment by Superfood
• Your body probably doesn’t know what to do right now except hang on to every single bit of energy and fat it has left, since your calorie count is starvation mode.

  in will I gain weight if I go lower raw? Comment by Superfood
• You might have been strict vegetarian, but a vegan would avoid skincare and body care products tested on animals, with animal ingredients, and clothing and other items with animal skins and other parts, so there are no “health” reasons vegans. So no…

• I slept a long time last night, but that’s because I was in my boyfriend’s arms! I sleep so much better with him. From about 9:30 p to 7:30 a.

  in I am going crazy: insomnia and low fat diet? Comment by Superfood
• Hey again. Glad you got some sleep last night! I know I don’t have iron issues because of what I eat, the volume, and how I feel.

  in I am going crazy: insomnia and low fat diet? Comment by Superfood
• Yeah, I’ll probably be taking a nap later….definitely no iron issues for me. I hope it gets better for you as the day goes on! Good run!!

  in I am going crazy: insomnia and low fat diet? Comment by Superfood
• Hey, no sleep. I soaked some buckwheat and nuts for food for me and went to the store to get some items to make a few cooked (vegan) things for my boyfriend. I also walked for an hour and a half. NO energy problems! :)

• Would you believe it’s 430 my time (a.m.) and I’m still awake! I took your insomnia! Please tell me you’re cured. :p

• Sprouts and/or pumpkin seeds are good sources of zinc. Have you put your food info in Fitday? Most likely, on ANY diet, if you aren’t getting enough calories, your nutrition is lacking somewhere or multiple places.

  in I am going crazy: insomnia and low fat diet? Comment by Superfood
• Yeah, your diet sounds good. Are you eating sprouts and different types of seeds/nuts in small amounts, such as Brazil and pumpkin?

  in I am going crazy: insomnia and low fat diet? Comment by Superfood
• Can you tell us what you’re eating and what times, your work and exercise schedule?

  in I am going crazy: insomnia and low fat diet? Comment by Superfood
• It’s actually easier to get your nutrients on a varied raw diet than a typical omnivorous one. Put your food in Fitday for an idea. Get plenty of fruits, green vegetables, and sprouts. You’ll see. If you’re low on selenium, eat a Brazil nut.

  in Weight Gain, Tired, Spacy, Depressed Comment by Superfood
• Yeah, I would do organic olive oil and maybe some ground sea vegetables?

  in nama shoyu raw alternative? Comment by Superfood
• I always call myself a vegan raw foodist or raw foodist vegan because just because you’re a raw foodist doesn’t mean you’re a vegan, and I especially don’t want someone to put honey or any other animal product in my food, nor think that my lifestyle…

  in Mineral makeup? Comment by Superfood
• I think what others already stated – lots of fresh salads, tons of greens, sprouts, fresh fruit (vary it!), avocado, and I do find that ingesting oils (coconut (virgin), hemp, flax, and extra-virgin olive oil) is healthy for me and also nuts. I prob…

  in Healing acne Comment by Superfood
• I have fine hair as well, Sweetpea, and I find that using no shampoo or conditioner (conventional ones) works great, just using baking soda, vinegar, and sometimes avocado oil on the ends before curling. I’m sorry you suffered through bulimia. Hugs …

• I wouldn’t ever go back on the pill or even the copper IUD (and I do agree it’s prob. the best choice if you want to do something unnatural). I am pro-vasectomy if the couple and/or the male has decided that he/they don’t want children. I also am pr…

• If you care about yourself, you are “making” the rest of the world feel bad. Therefore, you now have a disorder!

• It’s nice that you keep an open mind, Kevlar, and continue to evolve! That’s refreshing. :D
