• I've always heard that castor oil makes eyelashes grow. Which is better for longer/thicker lashes, castor oil or coconut oil?

• OH YES. Highlights: Fetal position, permanent residency in the loo. And 30+ bananas a day... I wouldn't imagine that bananas have any fiber. Idk I could be wrong, but they just seem too heavenly and creamy. Eating fibrous foods is "roughing it", and…

• Seriously guys, try the green flavor!! It's the one with spirilania (sp?)...? It tastes like sugar cookies! I hate the price, too...pretty pricy for a bottle of rotten mushroom juice... ;-P

• I did the exact same thing a few months ago. What I did was obsessively apply sore-muscle goo on it (the kind that smells like menthol), take hot showers (I theorized it would "loosen" the muscles, can't say for sure if I'm right), massage it (pinsc…

• By the way, you are so slim. I am so jealous! :-O I probably need to not eat 900 calories worth of chocolate everyday (in addition to 3000 cals of raw foods)... it's like an addiction for me though... argh... But you probably have a really fast meta…

• I know I'm going against the grain here (pun not intented), but I find that I experience the opposite. That is, I stay very warm if I eat LOTS of fats, but I freeze on a diet of predominantely fruit. Either way, I have a healthy appetite, so I consu…

• Ooh yes, we’ve got to keep this threat active!! Asian markets are amazing. I get dates there for under $2. And I’ve found gojis there, too. Thing is, the gojis look pretty dry and musty LOL…and I hear dates are commonly steamed i.e., not raw. I trie…

• DagnyTaggart – My friends and family DO know that I hate the taste of meat/eggs/dairy, but the difference between that and them knowing that I’m (supposed to be) a vegan is that I won’t freak out about what kind of oil my french fries were cooked in…

• hehehehe… I don’t tell anyone I’m raw. Not even my family knows. I don’t even tell people I’m a vegetarian, much less vegan raw. If I’m eating around people, I sort of put my “raw” on hold and eat whatever I want. So, I’m obviously not 100% raw. Eve…

• I always add water to my smoothies. I have to, otherwise my blender will come out with green “stew” instead of a green “smoothie”. LOL I probably add from 1 to 4 cups, depending on what’s in the smoothie. But it still doesn’t work…I’m wondering if i…

• Sue – That’s interesting, does fiber really zonk you out? I can eat tons of whole flaxseeds, dates, seeds, nuts with no problem, but maybe I’m trying to run before I can walk. I am still succumbing to cooked JUNK food whenever I’m in a social settin…

• Twice a day? Or more?? My skin would be so raw (sorry), if not all scraped off, lol. When I do it, I do it only before I hop into the shower in the morning. To be honest, it doesn’t really do much for me. I think it just “improves circulation” becau…

• Blessed it with my autograph. ;-) Until something’s done, I choose to cashew (ermm, eschew) all nuts. I just don’t trust in claims of what’s really raw and what’s not for the time being.

• Yeah, do you eat a lot of citrus? Cause if you do, you should rinse your mouth out at least with water to get all the lingering acids out. And if you’re human enough to cheat, do you drink a lot of soda? There’s the phosphorous issue. But since you’…
