Thank you! The nausea went away but now I've had a sore throat for 3 days. I've been raw for 24 days... I guess I'll have to deal with the detox symptoms for now.

Coconut oil on your body immediately after a shower... African shea butter is also great and contains a natural spf

I am on day 16 of my raw vegan journey.. When I am not eating (like in the middle of the night or in the morning) I get very nauseous. The nausea wakes me up at night. Anyone else experience this or know why it happens? My stomach feels completely empty although I'm eating around 2500 calories a day, I eat right before bed and I am reaching pretty much all of my nutritional targets. I also feel light headed like I haven't had food in days.... I have started drinking a little apple cider vinegar in a glass of water every morning not sure if that is the cause .... The only time I feel good is when I'm eating or just ate.

I never counted calories I ate as much as I wanted to... The first time I went raw, I lost 14 pounds in 21 days and I was eating all day.... and I was not over weight to begin with....

Hi! I am glad you mentioned this.... It can be very expensive with all of these extravagant recipes. I only buy organic when I can afford it. I stick to eating a lot of bananas because they are cheap. I get a lot of my fresh produce in bulk from costco  (a typical costco run includes huge bags of kale, broccoli, spinach, 6 pack of avocado, flax/chia seeds, celery and around 60 bananas). Berries, apples and oranges etc are only purchased when they are on sale... With costco there is a membership fee but they send you the money back at the end of the year if you spend a certain amount of money in the store. I eat all of the food I have already bought before buying more (even if im not in the mood to eat it). I only buy nuts/seeds when they are on sale because otherwise I wouldnt be able to afford it. I am currently raw vegan and my husband and son are just vegan. We stick to very plain recipes. I originally went vegan when I was on government assistance and couldnt work. I cant afford to buy 100% organic and I dont make a big fuss about it. Non organic raw food is much better than eating animal products or other processed foods.
