Hi, I am 57 years old and I've been raw vegan for a little over a year. I have been on and off vegan/vegetarian for many years but when I seemed to be getting sick a lot and having new health issues, I decided to do what I had read about and not only go back to vegan but begin raw vegan.

I'm happy to say that after going raw vegan, I am currently no longer taking blood pressure medicine. My blood pressure returned to normal. YEAH! At the moment, I take no meds.

When I started going vegan last March 2010, I started a blog called vegantimes.info which is why I chose the name.... I have not been very good about updating it lately but it does have some of my favorite vegan or raw food items.

I found this site because I was searching the food value of soaked flax seed after successfully making a new flax seed recipe for flax crackers. Then, I began reading the posts.

I'm an elementary teacher - 4th grade and enjoying my short summer with my first grandson.

I'm looking forward to learning from each of you.
Jen
