If you're making flax crackers with whole flax seeds, then all you need to do is chew really well when you eat the crackers to get the flax benefits.

RECIPE Update:

For those who have bought the recipe--the author of the recipe says that the agave powder should be the 8th ingredient and water the 7th.

Based on this thread, I went ahead and bought the recipe. It does have powdered agave as a major ingredient (not just for dusting), as well as young coconut. I don't think I would have bought the...

You don't have to boil the tea, and you can use unrefined sugar or agave.

I love using sunflower seeds as a base for smoothies--they blend up *really* smooth, and are cheap and nutritious. But I agree that a sunflower milk will separate with storage. I'd recommend just to...

My only suggestion is to use soaked cashews. I also always fail at making mayonnaise-like dressings with vinegar/lemon juice and oil--I've tried many recipes, and poured the oil in a very thin...

As a skeptic, I highly recommend crystal manna if you can find and afford it. It's one of the few supplemental foods (along with maca and chocolate) that I find make an almost immediate impact on the...

sesame and sunflower seeds are both very good and inexpensive. I think that soaked sunflower seeds mixed with sweetener & flavoring (e.g. dates & carob) makes a great sweet dip, and I especially...

Anything "freeze-dried" will probably not reach temps over 118. My guess is that the "veggies" dried at higher temps are those that are obviously not freeze-dried, e.g. the tomatoes, peppers,...

For some reason cilantro works really well with apples--fuji are my favorite.
Apples, cilantro, kale, and lemon makes a good green smoothie.

Yum! Thanks for the recipe!

I almost omitted the OJ, but I'm so glad I didn't. This would make a great base for an egg nog-type drink.

Kaybee, thank you SO MUCH for your advice. I'd been thinking about getting a new juicer because all my pieces were breaking, but this looks like a way better plan.

I'm sorry to hear you're having...

Hi Kaybee

I have a Solostar and have tried making almond butter with dry almonds a few times. I wind up with either almond meal or an almost plastic-like extrusion that backs up the juicer and is...

Actually, I think if you have a good blender, butternut squash is a good substitute for pumpkin. But I usually use it to make a soup, adding cinnamon, maybe curry powder, nutritional yeast, miso,...

1. Do the test
2. Eat garlic

Sorry, but I suspect this is a better test of your PC/network connection speed than...

If you can't find medjools, try soaking your other dates in water for ~15 minutes. Drain before using, of course.

And RP, here's another big thank you for figuring this one out. It was when I...

I think jicama would be a great replacement. If you don't have access to that either, firm apple might work, depending on the recipe.

I bought this from ebay (it isn't made any more), and the instructions say not to use it with raw nuts or seeds. I have varied success with raw sesame seeds and flax seeds, but almonds don't ever...

Unless there's really almost no liquid in your VitaMix, it should not be acting the way it is. I have one, and use it all the time--twice a day or more. And when I grind difficult stuff (like when...

I agree that you shouldn't get too worried, but it would probably be a good idea to add some more protein to your daughter's diet; I think that Spectatrix's suggestion nut milk is a great idea. ...

haha . . . I clicked on the link to reply to this even before I realized that you were referring to my thread (if not my original recipe) . . .

Almost every day I make a nut-based smoothie with...

Rum, like all liquors, involves a large amount of distillation, so I doubt that making a raw version would really work. However, you can buy rum flavoring, which, while not raw, will only require a...

Coconut fat speeds up your metabolism--i.e. helps you to lose weight, not to mention lots of other great benefits. There's an article here: http://www.beyondhealth.com/coconutoil.htm

I think whole oranges in smoothies are gross; I agree with those above who suggest the juice only in your smoothie. And you could always just eat the orange separately.
Remember that food has to...

Here's a great place to look for B12 information: http://www.veganhealth.org/b12/
They do talk about raw foodists there, so take note.

However, I wish I could tell you what to do to help, but all...
