It usually takes 21 days to break a habit and start a new one, even after that long you will notice you feel better. After a month I didn't even feel like any at all, I never added salt to recipes...

Alissa shares what she eats in a day in her book, lots of fruit, green smoothies, salads some recipes etc. She runs a restaurant and creates great recipes but even she doesn't eat gourmet raw all day...

If you overeat on fruits, greens and veggies you will be better off than if you over eat on avocados and nuts as they take much longer to digest and slow down your metabolism. Also i find it very...

Here's an interesting article on calories:

Here's a small part of it

"As...

I don't use the pill anymore and am so glad to be off of it. There's some cool new devices out that track your cycles for you and tell you when you can get pregnant. Check out...

it depends on how much fat you're eating in general, 1/2 a small avocado every day or a whole one every few days is fine. But you are not eating enough fruit calories at all to warrant large amounts...

i have some dulse i use for an occaisonal salt replacement to recipes. I just find i'm extremely adverse to the flavour now. Any amount of crystal salt in a dish is too salty for me. And i used to...

I don't understand some of these things... people are arguing for salt licks being natural but this is for grazing animals. People, are we grazing animals? Do we eat only grass and water? I think...

lol. Such great life lessons for the kids. :)

You would never eat plain salt in nature, ever. Anything that is a condiment or seasoning is not a food, but some are more toxic than others. I go by my own experience and also note that long term...

Hey Cathy you might want to do some research on blood platelet count and white blood cell counts of raw foodists. There is going to be a huge difference.

SAD eaters are the standard people that...

Haha I was wondering if anyone on this forum would agree with that article. :) I've always stuck to green smoothies rather than force myself to get used to wheat grass. I've actually felt quite...

I feel better eating melons and grapes alone on an empty stomach.

Only mix fruits with greens

or veggies with greens

or greens and fats

Never fruits with fat if i want to feel good and...

Actually frozen grapes are really good, I haven't had those in a long time but they're great for when you feel like snacking.

You could try buying in bulk flats of fruit or greens from farmers markets or your local grocer. You just have to ask, and maybe you'll get a good deal if every week you buy a huge flat of say...

I second the green smoothie thing, whether it's savoury or sweet, seriously it's hard to have bad SAD cravings if your full. The greens really help. That is my worst problem making sure i'm not...

If you're eating greens even semi frequently on a raw diet i really doubt you'll have problems getting enough calcium.

Try entering the fruits, veggies, salads and green smoothies into fitday.com...

Try ommitting salt from your diet, it really dehydrates you and can restrict proper circulation. A lot of people have cured migraines on a salt free diet. Try it for a week with out adding any to...

In the past 7 years i've destroyed at least 5 blenders just making thick smoothies. Forget even trying to make banana icecream or warm soup in a blender if you don't have a Vitamix.

I don't even...

Perhaps its bad food combining or too much fat. There's a lot of fat in junk foods and it can slow your detoxification process, same thing with nuts, oils and avocados, that could be why it keeps...

Yes remove the stems of kale, they're the most bitter, the Boutenko's even reccommend it and they live on smoothies.


Also you don't want to mix root veggies and fruits (if you were going to) as...

Green smoothies are generally 60% fruit, and 40% greens... and do not reccommend putting vegetables, roots into smoothies. Green juice yes, smoothies no.

Use a fruit like banana, mango, grape,...

I use almonds or almond pulp because they are not as bitter as raw chickpeas and still make a thick dip. It makes a huge difference in flavour

There is so much info in the forum already on those topics. Particularly b12 has a few recent posts floating around, search through the past few days history to find them.

Also the RDA is for SAD...
