Are you sure the recipe meant sprouted sunflower seeds or could they have meant soaked sunflower seeds? Sometimes people say spouted for nuts when they really mean soaked.

After reading your friend's email to you, I thought I'd write up a response and post it to my blog because I'm sure there are others with similar concerns. Posting it there also prevents any...

TV commericals are barely the tip of the iceberg. Oh, well, there are none so blind as them who will not see...

They have a bit more influence than just "suggesting"... sure, folks with the available money and the sense to see how the government and agribusiness are controlling the food available to consumers...

You might also try fermenting the cucumbers into a pickle. Could probably do the zucchini, too but I don't know. I have a book on fermented pickles...tried one batch but they didn't turn...

Hate to tell you this, but "our government" already involves itself in our "health" issues! Familiar with the Food Pyramid? USDA...with an eye on what will benefit agribusiness of course...telling...

Hello ya'll,

I was wondering if any of you have experienced or know about whether fasting (or juice feasting) helps the adrenals.

The last fast I did was in January when I did 21 days (7 days...

Hi Davylp25!

I'm glad I found this thread. I woke up this morning feeling like it was time to do a fast again....haven't fasted since January because the last fast threw me into a plateau and I...

(blushing) Thanks!

First, congrats on the pregnancy! That's great news...once you get over the shock anyway!

Now, as for eating raw and being pregnant. I'm not an expert by any stretch of the imagination so my...

My understanding is he is talking about all carrots as we know them. (Even, for the one who asked, "heirloom carrots".) Here's why: carrots are descended from Queen Anne's Lace. Man selected for...

"What on average did you lose weekly? Monthly?"

I averaged 2.5 pounds a week. Sometimes more. Sometimes less.

"Did you weigh yourself - daily, weekly?"

Don't weigh more often than once a...

The steak analogy is good. But, let me ask you this: how often does your husband eat a steak dinner? Nightly? Once a week? How much do you actually spend on your husband's food vs your raw food? ...

A: It depends on whether one can afford to buy better quality food or clothes. I can tell you that those of us shopping at Wally World aren't doing so because we don't want to wear Armani!
B: I...

Raw is not for the poor. Fruits and veggies are expensive...organic is ridiculous...I don't see how anyone can say Raw is cheaper the SAD unless they are growing their own.

If our government...

And, to follow up, we NEED that mucus lining our gut. Without it, the digestive juices would digest our gut and not just the food (that's where ulcers, etc., come from). Leave your mucus alone!

I drink Kombucha. :)

As to whether the stomach kills them before they get to the intestine, let's think about that a minute. Our intestinal function depends...yes, depends...on microbes living...

If you brew your own you can play with different combinations of teas, stop the ferment at different points, etc. until you find one that suits you. I also think over time you will learn to like it...

Just let it go flat before you drink it. And, yes, just bottoms up and let those lovelies go to work for you!

I joined the OK list at yahoo, and found someone who had extra "babies" (small SCOBYs that grow as an offshoot of the "mother"). I paid for the shipping cost. I then went to Wally World and bought...

Any you definitely have the will! :)

It definitely takes time to chew really well...

No, there is not danger to making your own. The brew can take anywhere from 5 to 14 days depending on ambient temperatures, planetary alignments, etc. The thing with the "explosion" is that if...

Yeah...umm...sure...I can see those African kids plugging in their vitamixes...into...well...a solar panel?....:confused:

My thought is this...chewing does more than just break up the food...it...

Kombucha is a fermented tea. Any black tea (or combinations of black, green, and white) sweetened with regular old table sugar (don't worry, the scoby eats that) is fermented by the kombucha SCOBY...

I started out drinking GT's when I could afford to buy one...or one case....from my co-op. Once I'd reached the point of buying cases, I figured it was time to start brewing my own. I have my third...
