Yes, it's important to have vitamin C with your iron. That's why green smoothies are so awesome. You get your iron from the leafy greens, then the vitamin C from the fruit. Perfect combo. Hope you...

Absolutely! Omar's place is amazing. I've been to several raw food places around the country and as far as meals and atmosphere that are
wrapped in LOVE, his is tops for sure.

The blender and strainer idea is great. I've done it before and it works. You could do a green smoothie fast, too, if you have a good blender, or green smoothie and juice. Another idea for cleansing...

Thanks so much, Revvell!

Hi. I haven't been on here in years. I've recently started going on another forum for raw food support and realized I missed it
here. It'll take me awhile to get reacquainted with the format, etc....

I'm scared to commit but I know I must! Y'all will be here for me, right? I know I can, especially if I get some flax seed substitutes for crackers.

My experiences w/ flax seed crackers have been awful. What are some good substitutes for flax seeds in crackers. I know the flax has the consistency to hold crackers together. Has anyone tried...

Wonderful! Thanks so much for the post.

Best wishes to you! Welcome.

For drinks, I'd recommend green smoothies. There's tons of recipes on this site, just search green smoothies. Having fruit and veggies around to grab and eat on the run is a huge benefit. Best of...

Great pics! What cute kids! Looks like fun.

You can have salt w/ a raw vegan diet. It sounds like you need some salt and you don't have to give up being raw vegan for salt.

What an inspiration you are! Way to go and thanks for the rawsome ideas. Oh, yeah, congrats on being migraine free. Wonderful!!!

I agree w/ Revvell. I did Bikram a few times and didn't like it any of the times. I was trying to force myself to enjoy it b/c of all the other people raving about it-you know like how great they...

Sounds good. I can't wait to try it!

You could probably sub sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds for any nuts in a recipe and have it be okay.
I personally don't know anyone who's cured a nut allergy through raw.
Best of luck!

carolg, here's basically what his GS has:

a bit of water, three handfuls of baby spinach, a handful of another type of green (kale, chard, etc), blend well, then add a banana or two, a cup of...

Congratulations! I'm so happy for you-keep it up. :p

I told one of my friends how make GS. She has them daily now and loves them.

Her stepfather is in liver failure and feels really sick most of the time. She taught her mom how to make GSs for...

Symptoms of low blood pressure are usually nausea, vomiting and dizziness/light headedness. If you feel fine it's probably normal for you. Water is always good though! As a nurse I take many blood...

I loved it! Great info. The question I hear more than any other about how I choose to eat is "How do you get protein?" Thanks for the link!

What are soap nuts, I've never heard of them before. Also, how well do they work? How are they w/ stains ( I have kids)?

Thanks a bunch! :p

OK, so for how likely it would be for you to safely eat nuts again after being raw I would say extremely UNLIKELY. Yes, I believe it's possible to heal anything but I don't think it's worth the risk...
