Hi All,

A friend wanted me to help her go raw after endless whining about how to lose weight and get 'that glow' that she once had as a teen. It's day 6 for her and she actually gained a 1.3...

Actually yes I think so, drink a ton of water (I was drinking around 4 liters a day for the first few weeks). Watermelon juice with lemon is pure alkaline and very detoxifying, green juices and green...

Amen Freshlight!

Yikes! I know what you mean. We just visited some friends who have splenda in everything and think margarine is healthy! I never ate the latter but I used to have Splenda too and get headaches from...

I had a horrible chemical/metallic taste in my mouth for the first 2-3 weeks of going raw, also after eating. I think your mouth detoxes as well, that's all.

Dark greens are alkaline not acidic. Here's a list of the only acidic vegetables:

ACIDIFYING VEGETABLES
Corn
Lentils
Olives
Winter Squash

I think that taking care of your health, mind and body has to come from within, it's a concisous decision to treat yourself right because you deserve good health, inner and outer beauty and a...

It's also my understanding that sipping citrus/acidic fruits for a long time is NOT good for your teeth that teeth cannot handle the constant acid wash over sustained periods of time. Also, NOT to...

Also, here's a link to making your own raw beer: http://yankeeharp.googlepages.com/rawbeer

Cask ale, the type I mentioned in my above post is also prepared without boiling because it does NOT use...

I wanted to bump this thread because on a trip to Scotland this past week, I discovered RAW BEER! My husband really misses his beer and we only drink raw wine on occassion as I do feel I diminish the...

Hiya,

I need a way to work in raw prep better. In conventional recipes, they always say things like "can be made ahead" or "keeps for 2 days" etc. Would love some help with this when it comes to...

Any other sprouts have white hairs on them? I think mine are radish but the seed box is in Dutch and I don't know all the types in there. I just dumped the whole tray thinking they were moldy!

I...

I have two mothers. One is the very supportive of raw (despite having some health behaviors and being overweight most of the time, she knows raw is the best path is even if she doesn't follow it),...

nearly every raw nut and seed out there can be made into a milk. macadamia, hemp seed and almond (leave it in the pulp for a few hours then strain and its super rich) are my faves. People also love...

Myownworstenemy, you are a hero.

I use hemp seeds with shell on for hemp milk, which is the only vegan milk my hubby will drink now! Yay! I found a raw way to sub dairy for him finally. Hulled hemp seeds tossed in smoothies and...

I'm 3 months raw, yesterday was my anniversary! I definitely feel the difference, I just also happen to be a person who prefers to support that inner proof with scientific reasoning or research. Pure...

Awesome, thank you!

Well, I know that's the accepted truth and the principle I am operating on now, but how do we KNOW? I did an enzyme test for dehydrating but that was for whole foods. Why all the fuss over drinking...

I just made a pizza with a sprouted buckwheat crust and flax meal, topped with marinara, olive meat, and basil, yum! But, after grinding up my lil sprouties in the blender, and then putting the pizza...

Now I have a D! Would you lovelies kindly post your faves for butternut squash using the D?

I am trying to sprout buckwheat at the moment and I'm on day 3 of sprouting and no tails to be seen either. I think that your adzukis, like I'm beginning to suspect of my buckwheat, was probably heat...

I don't think all cooked food is addictive. I think chemically processed, GMO, preservative full food is addictive because it is ENGINEERED to be so "appealing" and we are programmed to ignore our...

My Excalibur (surprise from my sweet hubby) arrives tomorrow!

I am so excited but also nervous. I see on the forums how people do fruit and veg this or that way, processing, prepping, adjusted...
