I'll try soaking the veggies!!! Thanks!

I've heard that flax seeds do not digest properly if they are not ground. I have been eating flax seed crackers using whole flax seeds and haven't noticed any problems. Just wondering if I'm...

I keep buying too much food. I wanted to make celery soup last week, but never got to it. Now my celery is kind of limp. Its not too bad...I mean I would still eat it. But I was wondering if the...

Pizda, thanks for the great info...I'll print out.

Solar Living, I heard also that you don't want to combine nuts and fruits. I'm new at being a raw fooder and am trying to experiment, so even...

I'm interested in the food combining theory. How long should one wait between eating one type of food and then having another? For example, if I eat an apple or 2 apples at 10:00 then how long...

Oh No! I just bought Raw Raw Honey and thought it was perfect -- says its drained right from the honeycombs, pieces of honeycomb may be in the honey...FULL of live enzymes. Its the best honey I've...

I did not do the ginger mushrooms, but I did make the avacado mix that you stuff back in the avacados and wow, oh wow...I loved it. With the braggs sauce poured over the top. My husband's eyes...

I tried Alissa's angel hair and marinara -- and oh my. I never ate raw tomatoes before (hated them raw) -- this sauce was so good. The whole thing is so fresh. Its amazing. My question is, I had...

I want to make an avocado dish that uses portebello mushrooms (I need to use them before they go bad). I noticed a couple of recipes in Alissa's book and wondered if the combination would work (I'm...

I've been trying to somewhat follow the food combining rules, but since I'm new, I'm giving myself some room so I can play with the recipes. But, I can say that I definately notice the difference...

Thanks everyone for the input. Tim, hope you feeling better today. I still need to check out the forum Rawkinlocs suggested, but I'm hoping its just a few day of grumpiness here and there and maybe...

OMG! I would so starve on that much food. Well, I would now anyway, my understanding is that once my body gets accustomed to absorbing nutrients, I wont need as much food or feel hungry on less...

Thanks Gail. Good luck to you too. Keep us posted on how you are doing.

Sharon, what to you mean by mono-mealing? Eating only one type of fruit at a time? Is there in chance of getting sick from too much fruit? Bananas and apples seem to be the only fruit that really...

Today is my first 100% day and I'm really excited (just a little hungry). I'm curious about when I will start to detox. Is this something that happens in the first week? What kind of symptoms are...

Thanks for the input. I know I shouldn't worry too much about the fats, like Alissa says, its just a difficult change -- I'm feeling hungry, yet full because I've eaten so much fruit already and...

I was looking over Frederic Patenuade's website and downloaded some of his materials. He talks about paying attention to not eating too many nuts or oils, as that could cause problems. Most of...

I'm not vegan yet, but will hopefully get there. I bought some of the raw museli from Alissa's store, and it seems like it would be so good soaked in yogurt, but I guess thats not the best way to...

I'm sure the answer to my question is somewhere on the board already, but I couldn't find it with a search. I was wondering why yogurt still has live enzymes and because it does, could it be...

I was told by a dietician that the body cannot process whole flax seeds and that they must be ground.

Is there any benefit to making smoothies as opposed to just eating the fruit? Or is it just for variety. I was under the impression that whole foods were better than foods being broken down. Is...

Does anyone have problems with produce going bad before they get a chance to eat it? How many times a week are you all shopping?

Great! I had no idea there were websites on this issue. I have some reading to do. thanks!
sonja.

I wasn't sure where to post this question. I went vegetarian for ethical reasons -- and now I'm learning about the great health benefits of not eating meat and now going raw. My question is about...

Wow...thanks for all the great advice. This really helped.
