I have both of them and I always naturally go to my Ktec first when I use one. The Ktec is much easier to clean out and scrape your food out of it. It's high-powered, has a digital display, and...

I like how he said "count nutrients" not calories. That was a nice piece about the evolutionary diet. I'm getting more excited to watch the special tonight.

Dr. Oz always seems so "nice" and I love how he "breaks it down" for you when explaining things. If he does head up the special I mentioned in my earlier post, it'll probably be filled with a lot of...

I like Natural Zing on the Internet for Raw carob- that's a good source.

I'm a fan of storing things in the refrigerator and freezer, in glass mason jars :)

I know! FRUSTRATING!

Also, there is a special on BBC Discovery Health channel...tonight, tomorrow and Wednesday night. It's titled American Health, The Truth About Food. I think he's heading it...

Veg News Magazine has a great feature about how to respond to people when they ask about your diet. It's entirely smart-ass, but hilarious! It's page 79.

As far as family and social gatherings.......

I have heard it mentioned that the fat percentage does change upon soaking. The only way it makes sense to me is thinking of it this way...1 cup of unsoaked nuts has more fat then 1 cup of soaked...

Hi :)

I prefer the wide mouth mason jars, but you can get an attachment for both the wide mouth and the narrower mouth.

Buy the jars at any hardware store typically or walmart, grocery store,...

Have you tried the Travel Blender? This could be useful for you. It's on Amazon for less than 50 bucks...Tribest Personal Blender - PB-100 Blending Package (with new S-Blade Assembly).

Then...

Some tips to keep them longer because yes, they can last a few days....or more :)

1) Yes, the citrus can help.

2) I store mine in glass mason jars and fill them to the top to have as little...

That's awesome!

I believe in taking the time to just rest if you feel tired, let your body do its work. Hopefully your schedule will allow this. Get plenty of fluids and relax.

Cheers!

This is what worked for me:

It’s important to reduce or eliminate unhealthy food from your diet. The first step (and maybe obvious) is to eliminate junk food, packaged snacks, fried foods,...

I recently tried a wine that was VEGAN and ORGANIC. This led me to wonder whether all wines are vegan!? In some brief research on the Internet, this is what I found...

If it says "vegan" on the...

Emphatically YES!!!! Ask them!!!!!

:) They are almost ALWAYS willing to sell it to you for less. What typically happens is that they give it to soup kitchens.

Are you exercising? Getting a good sweat will do miracles to your body composition.

If anyone is having a hard time losing weight on Raw, then adding good exercise could make all the difference...

No, the savory/spicy will not mix with the sweet. Enjoy!

My Whole Foods in Arizona is great about listening to their customers' requests. If you haven't already, email them (through their website) AND write on their comment board that you want more RAW...

I'm not a fan of sea vegetables. The weird thing is that I used to love seafood before I became a vegan. But the sea veggies? Ick :eek:

Although, who knows...maybe it'll taste good with the fruit...

I add extra fruit in my green smoothies to make sure they fill me up. It makes them even more delicious and satisfying.

If you're still hungry after drinking them, try that :)

For example, I'll...

When I'm having cravings, fruit is a sure-fire way to fix it for me. Eating a banana or two does wonders. They're great and easy to transport, too, so I always grab a couple when leave to run errands...

Sounds like a terrific book. I'm going to check it out, too.

Thanks!

I really like RAWvolution, too.

But, for me, I had to use less garlic and less namo shoyu than he does. It's pretty heavy in some of his recipes.

That's great about the frozen wheat grass for dogs! I'm going to try that!

Here's something to think about, too.

If you have friends or family who are fence sitters for Raw food, this could be a golden opportunity for them to get a ton of questions answered! Sometimes it...
