If you eat them without the salt, they might loose their appeal and you'll find that it was the salt you were really after. I was binging on salads for awhile and then I realized that it was the...

Fruits have sugar but they are in no way equivalent to white sugar. All the vitamins and minerals in fruits make them valuable, like veggies, for healing. White sugar actually had 64 vitamins and...

Thanks! I never heard of Farmacy before, I love it!

I would mix it with dried fruit like raisins, softer fruit might not work as well, they tend to like to digest faster than anything else.

Nuts and seeds? that would probably be up to you. I've...

After I graduated from highschool, my folks had a baby, but a few generations ago it was really common for women to have babies over a long period of time. My Grandmother-in-law says that her mom and...

I noticed that you weren't eating dates. Dates have 25 calories each, so 4 of them would be an easy 100 calories.

I wish I knew how many calories were in a young coconut, but they don't seem to be...

Poor kitty, I hope everything goes well. I don't know much about antibiotics and cats.

Happy Birthday! Bananas and strawberries put through a champion juicer are like soft-serve ice cream. If you put it back into the freezer it hardens up a little more. I alternate putting the bananas...

Good for you for giving it another try! I felt the same way when I first started raw and the feeling does go away. I would always try to go 100% right away and I would be so discouraged when I...

Breakfast ideas from Ann Wigmore's book, The Hippocrates Diet and Health Program. She does recommend green drinks in the morning! What was also surprising is her use of sprouted wheat cereals.

Yes, I know I don't have to have a green smoothie in the morning, I was just edjumacating myself as to the sources of this concept and I had a concern that this practice might make people discouraged...

I haven't read it, I figured that it was that book that started this. From what I've gathered, Tanya Zavasta also does greens in the morning? I don't have her book Quantum Eating yet.
