I too was concerned about the apparant lack of RDA calcium (per my entries in Fitday so I can see what I'm getting, nutritionally, daily).

When I discussed it with my doctor, he said I really did...

I've used maca powder for months, and noticed nothing special. No changes in my skin quality, no extra energy, no *special* other effects. I guess it's just me.

One thing I DID notice is that my...

I've used only baking soda/peroxide/himalayan salt as a "toothpaste" for the past year. I also in the evenings rinse my mouth with a mix of peroxide and water (3 peroxide to 1 water) to get the...

I was yukking out loud and my DH though I was choking and came running in to see what was going on...he obviously doesn't hear me laughing out loud in front of the 'puter...

I'm a bit confused on the whole sauerkraut thing - I thought the cabbage had to be fermented to be called sauerkraut, and it's done the old fashioned natural way with salt. No vinegar.

So, if it's...

Hey down here in Florida you better chew FAST or those RED ANTS will eat your tongue before you eat them! YIPES!

Well, you know what they say, ..... "tastes like chicken!"

Yummie!

I use Fitday and haven't noticed any tool allowing the whole recipe to be added; I enter each ingredient and hope for the best.

But for me, it's all raw stuff, not a lot of mixing or measuring, I...

I get the "good" apple cider vinegar made from the "mother" of vinegar, at the LHFS. This stuff is wonderful!

My grandma always swore by apple cider vinegar for lots of ailments.

Yep. Well, not totally stinky, but the fact that I had any flatulence at all was totally weird for me. (I hardly ever get any at all...)

Funny thing is, I couldn't figure out what it was at first,...

Thanks so much for the feedback!

I think it's time to add the greens increase my variety of foods/greens.

So, no problem with the "hairyness" of the leaves, huh?

That's great news.

I've...

I saw some beautiful radishes complete with healthy looking greens at the market today, but didn't purchase them. I'm not a huge radish fan.

Of course, when I got home, I'm...

Did you try Ebay?

Some of the sellers don't sell it as food, they sell it as bath salts at a MUCH reduced price. I purchased the ones about the size of corn grains, not the huge chunks, and they...

I add a bit of wheatgrass (minus the roots) to my smoothies, not a ton of it, and it has an OK flavor. But so does parsley and watercress, so the strong flavor is not really an issue. I have no...

Wow, this is interesting - I was having a major "realization" on this very topic just yesterday!

Here's the scoop for me personally:

I had joint pain in my fingers and shoulders for years...

I tried doing the 80-10-10 diet thing (10% fat, 10% protein daily) and what I wreck I became! I was always hungry, snacking like crazy, and miserable. On top of that, my skin became totally dry and...

Brianna, hi!

I totally understand where Dr. Clement is coming from re: fruit if you are sick and trying to recover.

But how about when you're all healed/cured/not sick anymore? Eating just...

Well, I've gone pretty much from SAD to fasting 24 hours plus colonic to juicing about 7-10 days to raw, and it wasn't a psychological effort at all. I was just ready to do it.

However, I will...

Smaller leaves in salads, larger leaves plus those wonderful red stems in smoothies. That's how I use them.

For the longest time, I'd eat the tops and my DH would eat the roots. Then he started...

I heard that silicon type veggies (cukes, skins on tomatoes and red peppers, etc.) are good for hair and fingernail growth. I eat a lot of them and my fingernails grow like crazy!

My hair has an...

I was taking some medication a few years ago, and one of the side effects was that my body decided my thyroid was the enemy. It no longer functions.

I've been mostly raw for the past year plus,...

Wow, maybe I'm the weirdo, but I'm getting easily 50 grams protein per day! And the majority of it from fruits/veggies. Yes, I do eat one ounce hempseed daily, which has a goodly amount of protein,...

I found a source for FREE coconuts, and my DH and I split the coconut water and meat daily for our respective smoothies. (He likes his way too sweet for me, and not hardly any greens, where I am a...
