9 months? Are you nursing? Your breastmilk should be providing all of these types of things. If you aren't nursing, Udo's Oil has a vegan DHA blend.

WASH EVERYTHING before juicing. That's why unpasteurized juices get contaminated as far as I know.

If your kids prefer juice, let them have juice! They can get their fiber from the whole foods they eat. :)

Oh yes - the salt is really important. My daughter always says "It tastes like water!" when I forget the salt. I usually use 2 pinches of himalayan salt with about 4 cups of mylk, then the agave to...

I use raw agave to sweeten everything. It's just sweet, no flavor like maple and sucanat have.

If I were you, just make the mylk and then mix it maybe 1-to-3 with the soymilk they like. Not...

What a great website! I'm bookmarking it forever :D

OMG green smoothie leather! Okay, I will try that next time as I think that would be a 2 day process and I'm leaving tomorrow morning :)

Great tips - thanks everyone!

Any food tips for a 3 day backpacking and camping in the wilderness trip? It's a last minute thing with a friend who is vegetarian but not raw... I used to bring pasta and those dehydrated meals...

You look great! I can certainly see the difference.
Since cutting tomatoes and bell peppers (I know, sad...) out of my diet for a while, my rosacea has cleared up. It flares every time I have some...

My husband and I decided it was definitely green smoothie he was drinking. And as for the cheeseburgers, it was after he had been in captivity in a very foreign country for 3 months! I would...

Alissa sells a green food and enzymes that look really good but I haven't tried them yet. Check out her store under "supplements".

We've been using the same brand blue green algae since about...

These sound fun! I wonder if the cacao can be substituted with carob. Has anybody else tried subbing in recipes like this? My daughter likes carob and can't eat chocolate because she gets a rash.

My girl loves to chew wheatgrass like gum. I buy little pots of it at the farmer's market and she chews it all day long.

And here's a great blog!...

I loooooove sauerkraut. You should look for ones that say "cultured" and unpasteurized if they don't outright claim to be a raw food. I put it on top of salad with a bit of good olive oil and...

Wow. intense thread.

Parents do weird things to their kids out of love!

I like to look at the home we live in as everyone's house, not just mine, or the adults and everyone else is a boarder. ...

Our family is lacto-vegetarian for spiritual reasons, and my husband and I are raw for health reasons. We enjoy the added eco-benefit as well :)

My daughter is 5, and as we don't eat eggs and...

So I will definitely look into the PH thing - I've seen the testing tape at the HFS, but never did it.

What does a typical alkaline-diet day look like?

My daughter is 5 and has always been sensitive to foods with acid in them - citrus, tomatoes, pineapple, more than "just a couple" strawberries, vinegared foods, foods/drinks with ascorbic acid or...

Think about a big, ole 400 pound silverback gorilla.
How much of what our society has learned to call "protein" foods does he eat?

ZERO!!!

"Gorillas are predominantly herbivores, eating mostly...

Nope we don't use multis. My daughter gets a little bowl of pills in the morning though - about 8 super blue green algae capsules, 2 probiotics, maybe 4 enzyme caps, and then also some more algae in...

I'm no expert, but for such a young babe, I would be cautious about looking for "foods" with vit. D. If he is being breast-fed, I don't know if upping your Vit D would help? Everything I have heard...

I usually rinse my mouth with water first before swishing. But I don't use toothpaste because I don't want it to interfere with the oil pulling. Maybe if your teeth feel really fuzzy when you get...

I use Spectrum brand sunflower oil. I also have used their (untoasted!) sesame oil, but it is much more expensive, I'd rather save it to flavor recipes with. This brand is very commonly found in...

Yes I was going to suggest that you play around with Indian spice mixes - curry, masala, etc, in your salad dressings, mixed vegetables etc.
