Hi there its me Mangold aka Ben.

Hello to everyone, I'm really keen on having some discussions about our raw lives!

This is me and my relation to raw foods:
I first read about the benefits of raw food in about 2002 and straight away became about 75% raw and it was of great benefit for me. I was suffering from Asthma and CFS and it somehow never really came back.

I had my ups and downs with raw food in the last nearly ten years. It does play a big role in my life, though I am not yet really balanced with it and I now have the "problem" of sometimes doing it very intensly. I do several days or a few weeks of juice fasting and feel great, afterwards I also do manage quite well to cope for the first few days after the fast with raw food but then I tend to eat more and more and sometimes fall back into a standard vegetarian diet and even eating sweets, choclate etc. So as you can see I really would like to be more balanced with everything.

Furthermore I'm interested in juicing. I do have a green star juicer at home, though I am not totally happy with its capacity to really make the green juice. When I want to make spinache juice, which is kind of my favorite juice, the green star creates a lot of foam. If someone can give me some kind of advice on that topic I'd be quite happy as well.

See ya

Ben
