Mocha, you're a beautifully handsome boy.
And I've heard AWFUL things about Braggs, online. Or, at least I've heard awful things about how it's being manufactured now.
Not sure how true it all is, but some of the letters I read came from her legal counsiler. Read that after some court hearings, she was forced to take off the "No MSG" label because MSG is created during the pepar

After hearing the name thrown around a bit, I found wheatgrass on the menu at a restaurant. Just about the only restaurant in my area that has a juice bar menu. Actually, it's the ONLY one that I know if. Kind of sad.
I decided to try a shot of it.
Since then, I've had it 3 times and only one of those times, it didn't make me nauseous.I just read on line that it makes people nauseous beca

Haha, I'm actually going to have to agree with David. I think the worst thing about that last shot is the bad lighting, not your eyes!
Howeveer, I'm pretty sure that darks circles under they eyes are caused but something having to do with absorbing oxygen, and it's basically like bruising because your blood vesseles aren't too strong. It usually means it's happening all over your body, but und

Thanks to all of you who responded! :-)
I took my concerns when I went to see the throat-doctor-man today and I'm quite pleased with his approach. He is treating me for Acid Reflux and think I might simply have allergies, that are affecting one gland more than another.
Maybe.
I told him all my concerns about having a biopsy, and we decided that we're going to watch it for 6 weeks and see

Wow!
For the most part, I've thought that everyone on this board is really helpful and positive, and listens lots and lots. Wayyyyy moreso than I've found people I know (in "real life" to be. I mean, I've seen some petty arguing over which raw diet is better, but I actually think it's kind of funny since I'm mostly surrounded by people on the SAD and they'd all consider everyone here

I want to preface this by saying that I know none of you are doctors. Or if you are, you haven't seen me and don't have the required information to diagnose me or balh blah blah.
That being said, if you have any opinions or knowledge on the topic of lymphomas, feel free to share! Even my docotors have told me that during this time of uncertainty, the best thing to do is eat lots of fresh, orga

Zapple, I certainly do know what you mean! My family and friends never said the hole-in-the-leg bit. Instead, they question, "where do you put it?" As though I know!
I do find myself eating a LOT less when eating raw. And I agree, part of the awesomeness is how simple it is, yet I do find that some people I've talked to make it a bit more complicated than I'm in it for. Confusing, t

Yeah Sparkler, I hear lots about people eating like 5-7 bananas a meal, and here you are with 10!! Holy..jeez. I usually can eat up to 2 or 3. Maybe the apetite is, in fact, my problem.
Weird thing is, the I started eating less after eating mostly raw; I used to be well-known for my outrageous, almost comical apetite. I'm assuming this has something to do with my body just being so pleased abo

But...but...but....
Lettuce and celery, etc. don't have that lovely, slippery, slimey feeling that avacados and coconuts do.
Thanks for the book suggestion! I've been wondering what that 80/10/10 thing that I've been seeing everywhere means, and I've been meaning to read up on it.
I'm certainly doing this real slowly and comfortably, I'not a fan of deprivation, by any means, and so far

Hey thanks! I actually would, ideally, gain some weight.
Raw foods helped me lose a few extra pounds, then helped me lose more-- pounds that I had wished to keep! I liked them where they were.
That was another thing I wanted to include in that post. I know people do it, I've seen big men, body-builder types on raw. I, of course, don't want to be body-builderish, but I do want some cushion

Oh my god! You poor man! I can't offer any advice but I have nightmares like that. I'm sure people offered great advice, but I'd see a dentist. EEEEK!

WHA????
Isn't raw food low fat, already?!?
I'm really new to this and still not all raw, eating whole grains and beans and not planning to give it up until I understand this stuff better. Anyway, I'm drawn to avacados like a mad-woman who functions off avacados because I feel like there is practically no fat in my diet. Plus they taste amazing.
Am I missing something?!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! Why is everyone arguing?!?! Bah.
Rawrrr, I'm a vegetarian who is not all-raw. In fact, only recently have I been including as many raw foods into my diet as possible and I'm not totally sold on the idea that 100% raw is the best route. I can't say either way, until I learn a bit more. What I'm sure of is that, with the knowledge I have now about fruits and vegetables, I c

Thomas, were you referencing "Real Ultimate Power: The Ultimate Ninja Guide," which I'm reading in one of the shots?
(That was actually just my excuse to let people know what book it is, in case they aren't familiar. Whenever I see it, I think it looks like a racist book. And it's not. Just so ya know....)

bluebell,
i've had little experience with the raw food lifstyle, but a decent amount with eating disorders. refeeding is a slow process. some gas is expected, be it biological or psychological and, lots of people here might not agree with me on this, but i don't think your focus should be on what you're putting into your body. after a significant amount of time thinking (too much) about what a

hey mona,
i just joined the forum and i live in boston. there is a raw restaurant in beverly, MA (it's T accessable, but you need to take the commuter rail).
i haven't eaten there-- i'm just getting interested in the raw diet-- but my mother did and she said it was really, really good.
as far as her eating SAD, there is an AMAZING vegan restaurant called "grasshopper" in Bright

bryan and anaken:
thanks for the helpful tips. i think the cheetos comment may have made me seem even less in-the-know than i am. i mean, cheetos were pretty "last semester."
during that time and over spring break, i put on a little weight. i'm not one to cry over a little fat, i think fat has it's place and i would usually say that i look my best with a soft layer over some subst

i think the water fast is what i'm going to do and i'm going to wait until spring break so i won't be burning tons of calories all day (i make quite the commute to school and my days are 14+hours) and i can relax.

while i've been a vegetarian for over 11 years and i was vegan for 3-4 of those years, i am very new to this entire concept of eating all (or even "mostly" raw foods. i have to do something, though.
