Different nuts require different soak times... you'll just have to experiment. 4-6 hours is a rule of thumb for me, but if I forget them and leave them overnight it's not a huge deal.
If they start to ferment, blend them up with some water, probiotics, and leave in an open dish on your counter for two days. Then add salt and herbs... NUT CHEESE! YUM!

The credible cases of temporary breatharians are the ones I find interesting, experiencing inedia as a SIDE EFFECT of an explosive spiritual experience (note, it does not last forever).
I think there is a degree of being seriously misguided when you miss the cause and strive for the side effects... so to speak. IMHO, it's like other kinds of strange spontaneous healing, those moments under str

I went to the health food store, and they had the Mediterranean strain (oregano minutiflora), wildcrafted, locally grown, the really good stuff... on a CRAZY SALE price!

125. True oil of oregano
Apparently, it is oregano composticum, and I have thymus capsicum, which lacks most of the medicinal qualities??
Does anyone know more about this??
I made the mistake of buying a cheap toothbrush, really roughed up my gums, and think I have a mild infection in the mouth.
I've also read conflicting information that thymol is the most potent/or most dangerous compound in the "true&q

It is a horrifying attack on free speech. Heck, most of the ads that target me on Facebook would also become illegal.

Freedom to choose what we put into our bodies, freedom to self-educate.... Of course, I'll be eating my tasty plants and maintain my merry way, but I think it's important to be aware of what's happening around us.

Steamed broccoli loses 11% of antioxidants.
Microwaved broccoli loses 97% of antioxidants.
I'm intuitively envisioning something like an exponential curve that illustrates the further we steer from nature, the worse our suffering may become.

Here were some of the articles on Natural News... Matt Bokos is apparently the owner of Adya Clarity... not sure of his affiliations. Raw Food World was the primary distributor.

I find that my caloric needs from entering the luteal phase to post-menstruation are double.
But I don't count calories... I just feel and listen. Going raw allowed me to really get in tune with my body and discern what "full" actually feels like. Likewise, if I'm craving a certain food (read: nutrient spectrum), I just go wild and go with it until my body seems to have had enough.

Can't stress the organic corn enough. BT toxin in GMO corn (read: all corn that is not organic) has been found to cause major organ damage/failure in lab animals. It can also make your own stomach start producing pesticides, too (NO joke!). Not to sound scary... just to please, please, urge you from the bottom of my heart to eat organic corn, for your own sake.

Ayn Rand? Nietzsche? (Neither of which I particularly enjoy!)
Sometimes, though, seeing powerful fiction at a young age plants a seed for a deeper understanding at a later date.
But, hopefully sooner than later.

That's horrible, Cafe Gratitude had the most AMAZING raw dessert books.
It's not hard to sub out the agave for liquid coconut nectar, soy sauce for Braggs/coconut aminos/whatever, if you're doing it yourself.

140. Re: wars of beliefs
It's not what you read, it's how you read it. Even amazing nuggets of truth can be gleaned by listening to Faux talking heads like Bill O'Reilly if you listen to an issue and notice 1) what is vehemently mocked/denied and 2) what is completely omitted.
I agree with Alex Jones more often than not, but he doesn't do much of anything to inspire hope (to say the least). But that's where raw food c

Toronto is a MECCA for raw food restaurants. My lifestyle there was amazing. Even corner stores sold fresh-squeezed orange juice by the liter (they squeeze it for you). SIGH.
There's a few raw food restaurants on the west coast, but they don't stack up to anything I was accustomed to back east. One I literally cannot even stand going into because the service is SO HORRIBLE, EVERY SINGLE TIME..

I have read something about SMALL amounts of coffee offering some protection against Alzheimer's (not sure by what mechanism?), but even the key with that is SMALL.
It's my job to (ha... ha) get everyone else coffee where I work, and they throw back cups and cups of it. Lots of people drink coffee to such an extreme, there's no way that can be good.

I know they are completely different, I was just suggesting TCM as another nice and very affordable alternative treatment, that does seem to have a bit more of science easily understood behind it.
Homeopathy is nice, but I'm not even sure I believe it enough to bet an infection on it. TCM, I'd bet on it any day for that.

I was reading on the Sunrise Tofu website that major retailers refuse to carry their products if they label it non-GMO.
The call for labeling is gaining momentum. Don't give up! And until then... read... labels... always.

Do you have a statistic for how frequently tomatoes are GMO? I heard they could be sometimes, like zucchini, but nowhere near the prevalence of corn or canola (more than 90%).
I get regular tomatoes organic, but then it just occurred to me... I'm not in the mood for an untimely sterilization. =\

Whole Foods is generally a ripoff, UNLESS there is a sale. Last summer I got organic cherries for $3.99/pound, and in BC, there was nowhere else that had them cheaper.
Off sale, though, they were twice that.
So I'd buy like nine bags at a time... bwahaha.

I always try to get organic, if not raw olives. I always rinse them before putting them in salad (if they're soaked in sea salt... but not a huge deal!).
They are the most mineral-dense fruit there is. Olives are MAGIC! <3
