I purchased some from www.earthworkshealth.com after a relative started taking it internally and had great results. Within two weeks, my nails became much harder and stronger. I keep forgetting to take it, but my experience with it has been good. Also, during the summer, my dog got fleas and I rubbed it all over him for a natural treatment and it worked 100%---no drugs needed! It IS cockroach

I just got my blood test results. Everything seems in the "normal" range with exception that I tested positive for Candida and H.Pylori. I pretty much knew that I had the candida from symptoms...but the H. Pylori came as a big shock! I realize that there are many posts dealing with Candida, but how about H Pylori? I think I wound up with Candida from 3 rounds of antibiotics last y

I have been VERY strict with myself about proper combinations. I had only **Tried** the melon and 4 hours later the banana as a test to see if I could handle them and I can't. Otherwise I have had no fruit and ONLY vegetable meals (most raw, some steamed and pureed into soup)

Ok-----so I gave watermelon another try on Saturday morning and then ate 1 banana at noon. Well, since that afternoon--everything has gone haywire. I've blown up like a balloon and my digestive system has literally shut down. I had severe cramps and bloating on Sunday night and it has not gone away at all. I have been eating only raw and steamed veggies since then, some pureed--nothing else.

TroySantos---Thank you so much for the kind words. I am hanging in there but have resorted to much of my day being filled with hot pureed steamed cauliflower "soups" and steamed summer squash since it seems to be easiest on my digestive system. I still eat raw veggies before every meal. I have still not have carbs and have not tried fruit again since my last post about that experienc

Thank you all for your help and input. I do not eat a lot of fat at all. Never more than 1/2 avocado a day and that is pretty much the ONLY fat that I eat. I do not eat nuts or oils at this time as I was trying to really clean out my system and heal whatever is going wrong. I have not had any kind of bread for atleast a month now and yes, I think the cravings are subsiding. I really was tr

I used to eat the Ezekial bread, which I was very happy with before I was advised not to eat any grains. Although I do believe this is the right "way" to be eating (no grains) I am really struggling with it and my digestive system doesn't seem to agree with grains. I will give it a try but after the horrendously painful night I had last night---I might wait a few days before trying so

Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I ate one banana this morning (to experiment) and I am DYING in severe pain, cramps and bloating now. Fruit is like my worst enemy at the moment. It's really bad. I was advised not to consume ANY grains due to these problems I am facing, but jumping from (slightly healthier) SAD to 100% veg. in 3 weeks has been very tough on me. I stare longingly at c

I've been sticking to almost 100% raw (besides some steamed veggies and pureed veg. soups--but today as I was making toast for my SAD spouse, I almost broke down and ate some bread! Ahhhhhh......it feels like I will NEVER stop the cravings for carbs! What did (or do) you eat to satiate the desires for bread? To be clear, I've been eating only veggies (including avocados) for the past 3 weeks s

I am not eating any cooked starches at all. Have been on almost 100% veg for 2 weeks. (90% raw) When I have tried eating fruit, I have horrible stomach pains after a few hours. It's definitely an internal thing rather than just bad surface breath or something coming from in my mouth. It feels deep. I drink green juice every morning--atleast 30 oz.

I start every morning with greens juiced in a juicer and these digest VERY quickly. I use Kale, red swiss chard (my favorite) or even beet greens, celery, cucumber, one whole lemon and slices of fresh ginger. To that I add some stevia at times. No digestion problems and I usually eat an hour or so after that, but could eat sooner if I was hungry.

I've been eating only vegetables, some steamed or boiled for dinner. No nuts, seeds or grains. Very very little fruit, only in the AM. Only fat source has been avocado. But when I wake up, my breath is SO bad! Has anyone experienced this? I can not understand it. I have never been one to have bad breath--even when I used to eat terribly!

Thank you so much for your input and experience. Yes, my digestive system has been more than abused and I'm sure will take a long time to calm down. The last time I was able to break free from the disorder I last nearly one year (non-vegetarian but no refined foods, white sugar/flour etc) but gave up due to constant stomach pains. I feel much better this around and hope I can maintain. I am d

I understand about the colonics but the raw veggies advice can't be bad and I have not had anything like the pains I was previously experiencing. I am eating a TON of fiber. I am eating alot in quantity with raw veggies all day. I ate 1 cup of blueberries before I stopped eating fruit and got horrible stomach pain from those.

I am new to raw foods and having just quit 12 years of bulimia about 2 weeks ago, you can imagine that with all of the changes my body is undergoing it's probably close to a state of shock. Because of the horrible stomach cramps that I go through after eating, a nutritionist recommended juicing all morning (veg only) and then avoiding all acidic foods, all fruit, all nuts and all grains!
