My mom has MS, so of course this post caught my interest. She did a lot of herbal supplements as well as eliminating wheat, gluten and sugars and it really helped her, she said she noticed an improvement. I wish she would do raw or something more drastic, but she doesn't listen to me, you know how stubborn old people can be? Haha, you know? Before my mom tried naturopathy, the doctor put her on a

I definitely can tell the difference in taste between organic and non-organic, but I usually just go for the nons because they're half the price and they also fall into the "least contaminated" category. You know about the "dirty dozen" of produce, right? These are the ones to stay away from...

I can totally relate with what you're going through... I've recently transitioned to raw foods, and I can tell you, the first few days is the hardest because you have to stay with it without seeing IMMEDIATE results. I'm impatient with myself, so this was really hard for me. You have to ignore the numbers on the scale and the reflection in the mirror. Keep your game face on, stay 100% positive an

Hey Tristani,
I'm still new to raw foods myself, so I probably don't have the greatest advice... haha... but I notice that I feel really great though, the longer I do it. I keep in mind that I'm doing this for my health, and that I can quit anytime I want to, but I am CHOOSING to do this, because I look forward to a better quality of life.
My biggest tip would probably be: "Prevent yo

I've heard that brushing your teeth right after eating certain fruits like strawberries and citrus fruits may be harmful to your tooth enamel. I think it's a good idea to wait a while before brushing after eating these. This might explain the tooth trouble for some people...

I can totally relate to the sugar addiction, I just wanted to share my experience, perhaps my story is a bit different but here it is anyway...
I come from a family history of eating disorders/addiction, diabetes, and severe depression/suicide. I'm the only one in my family who isn't on meds, and who sees the connection between sugar addiction and chemicals in the brain.

Thanks Macfly!
That's really interesting that you've experienced it as well. I'm glad to know it's not entirely uncommon, and perhaps I'm not a such a freak afterall.
I have heard about tonsilloliths, though I've never came into contact with any personally. I'm intrigued... is there a simple way to dig them out, or is it pretty much an endless game of aimless Q-tipping? Anyhow, perhaps on

Hi Everyone! I'm new to raw foods, I've been doing it for only a week, but I've had a rather amazing awakening to how wonderful and healing they are for the body. I plan on making it a permanent part of my lifestyle, because I feel so much better. I have discovered many benefits like my skin clearing up, better circulation, loss of body fat, and better flexibility. I did experience some headac
