Check out for exotic fruit, many of which can be grown in the cooler climes.
The Pawpaw, or the northern banana, is of special interest. It has a creamy white custardy flesh. It is a cold hardy member of the tropical Custard Apple Family (sweetsop, soursop, and cherimoya) that is native to the US. It can be grown even in Canada.

454. Re: Physics Fun
Richard Feynman, a Nobel laureate in physics, wrote quite a few fun books for the layman. I liked You've Got to Be Kidding Mr. Feynman and on a more serious note QED, a book that gives a good intuitive grasp of quantum electrodynamics.

The substances that the seed discards into the soak water are dormancy chemicals that it no longer needs and metabolic waste products. Don't drink it. Use it to water your plants.

Adding grass juice will prevent many problems, as it has the nutrition and healing energies that you can not get from fruit alone.

462. Re: Nightshade
All green fruit is poisonous to some extent. This may be particularly important with tomatoes. And any commercial tomato is most likely too green, and hence poisonous. The only tomatoes I consider edible are home grown, fully ripened on the vine ones.

For a persimmon to be ripe all the inside must be clear, any cloudy portions are unripe and bitter. After finding that persimmons that have been cut open and left out to ripen, not only ripened just fine but actually had improved flavor, I now cut open all of them and then let them ripen exposed to the air. They will form a dry film as the exposed inside dries and you can easily see if it is al

464. Re: Fruitarian
The spaceyness one might feel is in my experience an outright symptom of starvation. While greens are in general helpful; many need grass juice to fully supply the needed nutrition and end the spacey feeling. As balance is brought to the digestive system and body the need for grass fades.

With the addition of grass juice (wheat or wild) to the fruit cleanse, it can be extended for a very long time, perhaps forever. A few other vegetable juices can also help.

Dr Bernard Jensen, who developed Iridology, was a great believer in raw goat milk, especially clabbered. Clabbered milk is a cultured milk like buttermilk. To clabber your raw milk just add a couple of tablespoons of buttermilk to it and let sit overnite at room temperature. At 4 - 8 oz per day clabbered raw milk can be a valuable transition food. Try it with 90% fruit and 10% vegetable juices

When I went to Optimum Health Institute in the San Diego area they served a very delicious winter squash grated. After some googling I found this:
This is a package of Winter Sunshine Squash seed that contains 30 seeds. Beautiful, bright red-orange squash out in the garden and on the plate! String less, orange flesh has a sweet, nutty flavor great for baking. Also good raw, like carrot st

In the apples I have had the clear spots were most definitely not fermentation. They were very healthy parts of very good firm apples, particularly good apples. Anaken must have found something different.

Those clear spots are sugar spots, areas of high sugar make them clear. IMO it is the best of apples that have them.

Djatchy, You're right about most rejuvelac but if you use the following it should turn out well:
For 1000's of years people have been making fermented drinks from grains. Most often leading to beer. But after 1 or 2 days of fermentation the weak beer is rejuvelac, rich in enzymes, nutrients, and beneficial microflora. Many of the traditional beer making principles when applied to make rejuvel

One of the main benefits of wheat grass is in the nutrition it provides, esp. the amino acids (protein) that is often needed when transitioning to raw. It also aids in cleansing action in that it kills many deleterious organisms outright. Any way you can get it would be good, fresh, frozen, dried or even implanted. Grass helps in establishing the intestinal flora, indirectly, by its cleansing

When I took animal nutrition at Humboldt State University it was emphasized how critically important the balance of the internal microflora was in digestion for the grazing animal. These beneficial bacteria and a few other organisms help not only in the breakdown of the food but can create needed nutrients like amino acids. When they are not in the right balance the vegetarian animal can starve

Tantra yoga has 2 meditations, one on light and the other on dark, that are both beautiful. Everyone is familiar with the beauty of light but the dark can be beautiful too. The velvet black forms of trees against a starry sky as I was hiking the crest of the Sierra on a star lit night were sublimely beautiful. Check out meditations #75 and #76:

As incongruous as it may seem the grizzly bears of Denali National Park eat a diet of interest to both the vegan and fruitarian. In his book The Grizzlies of Mount McKinley, Adolph Murie gives an illuminating account of his research. First the bears hibernate for 5-6 months, from late October to April, a period of complete fasting.

The whole coconut with its husk on is a fruit under the botanical definition which doesn't care if the outer fruit part is edible or not. The part that makes the coconut a fruit under the botanical definition is the husk. Without the husk it is just a seed; as a peach without the outer sweet flesh is just a seed, the peach pit. The coconut one eats is the seed and it is not a fruit.

CINDY LOUPER TIME AFTER TIME LYRICS
Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
and think of you
caught up in circles confusion--
is nothing new
Flashback--warm nights--
almost left behind
suitcases of memories,

sometimes you picture me--
I'm walking too far ahead
you're calling to me, I can't hear
what you've said--
Then you say--go slow--
I fall behind--

BMI isn't mathematically sound. The volume (and hence the weight) of any object (when the proportions are kept exactly the same) will increase by the third power of its height (height x height x height). In the BMI however they only use a square of the height (height x height). The BMI, by this, is saying that short people should be rotund and tall people should be slim.
