Thanks guys !
Banana who, if i didn't battle fat then I would just eat it all day and I would be 400 plus pounds like before. If we don't find balance in our lives we won't be balanced. Some cravings are natural and fit in to this modern lifestyle. Other cravings are not good or useful in this modern environment, like fat cravings. I am choosing to eat the amount of fat my body needs, a

I am a chef in my own light so i don't generally have any issues making foods. We almost never look up anything at all. I recommend using lots of recipes in the beginning, so later you can become good at making your own foods, without recipes. Raw food is less about recipes, as it is about just balancing the flavor of the food you are making. Everyone can benefit from low low fat. if you are

they say they only steam them long enough so that the outside of the nut gets cleaned. why would they say they are sprouted if they are steamed?

YES YES YES ! this will work for you. just don't make the smoothies too high glycemic level. for instance use more berries and less banana. if you put fat in your smoothies then you are NOT going to reap the full detoxing benefit from drinking them. FAT FREE for now, then later you can enjoy mildly fatty substances. to fully detox and regenerate life force and lose weight or whatever, to refr

yes, low fat is awesome, no fat is horrible. my family is 100% raw vegan. me, my partner and my 4 children all happy and very healthy. they need lots of greens or they will become malnourished. Ideally everyday they should have green smoothie with greens, lots of fruit and hemp seeds or flax seeds.lots of fruit is a great basis for a raw diet. then lots of greens in juice or smoothie form.

marinated veggies are definitely not as beneficial as lactic acid style fermented veggies, but they are healthy and yummy no less. The vinegar only preserves the veggies, and of course makes them softer and more yummy! But yes, I make refrigerator pickles all the time using seasonings, vinegar, water, plus a lil syrup. then i let em soak on the counter over night, then I refrigerate them.they

all we are made up of is fat, bone, muscle(for my intent and purpose).
obviously we are lots of other things too like water mainly, but I am explaining the idea that we are supposed to have fat or muscle on us. so sure, if you want to gain fat then mix fats and sugars all the time. If you have insulin loose in your blood you won't metabolize fats during that time. so it sticks to our thighs!

I wasn't saying anyone else should use ganja the way I did, even though it works wonders and also kills cancer cells! But, all I was promoting is the use of something, if it helps them day to day cope with the anxiety, but always remember it is a temporary band aid unless we remove the stressor and healthen the body up.

11. Re: Tired
try no fat in the morning. Do your smoothies have any fat in them?? maybe if they have zero fat maybe you need a little more? also, people tend to underestimate the amount of food they need on raw. for instance i eat piles of fruit everyday. more than people think is "right". eat more, eat less fat. fat is over rated, and hard to digest. more greens, more greens high in b vitami

Let me clarify my stance even more. I agree with everyone about trying all the methods. My stance with nutrition is based on food for sure, but as in my situation as well I needed to use medicines while I was on my path towards health balance. I would use powerful herbs to reduce my anxiety, and mood elevators. Marijuana is definitely my favorite mood elevator. I live in california and have a

if you are medicating, then you are missing the higher point. something is imbalanced, you need to detox serious style or else otherwise why would anything change within yourself. Money is meaningless, this and that drama are temporary. It would seem that everyone has missed my important 1 point. to cure the anxiety, one must go to the very root.....which is not drama in life, but within our

So I have been doing extremely well on the 80/10/10 style diet. I have been nearly 98% fat free for 2.5 months. I am feeling amazing. the only fat i eat is enough to keep me healthy and smart. I will eat maybe 1/2 tsp of hemp seeds every other day in a smoothie. I have lost all my salt weight, and the fat is going away that I was still harboring.!!!

yes yes, sounds like a combination of over cleaning and harsh chemicals as in pure baking soda. Too harsh of a pH in your mouth will mess up the bacteria living on the surface of the teeth. So first step is to stop worrying as this often makes us do TOO much. Keep in mind, none of the rest of us, who have been drinking smoothies gets any teeth stain. Therefore you must realize its not the gre

i pretty much LIVED on green smoothie for the first year of me being raw. I lost 150 pounds that first year(give or take). to date I have lost 230 pounds, and yes, green smoothie is the staple of life. Because anything can be blended up, therefore yes, you can live on green smoothies. but yes, you will have jaw muscle atrophy if you don't make sure and chew on something every day or 2. as in a

i enjoy lentil sprouts only in crackers generally. they are weird tasting plain to me, but I use them as the crunchy substance mixed with veggie pulp to make crackers or kale chip batter. it makes a wonderful low fat crunch base that ends up tasting a lot like mexican burrito, especially if you season it as such. all that weird flavor evaporates out in the drying process!

In my experience trader joes workers are statistically the fastest workers of any grocery company I have ever seen. Not all workers at open minded stores act like "stoners". the produce at TJ's is garbage, just like the stuff at aldi. These are MEGA corp companies that use the lowest grade of factory farming to produce foods. Whole foods at least works with most of there producers t

anybody new to raw is going to go through detox syptoms for a while. as in you will feel like you are on chemotherapy even if you have no diseases at all! also, what I notice is that as you incorporated more fat into your diet your bad symptoms started again. This may be connected to the fact that fats are blocking of detoxing, and in general fats are overrated by people as they are very addic

I eat fruit salad.....I eat HUGE fruit salads if I am craving a full feeling. I mean big, like 7 bananas, 5-8 satsuma oranges, 2 -4 mangoes, berries, kiwi, more blood oranges, or navel oranges, grapes if organic is in season. I eat about a half gallon of fruit salad in a sitting. Usually no more than 1 of those per day. I will make celery juice and other veggie juices and make a soup `out of it

right now I am detoxing again! I am drinking fresh juices, green smoothies, and fruit. along with supplements like vitamineral green pills, wheatgrass pills, chlorella. I don't eat any fat except for about a quater tsp of hemp seeds in a smoothie every few days to help keep my brain healthy. But if you are trying to lose weight. you gotta quit the fat for a little while. its a detox secret.

i would never sprinkle on it anything! sodium builds up in our cells and makes them droopy and saggy as we age, so salt effectively makes us older....and we retain water, hence the puffiness. i quit salt about a month ago and I feel way better! we were just eating bags and bags of it over time. if you eat a full healthy diet with vegetables and fruits and smoothies and juices and salads...you

very good points storm. if you stick with a high alkalyzing diet your teeth and bones will stop degenerating. when you eat low carb, you are malnourishing yourself. You gotta focus on greens greens green juices, green smoothies, hemp seeds, and sesame and chia. in time you will probably be able to eat more things. but your body will go through much detoxing first.

the big question is what type of water is it? does it have any minerals/electrolytes? is it tap water? is it reverse osmosis filtered water from the store? this is too much water if the water is lacking in proper mineral levels as it will sap your body of minerals. If you are drinking tap water your minerals are fine, but you are steadily poisoning yourself with toxins. If you are drinking
