what kind of veggies are you eating?
i've been raw for almost a month and go to the bathroom after almost every meal (which i think is a great indication of how my metablism has speeded up.

when starting raw, i went to trader joes and got almonds, some unsweetened dried fruits, raw cashews and a whole lot of organic produce. once i was raw for three weeks, i decided it was time to start investing in some serious raw food essentials and got a giant tin of cold pressed olive oil, a ton of almonds, raw honey and more items in bulk. in my opinion, start off small and see how it goes.

thanks for all the responses. i will start journaling what i eat. i don't think dehydration is a problem tho because since i've been eating raw, i've yet to feel thirsty, despite that i drink about 2 liters of water a day.
maybe i need to lay off the wine for a bit.

I also will supplement this with either a lar

yup they're raw...but not organic...which i am ok with since i am a public school teacher and will never pass up on said deal
if you get to the general area, ask anyone for a store called subzi mandi...there is another grocery store next to it as well that is equally inexpensive. both stores have a good dried fruit nut selection and very reasonably priced produce.

i made cashew butter with coconut water and it came out amazing...much lighter and fluffier than with oil, a less fatty. i wonder if it would come out the same with almond milk.

47. Re: bar snacks
wait...how can bar snacks (french fries/salted roasted peanuts/pretzels/and greasy friend unvegan food etc) be the same as trail mix?
here's my trail mix recipe:
dried unsulphere apricots
dried organic unsweetended raisins
raw almonds
raw cashews
raw sunflower seeds

hi sorry i deleted the post because i realized...after further scrutiny of the books that she (natalia rose) endorses non-vegan food as well...so i figured it didn't belong on the forum. however, what i was intrigued about was her ideas on combining different fruit groups and waiting between eating them...i.e don't eat fruit 30-40 minutes before or after a meal that includes grains/veggies becaus

55. Re: Dried Fruits
i am also a new raw foodie...and i've been going to trader joes to stock up on dried fruits...i always check the label and only buy the dried fruits that only have the fruit as ingredients, no added sugar (i'm weening myself off of mont morency cherries because they have sugar)...i've been avoiding apricots with sulpher dioxide (keeps them unnaturally orange and plump)...the unsulphered ones are

it doesn't say that it's pasturized, i got it at my local health food store. i'm not a huge fan of it, but i like to use it in my smoothies instead of filtered water for added nutrition...any thoughts on freezing?

I totally understand that...but I don't think I was attacking anybody's dietary/lifestyle choices tho...and if that's what I came across as doing, that wasn't my intention
On another note...is it possible to start another forum that is geared towards transitional raw foodists?

The name of this forum is raw food support...which i take to mean that people are here to support/assist/advise people through their journey/transition into a healthier/better lifestyle. It was just a question, I didn't mean to offend anyone and arugula, I am aware that this is a vegan forum, but thanks for the reminder!...i wanted to know what some people's opinions were on Alt and her lifestyle

59. Out on a limb
Ok: So I was leafing through Carol Alt's book on raw cuisine and she believes that cheeses made out of raw milk are acceptable in a raw food diet. For the sake of gradually weaning myself off of cooked food and to try and curb my cravings for potato chips, I've been keeping a small hunk of blue and parm around...any thoughts on this?
