571. Eye Floaters?
They started in one of my eyes a couple months ago, basically whenever I look into the sun or bright light I start seeing tiny black specs for a few seconds. I think they do it when I get tired too.
I went to the eyedoctor today and they said my eyes are fine and that it's "normal" and I'll probably have it forever. Oh, but if I start seeing lightening bolts or bigger spots I have to

Nothing happened.
I soaked, rinsed a few times. I followed the directions that came with my Easy Sprouter. They don't look any different, there's nothng "sprouting" ect. They just did..nothing.

575. Re: Goji Berries?
Where did you order them from? That can have something to do with it. The brand that WholeFoods carries sucks.
I don't really like them and can't really explain the taste either.. Kind of rich and off. Harder and chewier than raisins. I've gotten used to them and don't mind them but it's not something I really enjoy eating. It doesn't have any "Berry" taste at all like I expected.

Rob, what do you think is wrong with them if they were "processed" with sea salt and herbs? Better than chemicals..
Anyway, these are the olives I bought..

I've had one small bunch that was at least yellow in my bedroom with the electric heater all day and that didn't change much at all.
Question - Is it considered ripe and good when there's NO or very little specs but a lot of dark brown rotted looking lines/spots?
I like using them when they're covered in specs but haven't seen that in a while. I have to come up with a "system" of

Hi Galileo,
I do both juicing and blending. In the first post it was juices I tried and the last one that came out gross was in the blender. I thought if I could like carrots and apple juice I could like it blended and hide a collard leaf in it. lol Apparently not even though I added water.
I'd just would like to get more variety in than carrots and apples.

Whether it's blended and has tiny hard pieces or you don't chew good enough, it comes out the way it went in. In my experience I've seen things come out hours after "eating" them; not a day later. So I don't see how it could hold up the digestive proccess. Seems to just pass right through.

Thanks Bryan.
I normally do/can eat a lot of fruit though. I used to eat an average of 4 apples a day and bannana based smoothies for breakfast everyday. I recently came off of a long fast and have been eating 95% raw since..just too many nuts, seeds (Soaked and dehydrated) and those raw/organic food bars. Binging is more my problem then SAD food, I can binge on grapes.

The past few days I've been eating too much fat and having a problem with not feeling full and cravings. I wanted to try 80/10/10 because some of what I read makes sense. I'm not sure I agree with eating so little fat, doesn't seem healthy but I know from the past that I tend to get "full" from smoothies and eating a lot of apples.

Cool so it's any heat that does it. I thought for that to work I'd need sunlight. I have a window the sun really hits but it's also freezing. I have an electric heater in my bedroom and it's like 90 in there. I'll try that tonight. Thanks =)

I love olives. I just bought some Manzanilla and Green Garlic Stuffed Olives from RawGuru and if you like the proccessed, store bought green olives you'll like them. I was suprised that they tasted exactly the same.. they were just..fresher. Store ones seem like they've been sitting in those jars for years. On the jar they say "raw, no heat proccessing and chemical free"

I have no social life. Recently I made a post on another board looking for someone that's into the same type of stuff as I am (not raw related) and had a couple good replies. I'm still hesitating on replying now that I know they're typical SADers. The thought of hanging out with someone and them talking about stopping for a burger or even some so called healthy food like Subway.. makes me cringe.

For the past 2 weeks I can't find any at the stores even yellow, they're all green. Even the non organic ones are dark yellow with ugly brown rotting spots. I've had some for the past 4 days now and they still don't even have spots on them.
I tried putting them in the microwave in a paper bag overnight and with an apple like i kept reading online and still nothing.

Juicin John - Negative attitude because I tried a few juices and gagged? LOL. Are you serious? People have different taste preferences.
Thanks Taylor - I'll try the Pinapple and Kale mix.
Today I tried bleinding 2 carrots, 1 apple and 1 collard leaf. That came out disgusting. But more because of the thick, chewy, foamy texture.

588. Re: 80/10/10?
I don't get the 80/10/10 thing either. Is it supposed to be a fruitarian diet? I was messing around with the ratios on fitday.com and basically to get the calories you need to eat mostly fruit and then some of the 10% fat comes from fruit.
I could eat about 2tbsp of pumpkin seeds a day..which seems too little.

I'm on day 42 of a fast. I didn't plan on going this long but on the day I was about to break I got my period. I never have an appetite with my period and I wanted to take advantage of the extra cleansing from that so I continued fasting. I was actually doing the master cleanse and then switched to juice fasting.

Before I was just throwing anything together and came up with some disgusting combos so tonight I finally tried some recipes. So far the only thing I didn't mind were 3 carrots and an apple.
This one made me gag. Being new to garlic, I probably shouldn't have used 2 cloves.

Oh and if you just want to get healthier in general, there's nothing wrong with blending raw fruits and vegetables and drinking "smoothies". A lot of us do that. You just can't do it during a fast.
Try one of the recipies on the main page or just make your own fruit smoothie for breakfast one day and see if you have anymore energy than usual.

If you're just interested in detoxing and being this new you might want to look into "The Master Cleanse" aka "The Lemonade Diet". It's how I started. It's easy you just have to squeeze lemmons or spend $5-$20 for a cheap citrus juicer that way you won't waste money on a juicer that you might not use again.

I'm always hearing Cali and NY in second.
I'm about 3hrs away from NYC. I wish I could just pick up and move there. Someday hopefully. What bothers me the most about here is the lack of good organic variety and anything I do find at WholeFoods is expensive. NY is expensive to live in I guess unless you want to live in the ghetto. So it wouldn't even solve my problem.

I agree with the poster who said "Everything is Poisiounus if you look hard enough". So true.
Mollasses aren't raw because it's the byproduct of boiled sugar. It's one of the good sweeteners, it's alkaline forming and high in calcium. And it tastes like crap. I mix a tbsp or 2 in with smoothies just for the alkaline and calcium. Doesn't taste so bad mixed with bannana and strawberrie
