Juicing can be used to break cell walls to extract more nutrients from food.
Blending has the same effect without disposing of the plant fibers.

35. Re: Dry Hair
It is true that detergents, such as shampoo, remove oil. As a result, hair can become dry.
If this is a factor, it may be worth experimenting with shampooing less or less frequently.

Sprouting adds a tremendous amount of vitality to a seed.
In relation to food combining, I would almost consider all sprouts to combine as vegetables. The seed may combine as a grain, legume, nut or whatever. Sprouting changes the biochemistry, such that the digestive system recognizes the sprouted seed more like a vegetable.

Good questions, guys.

If those cells have a good quality supply of certain oils which they utilize, then the cells will be better able to perform their normal cellular f

As mentioned earlier (and to clarify), oils and fatty acids cannot coat small molecules (e.g. sugar, insulin) in a water solution, e.g. blood.
This is simply the way biochemistry works. Oils are hydrophobic.
It is possible, however, for oils to coat larger structures, such as receptor sites, assuming that the receptor site will welcome a hydrophobic molecule.
For this to occur, the oils s

It is important to understand the biology of hair.
Hair is dead.
However, it grows from living cells at the hair follicle.
These cells turn over and are replaced by new cells.
If your body is increasing in health and vitality, then these cells are replaced by new, more healthy cells.
Then, hair growth improves. Skin health also improves. The biology is very similar.

I think that these ideas encapsulate the general thought patterns.
I am also saddened to see unnecessary in-fighting. I believe, though, that everyone will recognize in their own time that everything is connected.

I urge you to remember that you are becoming a beacon of light and inspiration to those around you. It may not be easy to have that awareness. The people whose lives you are touching will generally not tell you until years later.

A good option might be to block all sunlight.
This will kill the light-dependent plants in that area.
To block the sunlight, I would use large cardboard boxes, which decompose and feed carbon into the soil and also are great food for the soil microbes.
I would then cover the cardboard with more stuff, such as a layer of soil, compost and at least an inch of mulch, such as wood chips.

It sounds like you have been discovering what works well for you.
As long as your workouts are less than four hours, you are probably OK.

I have been developing and testing a raw sports gel.
I want to mention that I consume only water during low intensity workouts less than 90 minutes.
A half marathon is just a little more than that. So I like to consume some calories during a 21K run.

Thanks for the inspiration.
Motivation is helpful for those who exercise very little and would like to do more.
IMO, this includes the majority of the population here in USA.
There is a large minority, though, who over-stress their bodies during intense workouts, often with an insufficient endurance base.

Skin prick testing is not absolute, since dermal reaction is not the same as GI reaction. Nonetheless, skin prick testing is probably accurate enough for this purpose, and it is non-invasive and inexpensive.
You can also test your GI reaction for yourself.
You can research the protocol, but here are simplified guidelines.

I have noticed reduced mucus as well as improved intestinal function as a result of my ecoaerobic raw food process.
I would never ignore signals from the body, but I might try to re-interpret them.
How do you know that the reaction is elevated IgE specific to those foods?
Unless a specific assay has identified that, I might be skeptical.
Could your reactions be detox symptoms?
