Hey noff !! I love dates, too - soooo sweet and sooo good Keep practicing the Reiki - self treat every day . Sometimes it takes a while before you really feel it. That's why it's good to go to some Reiki shares - so you can get some feedback. Sometimes you won't feel anything - but the recipient will feel alot !! Practice, practice, practice - it will get stronger each time you do .

Talk to your doc - s/he may want to start you on some B12 shots - just depends on how severe it is - s/he may or may not recommend supplementation - depends on whether or not you do the shots. Definitely talk to the doc to find the best route to go.

No more cravings !!! Hoooorrraaayyy !!!!!

Adrenal fatigue isn't caused by the raw diet - it is caused by stress. When you are under constant stress your adrenal glands continually secrete the fight/flight hormones - your body wasn't designed to have these hormones secreted continually. Reducing stress and doing all the other things I listed above can help rebalance the cortisol/DHEA in your system so that your adrenals can rest, recover

A good book to look into for this is Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom, by Dr. Christiane Northrup - you can probably find it at your library - there is a section on pages 529 - 531 for restoring adrenal function.
Basically it says - reduce stress - when you find yourself thinking stressful thoughts - stop and focus on something that allows you to feel unconditional love or appreciation - hold th

Watermelon is also high in iron. Getting iron is not too much of a problem. There are different kinds of anemia though - the one raw foodies need to keep in mind is B12 deficiency anemia - the body stores about a 5-6 year supply of B12, but after that you may need to supplement.

I did more searching around today, since I was not happy with the 80/10/10 plan and found a plan specific for raw bodybuilding - read through it and I am much happier with it just from reading it - it is higher in veggies and fats and emphasizes the foods you need to get in to include the nutrients specific for bodybuilding.
The plan I downloaded is free - but has many references to other p

Oh Yum Made a smoothie this morning with the Thai coconut, strawberries and frozen bananas - definitely yummy - but way too much work LOL - I can see making one of these as a treat once in awhile - but takes too long to make on a daily basis LOL . I don't have a cleaver so I used a hacksaw to saw off the top of the coconut Worked quite well, actually . Once I had a slit in the top I let all

I just started raw a little over a month ago - I lost about 6 pounds the first 2 weeks eating mostly veggies, nuts, seeds, and small amounts of fruit. I really didn't know what my nutrient values were until I plugged it in to nutridiary one day to see what it was - turns out it was about 45% fat from all the nuts and seeds and avocados, 45% carbs and 10% protein.
Since I wanted to get back
