I should mention:
I have perfect teeth. My mother-in-law is a dentist and I am planning on becoming one, and I get extra-thorough check-ups every 6 months.
I get a lot of calcium from broccoli, greens, and sesame seeds
Since going raw, my dentist has noticed that the calculus (tartar) has decreased to almost nothing on my teeth (meaning there is nothing to scrape off at my cleanings!!).

You should never brush your teeth after eating acidic fruits. It wears down the enamel and could irritate your gums and cause receeding.
Try rinsing with a paste made from baking soda (bicarbonate). This will neutralize the pH level in your mouth and cause the acid erosion to be minimal.
I follow a high sweet-fruit diet and I notice that many fruitarians have, well... crappy teeth. I think

The mesquite meal arrived today!! Rob you are such a doll
First I tried a spoonful and I immediately recognized the taste from some of shazzies bars. This is the stuff that leaves the aftertaste in my mouth. While I like the taste that comes out in the food, I need to brush my teeth after eating this because I can't stand the aftertaste.
However!! I made a frozen banana-spinach-cacao-mesq

F1-
maybe you can give me a tip. Do you train many raw ladies? What can I do to tone my lower tummy and my inner thighs? I don't really think I need to lose weight, but I can't understand how all the walking and stair climbing that I do isn't toning these parts of my body up.
There is no way around it, is there? I am just gonna have to do sit ups. (I hate them).

Hey guys!!
Raw bodies and alcohol do not go well together. Had too much wine and now I want to die...
Oh well, live and LEARN (I hope I learn this time...)
Well, today for breakfast I had 3 small-medium frozen bananas mixed with raw cacao in a smoothie (didn't have any spinach at home sadly), and now for my first lunch, I am having a peach and a nectarine... I never understood this- what is

If you are interested,
I converted my husband, his mother and his mother's boyfriend to eating raw on the weekend!!
(note: we did have wine... which, while technically raw, isn't normally a part of my diet. Also, Vix's parents had some bread... Baby steps though!!)
enjoy!

Hey guys!!
Just wanted to say that I am joining a new 80-10-10 trial/challenge!!
Check my posts there for my personal updates.
My conclusion for this trial is:
It works! I lost weight, my energy went up, and I find it ito be nicer with less fats. I still eat between 10-25% though, but it is a process.
I wish everyone here much luck, and if you'd like, come join the new challenge with m

This is sorta kinda my intro then:
Hello everyone!! And welcome to the 80-10-10!! I am from Sweden, and I have not read any book about 80-10-10 but I research a lot on the net (not SOO scientific, I know, but I have to wait for my library to order lots of things). My fat intake floats between 10-25%. I'm 95% raw in terms of calories.
Sometimes I really like some sesame seeds or olives. Haven'

I was thinking of ordering some raw vanoffe today, but I leave next friday for Canada. THink it would get to me by then, or should I wait until I get back?

Aha!! I get it now.
But, I still would have to return to the fact that Storm, who is not white, introduced me to the lifestyle- not any white government health program or organisation...
SO I guess, even with all their disadvantages, the black community of USA still have just as much access as a white Canadian-Swede.

"As I said, I am focusing on race not as a "thing" which is inherently part of human beings, but as a social construction which has historically been employed in the racist society of the US to privilege and disadvantage different racial groups. "

From what I found so far online from non-medical sources, just random surfing:
fruit juice = 15 minutes
fruits = up to 30 minutes, average is 20 minutes
Most veggies that are raw leave the stomach "quickly" as well, with the exception of spinach, but the more one eats spinach, the better the digestive tract becomes at digesting it.
I also came across this:

Khale-
blacks aren't as representative of raw in the states as whites? Am I missing something?
I always thought storm was one of the most dominant long-term raw advocates. It was his story that reached me first and introduced me living raw.
And as far as racial diversity goes, you ever notice that the mod of this forum isn't white either? I think there is a very diverse group of raw foodies

I know that it can take up to 3 days for the body to digest meat, on medicine packages of medicines that react with milk, it requires that 4 hours of digestion take place after milk consuption before one should take the pills, but through all my travels I have never known how long it takes for the good stuff to get digested...
So my question today is;

lately for lunch #1 and lunch #2, I have been starting with mono oranges, and then 2 hours later mono strawberries!
I am glad my body is naturally asking for these things, and not, for example, vegan pizza or a chocolate bar.

Something interesting about aspartame:
they taught us in university biochem about sugar replacements, etc, and it struck me as odd that they talked a whole deal about aspartame, but never mentioned any of its bad qualities... They said it was 200 times as sweet as sugar, so less calories were consumed, but when I asked my professor to talk about all the negatives effects, toxicity, how it can

While I definately know I won't be craving meat, I have a feeling I will crave yogurt covered raisins or almonds... I am gonna try to make raw ones myself with cacao butter and honey or dates, instead of the "yogurt" coating...
Anyone done this before?

I prefer to just use my handbag.

Just wanted to share that I think it is a shame that the movie theatres which don't allow outside food never have a fruit alternative.
