I purchased some bionaturae organic apple nectar in glass bottles and I use them. I also have San Pellegrino bottles, too.

luv,
I understand some of the pain you went through as I released several growths through the time I have been modified raw vegan. I've never had a child so I'm not sure what labor pain is like. For me, the pain was intense for 3 days wherein I couldn't even sleep without doing Reiki on myself. My friend's wife who used to be an LPN asked me if I might not be having a miscarriage b/c it sounde

luuv, I'm not sure what you are doing with your "fast". When I fast, I do a 10-day distilled water fast.
The 10-days with only distilled water wasn't as healthy as combining the distilled water with Senna Leaf tea to help me regular.
I think what would've been best is lemon in distilled water along with the Senna Leaf tea if I had to do that one over again.

I'm not sure if it's a scam or not. I just know that Prill water is creamier and easier to swallow. I use RO water and then Prill it.

kiki, You will have to run it out but some things that should help: You can sweeten with your choice of sweetner.
1. Hot water with lemon as stated above.
2. Tea made with Feverfew for the coughing.
3. Tea made w/ 1/4 teaspoon of Fenugreek seeds for the congestion/mucus.
You might want to stop taking over-the-counter medicine as that just stops the symptoms and keeps the mucus from bein

186. Re: detox / flu
I went through bad detox, the flu for 2 weeks solid (plus other detox episodes). I had to just let the mucus be expelled. I drank tea made with 1/4 teaspoon of Fenugreek seeds and that helped expel the mucus. I kept drinking hot lemon with raw, unfiltered honey (or other raw sweetner you choose.) I also parasite zapped and got lots of rest.
The only way to slow detox is to eat some cooked

Drink distilled water with squeezed or juiced lemon, that will cut the mucus and alkalize the body more.
You can also parasite zap to heal quicker. You can take colloidal silver, too.
If you are very congested, drink a tea made out of 1/4 teaspoon of Fenugreek seeds throughout the day.
Lots of rest helps heal the body, too.
Getting rid of the mucus is one step closer to a healthy, al

Yes. You can read Arnold Ehret's book or you can look up on acid/alkaline charts. You'll find it in the acidic column which means that it is mucus forming.
You can test yourself. Eat some corn and you will find that you are more mucused up than if you ate something like watermelon which is alkaline.

ye, I had the purplish looking circles under my eyes, too. I discovered that I had low thyroid and now I take iodine and boost my thyroid. The purple is gone. The wrinkles disappear depending on how much sleep I get.
Try the iodine. You can get a natural source from Kelp. Blue-green algae is not the same a Kelp or Dulse.
Good luck. Therese

194. FYI on Spirulina
I just found out that Spirulina is a bacteria rather than a plant. I think that this would make it non-vegan.
When I was SAD, I tried Spirulina and had a severe nervous reaction to it. I just couldn't calm down and it made my heart race. As a modified raw vegan, I didn't take anything with Spirulina in it although many of the Superfood supplements have it in it.

Juicer: GreenStar or Solo Star II (I have the Solo Star II.) Some like Champion.
Blender: Vita-Mix or Blendtec/K-Tec (I have K-Tec Champ HP3.)
Dehydrator: Excalibur or SausageMaker Stainless Steel Dehydrator (I have the SausageMaker one on my wish list.) I currently use a cheap plastic one until I can buy the SausageMaker one.

Sun, Each appliance is for a distinct use. I purchased a Solo Star II which is good for wheat grass and regular juicing. A GreenStar is supposed to be the best juicer but it is about twice the price of the Solo Star II. Some like the Champion.
For soups, either a Vita-Mix or a K-Tec/Blendtec are the top of the line. Depends on whom you ask.

Hi KJ, I'm not in MN so cannot help you there but there are many good recipes here
I haven't had any issues with B12 but I'm not 100% raw, either. Some say that B12 is blown out of proportion.
You can warm your soups and you can re-define your "bread" definition. I've heard great things about the Onion bread that is a variation of Matt Amsden "Rawvolution". Many do no

I suggest the young coconut water straight. Drink 1-2 young coconuts and it should do the trick.
You might want to use sea salt if you crave salt and eat tomatoes. Celery is good, too. What about kelp or dulse? Also, you might want to incorporate more straight green juices in your diet like cilantro or wheat grass juice or chlorophyll.
Good luck. Therese

Geo, Take Serrapeptase on an empty stomach to reduce the inflammation in your back. Do the Sun Salutation and also do the Plow and the Dolphin asanas. These are a great help to me.
If you want to alkalize, drink distilled water with juiced lemon in it. Test your pH with strips. I like the pHIon strips.
Good luck. Therese

201. Re: pine nuts
Pine nuts (or seeds) can truly be raw. When I lived in South Korea, we used to pull them out of the pine cones and bite the seed off. They look a bit like maple seeds that have the translucent ends that allow them to fly. You can tell where the seed is b/c it is roundish there. This is the same with the pine seeds.

K, What are you using to wash your hair? Since going modified raw vegan (I still eat some cooked vegan), I have altered what I wash my hair with and the texture of my hair has changed, too.

Peanuts have arsenic and are high in mold. I would avoid. You can eat raw almond butter but it is high fat. You can eat raw tahini (sesame seed paste) but that is high in fat, too. Try raw hummus, that's delicious and a great alternative to the starch/protein/fat that you have in peanut butter.

I find that hot peppers are very delicious and beneficial. The mainstay of the Korean diet is based on pepper via Kimchee.
Of course, if one has stomach problems, it would be advisable to heal the stomach first before introducing hot peppers as that could irritate the situation.
