I think that more women than men are likely to make the choice to go vegan for health or conscious reasons. I think once vegan though, it's just as easy for a man, physiologically to be vegan as it is for a woman!

I'd recommend fasting or juicing for a few days. You will appreciate all the solid fruits and vegetables that you eat thereafter!

I have a 40oz Kleen Kanteen. It's okay to carry around. The lid I got with it has a ring in it, so you can hold it with a finger through the ring.
To be honest though, I don't use it that often. After buying it, I discovered the joys of reusing glass bottles. We buy 1 gallon sparkling water in glass bottles, and reuse them until they wont come clean anymore... then recycle. This way I don't h

186. Re: Water Fast
I broke my fast with two organic oranges juiced at 6:30 this morning.
My goal today is to mono fruit eat. Yesterday was really hard. I think I will try water fasting one day a week, perhaps then I can better appreciate what I eat when I do eat. Gradually I hope to increase that to 2 days, than 3 days, etc. I would love to do a water fast for 10 days. Yesterday I read about how you should not go

I am starting a water fast today. I last ate yesterday at 10pm. Looking forward to increased energy, mental clarity, and an increase in freedom from addictions to food!

Today is day 8 of my fast, I have completed 7 days of Orange Juice already. Last night I slept for 8 hours for the first time in months, so that felt good. My skin is clearing up and I've shed 5 pounds. I have been making more of an effort to drink ample amounts of water over the last day and a half. I am considering adding in one daily glass of leafy green veggie juice, as wonderful as I am star

Well I did survive last night! And am drinking my Orange Juice this morning. Worst part is I only got 4 hours sleep lat night 10-midnight then 5-7am. Too bad I have to go to work or I could have kept sleeping.
For the record I am NOT doing intense cardio, just light exercise aka walking which I have read is healthy while fasting.
I have done a lot of reading on fasting, and done several 3 day

Hi Everyone,
I am doing a 14 day freshly squeezed organic orange juice fast. Today is the end of 6 full days. Tonight I started feeling negative side effects: minor dizzyness, lightheadeness, and numbness/tingling in my head. Also my legs felt very heavy. I was sitting on the couch and lay down and slept for 2-3 hours. Now I feel better all those still quite light headed.
I am just getting

Try putting apple cider vinegar in a bottle and storing near your fruit. They fly in (can't fly back out) and drown.

Maybe try dehydrating crackers and other treats.
Also nuts and dehydrate your own fruit and make fruit leather!! Dried pineapple is delicious, coconut is great.
Do you have a fridge where you are going, if so, you have many more options. Make a salad dressing, and bring veggies and sprouts, by the time you run out of veggies your sprouts should be ready. Lots of fruit / veggies last a long

196. Re: Ezekiel Bread
I'm pretty sure Bryan is correct.
I believe manna bread is closer to being raw than ezekial, but still is heated beyond a raw temperature.
If you want raw bread you have to make your own, or try making raw crackers.
Also you can use all sorts of fresh veggies for wraps rather than bread... Cabbage, Kale, Vine leaves, Romaine.

I am trying to start. I keep trying!!! But this time I've been doing good for 4 days!
Still have cravings, and I feel as though I am overeating at night. I really want to do a mono fast. One food only for a few days. Lately I can't get enough watermelon so I think I may try eating just watermelon's for a few days.

I had only oranges and freeshly squeezed orange juice for 2 weeks shortly after beginning raw last year. It was the best I've ever felt. I wish that I was strong/ dedicated enough to try this again.

Sunshine79, thank you for the info. I found the Zeolite on the website you mentioned. How do you use it, do you water it down and rinse or apply directly to teeth, or what? I also found the other thread and the website www.mizar5.com on letting teeth heal themselves... I am going to read it right away.
KelBel, thanks for sharing your story! Maybe I should follow your lead.

Freezing is when they give you a needle so that you can't feel it when they work on giving you the filling... standard practice in Canada.
That is a good idea Jgunn.
I am trying to eat 80/10/10... have had dehydrated and some dried fruit while transitioning.
Prior to going raw 10 months ago I was vegan for several years... but not a healthy vegan I ate plenty of sugar.

What is Zeolite NCD? Where do you buy it from?
My cavities don't hurt, except for when the dentist was scraping my teeth. One tooth apparently has 3 fillings already one of which is about to fall off and that tooth apparently has a hole in it.

I live in a small town in Canada, it is freezing here, and the growing season is two months at best... Not to mention we are the 'beef province.' I am HOPING to move to Australia, Hawaii, or California in the near future.

203. Dentist
I just went to the dentist for the first time in 5 years... and have 10 cavities.
Also I was questioned by the dentist (a new one, as I've moved) as to why I have white fillings and not all silver... I said because they are healthier and she said that is not true, both are unhealthy and that the white one's don't last as long and the list of chemicals they contain that leak out is very extensive

Hi Nan,
I often eat a banana at bedtime if I can't sleep. It's a filling, satisfying, lowfat, raw option!

I am aspiring to Bryan's diet. It's only been 4 days of 80/10/10 and already I feel better, more energy, more motivation, no cravings for fat or sweets (other than fruit).
I know that high fruit, low fat and mono meals will be the best for me... I think I've known it nearly since I began raw, but I wasn't ready, now the more I head that way the better I feel.

Funny, I just started 80-10-10 and tracking via nutri-diary.
I feel like I eat TONS comparred to some. Don't know if I'm overeatting or if my body's adjusting to low fat.
Today I ate:
4 cups Juice (2 LG grapefruits, 1/2 orange, 1/2 lemon, 2 rings worth of pineapple)
3 bananas
2 apples
3 more bananas
1/2 head of cauliflower
plan to have about 8 stocks of celery once my hubby arrives

I had the flu last week.
It may have been the raw potluck I went to on Sunday, or the insaneness of being a banker at the end of the RSP season. But I woke up at 2am last Tuesday morning so nausious I couldn't even roll over. I physically 'got' sick for the first time in 10 years or so, aside from when I used to drink 5ish years ago.
Anyways, I didn't eat at all for 2 days. I'd been eating a

Thanks Bryan, I did just reread Uma's thread on mono eating, and now I know that I should give it a try.
Uma, do you eat only solids when mono eating, or do you ever drink juice instead?
I'm a juice fan, it's easiest to drink while I am at work. I usually drink Orange juice at around 11, then another juice, either veggie, or fruit or fruit followed with veggie at 3
