hello, I read here that seasonings like salts, garlic, onions, ect are toxic and bad for digestion. I was wondering if I could get a list of foods that would fall under these toxic categories? I'd really like a clean body. it's important to me to feel clean and freshfull. i'm interested in why these things are bad, and I'm also curious if hot peppers or lemons or ginger would fall

393. Re: detox issue---fatigue---how long?

how much greens and fat do u eat? Do u drink green juice at all? I usually feel fatigue if i either eat too much fat, not enough fat, not enough greens, or too many sugarie fruits. yoga and rebounding raise my energy levels, too. every body is different. good luck.

394. Re: Raw milk maker

eating raw beans is bad because they contain enzyme inhibitors. the only way to reverse the effect of enzyme inhibitors is to cook or sprout the bean. Cooking beans get rid of the enzyme inhibitors, but also the enzymes. I read that in "Rawsome" by Brigette Mars.

395. Re: Juicers, what do you own?

i have an omega 8003, and i am very happy with it. it's very good for juicing greens. You can also make nut butters and ice creams and baby foods, and stuff like that. oh, and wheatgrass. I believe this is primarily a greens juicer. I think there is a faq on this site that helps u pick out the best juicer suited for your needs.

396. Re: too much fruit

if u don't like veggies that much, but want to eat them anyway, maybe make some green smoothies. lemons and apples tend to get the bitterness out of greens. good luck.

one thing that will help u out a lot is if u do it with a friend, or better yet a family member, or better yet someone u live with. this is a whole lifestyle change, so it's really cool to have someone to share it with. I think it helps so much because i think everyone can use more support especially with major life changes. It seems a little odd to consider changing one's diet a major lif

408. what is mono eating?

I've heard people talk about this and I always hear good things. What is it? Judging by the name, and what I have heard I am going to assume it involves the eating of only one fruit? How does one live a mono lifestyle? do u even eat greens plain? thanks.

409. Re: I tried 3 juice recipies tonight and 2 were gross

I like to put greens in for a juice like kale, cabbage, parsley, collards, chard, or anything like that, and juice it with carrots, celery, an apple, and orange juice. I like how the apple masks the bitterness in the greens, and how the celery and carrot taste together.

How come you feel better when you are on fruit then on greens? Do you ever worry about your calcium intake? (obviously not if you feel really good on fruits) how about your teeth? How does eating only fruits work? I mean, I understand you only eat fruit, but how do you get all the nutrients you need on only fruit? How does one not get bloated eating all the sugar that comes with fru

How much water do you people drink? Do you think it is important to incorperate a lot of water into your lifestyle? Do you think that you get enough water from fruits and veggies? I read in a book that the best source of water is "organic water" and you can only get that from fruits and veggies so when one is thirsty, one should drink juice instead of water. what do you people thi

does that mean that anywhere that sells packaged "raw" nuts means that they are not really raw? Or do you think that's just trader joes? do you think that it is a necessary procedure to package things to heat them?

416. Re: Too many nuts?

Nuts are so yummie. I have a really big problem with them. I eat them a lot until I get sick. I know I'm not supposed to eat so much, but they are just sooooooo good. When I eat a lot of nuts I know I am not listening to my body, and I am more listening to my mind. mmmm yummie nuts. Brazil nuts are my favorite.

this is a fun question.. If I were not raw, I'd probably eat a lot of bread. I'd make bread, steam rice, pita bread, veggie sandwiches with hummus and avocado, chick peas, lentils... stuff like that. I'd eat a lot of fruit, and um... I don't know, I love the food I get to eat on raw, but maybe if I wouldn't be raw I would eat things that I could eat out of convenience, you know? like if I

First of all I would like to thank everyone for sharing their stories. Thank you. It helps a lot just to hear someone else's experience because most people are afraid to admit. I myself am afraid to admit most of the time even though I think that to most of the people around me it has been completely obvious the disease was in my life.
