Hi Everyone,
This is a great group. Hake you taken a look at www.rawmom.com
it is a wonderful site on raising raw kids, among other things. We have a new newsletter called 'Raw Mom Times.' To find out more contact Tera, or Jamie.
I also have a new book coming out next year that Stephani McGirr has been writing with me called, 'Healthy Kids In A Toxic World.' You can check out some sneak peaks of the book (in my side show) on my page or in my picture file. Let me know what you think.

Hi everyone!
I am also new to the group and have just recently transitioned to raw after being vegan for several years.
Nicola, I have a two year old as well. And I have noticed that he is intrigued by almost everything he sees me eat! Whether it s a green smoothie, fresh fruit/veggies and even my nori wraps. Maybe it's because I have always given him what I ate in the past like tabouleh, hummus, grape leaves (I love Mediterranean dishes), Indian curries & even Ethiopian food.
My point in mentioning this is, I think our children are much more open and receptive to new dishes than we tend to believe. You simply have to be creative and demonstrate how delicious a new dish is by first eating it with great pleasure in front of them. They watch everything we do and tend to take their cues on how to react to something foreign or new from us.
Good Luck on your journey and Happy New Years everyone!

Peace Everyone!
I'm new to the group and new to Raw Food after being a Vegan for years. I have a 3 year old son who will pick all the fresh veggies off of a dish and only eat select things like broccoli. He'll eat the dehydrated veggies w/ dip and green smoothies as long as there is lots of fruit in them. If anyone has suggestions on how to get him to eat the fresh veggies straight let me know.

I've watched that. It is so weird that they have that show on. I also watched the old v's. They are a trip- with 80s hair and the spacesuit type outfits they wear. If you look at how small our planet is compared to others like Niburu- you can see ...

I'm on a computer in the library right now (as I was on Thursday), so any posts may be a little short. I was a little stressed by the reapplication information about the CAB because I had the same issues with finding paid work to fit around it bef...
Thanks for checking this out Vamp. It is truly amazing if you can be open minded enough to watch the video. People act like we haven't invented space travel. If you can accept that- then how hard would it be to accept jumping onto a planet that is...
wow! amazing. out of curiousity, did you feel that you needed to raw-detox for a number of years before going on a water fast over 7 days?
way to go - hope you share more !

I remember that!
starting to plan for this now ! right in the midlle of holidays !
i'm thinking about doing a week, but may extend with blended foods depending on how much detox I experience. Can't get the 'flu' just yet.
thanks....so grateful & dave is the best !...
Hi El-bo,
You're absolutely right; sodium is not the problem, but sodium chloride, and inorganic mineral salt which always causes water retention and raises blood pressure. We don't need any of that.
Doesn't holding your breath kill brain cell?
