RedheadMama said… - Hi Brenna...I'm new and in CT too! ITA with you about the green smoothies....they're my new favorite thing and so much easier than an oil-covered salad.

Profile Information
- About Me:
- I became interested in raw food in 1997, at age 16. I've dabbled in juicing and fruit-until-nooning since then, but it didn't really stick. Last year, someone recommended the book Green For Life to my husband. I read it and we've had a green smoothie almost every morning since. It is such a sneaky, yummy way to get the greens in and makes the raw thing seem more do-able. I never could get myself to like salad.

All raw (pretty much) yesterday!
bowl of strawberries in almond milk
mango/raspberry/baby spinach smoothie
spicy flax crackers from Raw Food Real World
baby spinach salad with olive oil/flax oil/acv dressing
fuji apple
cashews
dates stuffed with almonds
chocolate pudding made with avocado, young coconut meat, agave nectar, cacao, vanilla
I felt great and had enough energy for a vigorous workout (running, crunches, pushups). Maybe I will try all raw every Tuesday.

Hi Lee, I agree with you in many ways and would have said an unreserved yes to your statement before I tried raw vegan eating. Maybe it is different for different people, but I have been totally surprised at how much what I eat has been affecting ...
Soaking might help, I really don't know for sure. My father eats soaked dried chestnuts. The dried ones are really hard and they get a little bit softer when soaking them, but they are'nt as sweet soaked.
Same. Past girlfriends tell me I smell like fruit. Can't imagine why...
recently i have come to believe i may (not fully sure) have candida. mainly for the following reasons: after any cooked meal that is high in startches like say risotto the next day my head is so fuzzy and i think it may be even hungover or drunk. ...
I'm sorry I eat cooked food...lol. I just come here for nutrition info and the company of you wonderful people!
PARSLEY!!!! MINT!!!!!
This is what my mom recommends too. The thing is I live in a high-rise building in NYC, so I'm definetely not "grounded".
The grounding bed technology makes sense, but it doesn't feel natural to me. Has anyone tried it? Did you notice any changes...
So here is the deal... I have been running since Jan 2009 and doing this 8/1/1 thing (trying to be 100% but not yet) I am running in the California International Marathon Dec 6th and training is going fine running 2 to 4 times off and on a week fo...
Such a handsome boy.
thanks funny man!
Without fruit:
Bell pepper juice (very colorful and festive... red, orange, yellow)
Jicama juice (sweet milky)
Carrot juice with pumpkin pie spice
Cashew nutmilk with pumpkin pie spice
With fruit:
spinach and pineapple
spinach and coconut water
Would soaking them help? I've read that nuts in general has alot of anti-nutrients & soaking is always suggested.
Does anyone make raw recipes for their pets? Do you think it's healthy for dogs to not eat meat?
I LOVE this post. you have nailed on the head so many things that I think, about religion, food, dogma, etc.
It's true that so many legalistic people do not realize that what they're doing may come off badly to others; just trying to find what is...
