Emily's Raw Breakthrough
Profile Information
- About Me:
- I went raw on 9/10/07 after a woman spoke to the fibromyalgia support group I started and told us that raw foods started to cure her in a week. Five days later, I felt better than I had since before I got sick (in 2001) and I haven't looked back since!
Update- I just started my raw foods coaching adventure, so if you want any help in transitioning to a more raw diet, check out my websites: www.rawbreakthrough.com and www.noblelifeelements.com/chicago.
- How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
- “Don’t help me or serve me, but let me see it once, because I need it. Don’t work for my happiness, my brothers—show me yours—show me that it is possible—show me your achievement—and the knowledge will give me the courage for mine.” Ayn Rand in the Fountainhead
- Relationship Status:
- Single
- Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
- My homemade cashew ice cream and chocolate sauce- it's heavenly:)
- Interests (outside of Raw Food):

The Difference Between Conservatives and Liberals
This isn't so much a blog post as me just posting a very interesting and thought-provoking article from my Northwestern alumni newsletter that I feel is very relevant considering we are only a few weeks away from the biggest election many of us have ever seen:

Elements for Life
I was on a conference call with David Wolfe and Kevin Gianni the other night and there is a brand new 100% raw organic superfoods network marketing company!!! The company is called Elements for Life and I really think this could be an awesome way of spreading the word about raw food across the planet.
I know network marketing is usually cheesy, but this company is doing it right. Pure, beautiful products like cacao, goji berries, marine phytoplankton, Sacred Chocolate, cordecyps, and colloidal… Continue

God Bless Humana!
Of course, I'm being facetious with that title, but there is actually a kernel of truth there. I just opened my monthly insurance statement and read the most beautiful sentence ever..."You have zero medical claims and zero prescription claims for this quarter." Less than a year ago, if I had received such a statement, I shudder to think how many claims would have been included. Due to ulcerative colitis, fibromyalgia, sinusitis, allergies, etc., I was on about 25 pills a day, plus a wicked liqui… Continue

I just watched this again. Quentin Tarantino still wants his hat back. Also, how do you know that we can't survive in the vacuum of space? You realize that's a *gasp* scientific theory?
Thanks for attending The Show for us, YogaB. I used to go to a lot of these sorts of things when I lived in sunny So Cal. Glad I moved, glad I got poor, glad I lost my ability to follow. I remember getting so damn excited at every lecture, ready t...

I have no good recipes but if you live in California or Oregon, there is a brand called HAPPY DAY RAW FOODS that makes different kinds of mousse desserts. Typically year round they make a standard vanilla and a chocolate. But around the holidays t...
Yes, I have had the SAME experience. My headache and other detox symptoms got so bad one day (3tbsp two days in a row), I found relief only by soaking in my tub with music and eyes closed- hours passed like minutes. I felt as if I was on drugs (su...

Damn. Four days ago, I upped my dose from a few teaspoons each WEEK of MSM powder to a couple of tablespoons each DAY. Monday I noticed I was a quite irritable at work, impatient, and in a general daze. Yesterday, I felt the same way at work and t...

Were the Hobbits raw vegan? Does the Death Star look like a honeydew melon to you? Have you ever played Halo or WoW while juice feasting? Would Superman be even stronger if he got monthly colonics? Discuss all these questions and more right here.

Having fun at the store, and getting back into raw.
I was a little off for a while.
Are you still touring?

I found my first day easy, with 'discomfort' coming on the second day and intensifying on the third day. I've read that after the third day, your digestive system goes to sleep which may be why today has been such a breeze. I only drank two juices as opposed to my previous three per day, simply because I intuited my needs.
