Preparing dinner for the non-raw fam

So I have a killer recipe for Raw Lasagna and I'm going to prepare it for my 'rents this evening. I'm home from school and I'm trying to turn my parents on to raw living and this is the best dish I can prepare. I made the tomato sauce and the cashew ricotta cheese last night. It's just marinating in good Italian spice: garlic, oregano and basil to name a few. I really hope this turns out good. I made some collard green wraps before and well... we won't talk about that lmfao. N E wayz GITMR famil… Continue

811rv day one

I have been working on becoming a raw vegan for sometime. After chatting with a few friends I have decided to transition to the 80/10/10 raw vegan diet. The increased fruit will decrease the cravings I have had lately, which should help me stay on track. The lifestyle sounds fantastic because at any given time I would rather eat fruit anyway. So I'm ready, half a day has passed and everything has been good so far. I've had a few bananas, grapefruit and few oranges. I'll eat a mango and some blue… Continue

Help! I can't get junk food out of my life

I've been successfully becoming more raw over the past few months. Except I have been unable to eliminate junk food from my life. Really it's just doritos and cheez it. I know right, how awful. I stretch out a few days and boom I break and wind up eating one or the other. I'm taking all suggestions on how to eliminate these two from my life. Can anyone offer some advice, replacement or anything?

Raw is so awesome.

So I have been raw now for nearly two months and it is awesome. I have lost about 30lbs I wasn't to heavy before but just a stocky kinda guy. I exercised regularly but with my eating habits there wasn't much change. I guess I was working out only to support the food I was eating. Since switching to raw I have lost weight and worked out even less(stress from school has been hectic). I'm down from a size 38 to 34 and I feel great. I feel as if I am taking my body and life back from the SAD lifesty… Continue

I'm considering the southwest where you're located and the Canadian College in Toronto.

My background is 20 years in mental health working with an interdisciplinary team of psychiatrists and nurses; this is the extent of my medical experience. I was told by the Canadian College of Natur. med of what is required for admission: I need five pre-med courses of basic science. I start these in a few weeks. My fear is that I will become discouraged in the field-the basic "I'm not smart enough" fear. I am in awe of a doctor from Bastyr who I've been in contact with plus my raw journey have led me down this path.

the chocolate covered stuff is the easiest thing in the world.

just warm so coconut oil....and stir in some ground cacao.
i use about 2tbl. of coco oil per cup of ground cacao.
...from there you can do anything to make it taste better. You can add sweetners, salt, mint, orange zest, vanilla. If you want a bit more of a rich chocolate taste add some cacao oil.

then knock yourself out dipping whatever you want into the chocolate.
it's the easiest thing in the world.
peace.

How are you finding you like naturopathic medicine at southwest. I'm considering going into this but not sure if this is the right path.

You're allergic. I have the same reaction and ended up getting allergy tests. Just have to wait it out and let it heal. Apparently you can build allergies to pineapple, so that sucks.
