Hey, I thought kidney bean sprouts were poisonous unless they're cooked. Also, how about navy beans? I've been looking everywhere to find out if I can eat them raw. Any advice for a sprouting newbie? :)
what are you going to do with all your sprouting equipment if you're fruitarian again?
Yes, sproutpeople.com has very good instructions which I was successful with.
How are they coming along SOFIE? I'm going to look at the request you sent me now.

Share Ross said… - Hi Francis, Saw that you had some comments about B12. I have been raw for about 2.5 years now and regularly visit an alternative health care practitioner. She muscle tests my body to make sure I'm 'getting what I need'. Recently, for the first time, I came up short in the B12 department. She then tested my body for all sorts of B12 supplements and the best one was one by veganworld.com. It's a spray and I only need 1 spray per day. So interestingly enough, I was not getting enough B12 from the plant world. If you are concerned about it, I would suggest a similar path as there is no point in being dogmatic about our raw food lifestyle to the point of not getting something right! Fortunately, the spray I got was vegan so that made me pretty happy!
I do believe that everyone is different and there is not one singular path that will just work for everyone. We have to listen to our bodies and fine tune as we go.

Clement said… - Hi Francis. I'm at a total loss with this vitamin B12 topic. I too have been been researching on whether or not it is found in the plant kingdom. All I want is an official, definitive answer that says either yes or no, and here if yes, then here is the proof. If you come across anything then please let me know.
Clement :)

- Hi F! That was so good of you to make time to come by and meet us. Too bad greater LA is so damn tough to manuver thru the traffic or we would live much closer than it actually ends up being.
I really would love to hear about your last evening's feast..and esp if you like the coconut butter?!
Until we meet again :-)
(ps, i am adding your raw map to my blog links!)

Cameron said… - Hey Francis, just saw the thread on CSAs. I'm trying to decide if I want to join one soon. There is one that delivers to the Saturday Farmers Market in Santa Monica, called JR Farms I think. I found them through the Local Harvest site, there is a good page that talks about their prices and produce. I'm unfamiliar with CSAs, having never belonged to one, so I'd be curious what you think of them if you get a chance.

Well we are not early man. Sitting on the computer typeing isn't natural. Not sure what being natural has to do with working out.
Jumping rope at a moderate pace seems okay for someone out of shape or for a warm up. If you want it to be an effect...
Check out Dr. Bass' books for a much more concise understanding of his research and findings. I bought his books immediately after watching these videos, and have been reading through them since. :-) Great info, thanks for posting! http://www.drba...

I find it's quicker to make four cuts, scaling the outer skin equally then pulling it away and thumping with a wooden spoon. Plus it's less of a mess and you don't lose any juice because none of the kernels are cut :)
There are different varietie...

Those look GMO. Organic pomegranates are smaller.
Same here. That counter full of oranges was like whoa.

I have been jumping over rope for the past few days, it feels so good, almost every part in the body moves and it gives a lot of flexibility, it's even helping me to do some yoga asanas much better than before.
Is jumping over the rope good for h...
Pomegranate seeds can add fall color to any dish. They are good for more than just their color and flavor, they are full of nutrients, too. Pomegranates are full of Vitamin C, one pomegranate contains nearly 50% of the daily value of Vitamin C. ...
why not? Ginger seems like it mostly goes in those types of dishes but garlic goes with italian and burgers etc..
That looks like a cool place to be!
you look mystical!!
