For the first time ever I haven't had any overts in over a week and it feels waaaay better than I did on 811 ratios. Just like I thought it would-it cured my 3 week long persistent migraine that was keeping me from exercise:-D
Also I'm finding I'm...
I stuck with around 90%(calorically) raw the first 9 months, became "tastarian" during culinary school, tasting chicken, bacon, breads,etc. After graduating, went 100% not tasting a thing for another 8 months, went through some stressful business ...
Ditto everyone on green juice. And blended apples with celery:-) and suuuuper dark spinach n fruit smoothies. That's been bfast lunch and dinner this week.
After water upon waking, I've been doing green juice around 11 or 12 lately, sometimes blended with a persimmon or apple. When that digests I'll have some blended fruit and celery. The high concentration of greens makes me not hungry for hours, ti...
Carrie-my mom had lots of amalgam, but I've also had +/-10 annual flu shots in the first 15 year of my life. Not sure if my health issues are mercury related though. A regular healthcare center should be able to test for mercury levels right? I'll...
Taking everything in with wonder, and letting it out in a sigh of gratefulness, that feeling of knowing something big and wonderful is about to happen, witnessing transformation, magical moments of depth shared with unexpected people, experiencing more love in a single moment than I can comfortably contain, releasing it into the world through kind words, high vibes, and good intentions, creating giant nude oil pastel drawings, walking around Berkeley with no destination, theosophy, ethnobotany, eschatology, compost, carpost, roompost, bedpost, and the smell of all four, urban foraging, ayurveda, internet tanning, gardening, banned and/or censored sciences, the eight circuits of human consciousness, random adventures.
Favorite Books or Authors:
Anything by Alexander Shulgin, Alan Watts, John C Lilly, Timothy Leary, Robert Anton Wilson, Aleister Crowley, Terence Mckenna, Dalton Trumbo, or William James. Oh, and The China Study, which is quite possibly the most amazing book ever written. And the Tao Te Ching. And the Bardo Thodol. And the Popol Vuh. Oh, and the Art of War by Sun Tsu, because every single line of the book applies to the social lives of humans.

I feel fungal overgrowth is the biggest threat to human health today and it's always wise to win the war on candida. I used to be really into making sure I didn't eat any food that raw vegans considered toxic and be really dogmatic. I prefer livin...
Im a hydrotherapist and I love taking arm bath. Its a totally wakeup kickstart in the morning! And the fundamental hydrotherapeutic stuff are the cold flushes and wraps. Sure theres much more like the 5 principles by S. Kneipp (water, moving, plan...
I still have trouble knowing a lot of the theories are true that as so prevalent in the raw food world. Like when a person detoxes that parasites and metals come to the surface of their skin or are expelled from their body in other ways. I was jus...

Can you just eat more volume so you don't binge? also, what about eating really dense herbs like a bunch or two of parsely or basil put into a pesto? Parsely is high in iron so you can make a tabouli with it and use oranges instead of tomatoes- it...
