I LOVE this topic. haha!
The way most people have sex, no it is not cardio. But yes you can make it so. And it can also count for some strength and flexibility if you get into creative positions. :D
Just to be clear - she is not vegan, just vegetarian.
That article made a claim that is outright false - saying that of centenarians, there aren't even any vegetarians. My great aunt Eva is 102 and she has been vegetarian for many decades.
"It's not our fault we can't work."
BS. I know there is debate about "fat genes" and such, but if you are that obese, it is 100% your fault. Maybe my opinion is too harsh because I have never been more than 130 lbs. But people who are dependent o...
I believe it. Raw organic unprocessed foods changed me emotionally too.
Profile Information
- About Me:
- I have been interested in nutrition since I was a teenager, and I have a bachelor degree in nutrition science from UC Davis. Looking back, my coursework was filled with the typical institutional view of nutrition. I still enjoyed it and felt that I gained much from it, but I still sought more. Honestly, I was always seeking a way to make myself look younger and prettier, but through completely natural means.
I recently changed my diet to be raw-organic-vegan (as much as reasonably possible) in hopes of attaining a new level of health and well-being. First, I opted for all organic food in September 2008, and I started becoming raw in December 2008. Finally, I became vegan in February 2009 when I realized that animal foods exacerbated my eczema (and who wants to be itchy, right?). I am enjoying the positive effects that raw organic vegan foods are bringing into my life (increased sense of well being, enhanced mental clarity, improved mood and emotional stability, and the complete erasure of PMS from my life), and I hope to find still more benefits as I continue my journey.
Some "regular" information about me: I am in my 20s, never married, no children.

Greg Sinicrope said… - well, then I think you got all the info you need to start a group or go to the Ojai one. These groups meet about once a week. Ojai meets each Friday, I think. Not too far to drive. Give it some thought. I love our group and have learned a lot about how to prepare food from the members. Greg

- Kat, the good ol' internet, via google. They use Meetup.com and this works well. But it all started as a potluck. So if you don't have a raw foods group, you can start a potluck with some friends and have it evolve. Meet at the park first then try houses. But you can also go to other raw groups. You live in LA county, I think? I live in Santa Barbara and we are on the web, so could come up here to one of ours to see how to get one going. There's a group in Ojai near Ventura that would love to have you, as we would. I could introduce you. We have some very nice people who are great chefs. But the point is that it's well worth doing and not so hard to start. Get others to help. Let me know if you need more infor. Look up our group at http://www.meetup.com/raw-food/

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.

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!!
