Whatever is around. I like to use wild greens when I can get them such as Purslane. Base is either water, water kefir soda or coconut kefir. Fruits are whatever I get or thats in season. Summer time where a lot of mangoes and berries. I like to al...

Can I just live my life?
I don't normally do blog post, but I guess I'm in the mood in sharing or perhaps seeking some revelation. We'll I've spent 23 years in this great state of Illinois, but I feel I've reached the point where I can no long live here. I DONT WANT TO LIVE HERE ANYMORE! I feel trapped, I can't fully be the person that I want to be. How can one live in an environment without support for ones dreams? How can one live in an environment filled with negative energy? How can one live in an environment when o… Continue

- I've gone foraging with Brill. He's definitely a character. There's another foraging guy in the NYC area named Tim (forgetting his last name). I like him a little more because he's more normal. Not that there's anything wrong with Brill, but after awhile his puns get to be a little bit too much.

- Very cool...I've been thinking about making some tinctures of Chinese and Ayurvedic herbs, though a lot of them have cousins that live here!
I have limited wild mushroom knowledge at the moment, though I've harvested morels and puffballs (stick to the obvious ones while I'm a mushroom novice!)
Ya, I've never been to Chicago, but I imagine you would be surprised at what grows out of the cracks in the pavement there! There might even be ginkgo trees in some of the older sections, couldn't say for sure. Check out Rosemary Gladstar or James Duke for some great american herbals, or Susun Weed if you can stomach her (she's anti-raw, but has some good info). Brigitte Mars is a raw herbalist though!

Well, I never wasted away and actually feel that some of my deficiencies from poor digestion are turning around. But while I am getting the calories and nutrients I need, I sure do need to eat a lot! I often think of animals, like goats or rabbits...
New Zealand is just more environmentally conscientious than most places. I guess being an island is part of the reason. I loved NZ when I visited.
Matt Monarch interviews Victoria Boutenko - The Raw Food World Radio Show :) at Internet - http://wwwTheRawFoodWorldRadioShow.com
November 27, 2009 from 6pm to 8pm
Victoria Boutenko is our very special guest for November on The Raw Food Radio Show.
http://www.TheRawFoodWorldRadioShow.com
Mr Monarch has TWO important questions for Victoria... Are you 100% Raw and if so, why do you carry extra weight?
YEP! ...
People eat apricot kernels? What the hell.
Many people out there are becoming vegans, raw foodists, and vegetarians under the guise that it is healthier for them. Is it really healthier to being vegan though and are vegans/vegetarians being thrown the ookie doke by large commercial interes...
You could make an avocado chocolate (or carob) mousse but sweeten it with stevia, so you'll only be getting the fat and not the sugar.
Or you could make a green smoothie (or a regular, non-fat smoothie) and freeze it into sorbet:-)
Thanks! :)
Cool! :) Yeah we had a nasty pile of compost, I'd work it into the soil with my dad when he planted the veggies
LOL! Oh yeah the CA police! Making sure Columbia doesn't get too funky!
Wow thats really interesting. Do you find it hard to get enough calories in?
thanks you:) i will do this.

Have you tried hicheya Persimmons?
Be sure they are super-mushy ripe.
Just cut the top off and spoon out the lusciousness.

The diet is mostly cultured, raw veggies and non-starchy veggies. The remaining 20% consists of either a protein or a starch (but never eaten together).
It's strict in many ways. The goal of the diet is to not feed yeast in the colon, and to heal...
For those with a passion for yoga and the raw food lifestyle
looking good, brotha Chris
thanks! I didn't know that. I grow mungs, but they never get past the 3/4" stage. I'm going to experiment with growing them as you do.....sounds like a great variation!
What does the diet consist of? And strict in what ways?
i second the motion that it's great in smoothies.. wonderful flavor
