We should be neither alkaline nor acid but neutral. There needs to be a balance between the acid minerals like phosphorous and the alkaline minerals like calcium.
People have weak teeth not because of genetics but because the diet of their mother had insufficient minerals and fat soluble vitamins during pregnancy. They are born demineralized and never get enough minerals to make up for the lack.
How well do you do with dairy? Have you tried raw dairy? It's another option for you. Fish is great, though, too. Just make sure you get wild caught. Take a little bentonite clay with your fish meal at night because the clay will bind up the mercu...

yes, one of my favorite things to do if not the favorite is foraging. Grandpa told me to go pick a mushroom from a tree not too long ago and just take a bite to see if it's not too hard... and I did but was I reluctant...now I know. But, I do know many wild plants and berries that I like to forage for. It's relaxing to walk in nature and identify things...that's probably why I like it. Also you have the added benefit of free and high nutrient dense food....ah yes, so many more benefits, but I'll stop here....
Hi. I'm not brave enough to go mushroom picking (reishi mushrooms) just yet. I pick everything but mushrooms. Those berries look so delicious by the way...nice pics!
Lovely pics. Thanks for the tip on using vodka for herb tincture. Have you tried it with mushrooms? Love the forest mrm pic. I live at the beach - no forest here so I buy my shrooms from "Mushroom Science" The Lions Mane is super for brain clarity as long as I stay raw and low sweets. And you? Namaste, N8
Hey El-bo, LOL,
no bad amigo.
We'd love to have the chance to guide you through this amazing process some day.
And though I would never presume to speak for Doug and what he offers, we are in a completely different ballpark.
Yes, Tanglewood is...
Thank you so much for answering my questions! the whole idea of the diet really resonates with me, Ive been doing some research tonight and so starting tomorrow Im going to follow the basic principles from what I've read. I'm not vegan either- I f...
Thank you guys for the advice!
Freelee, i have learned about food combining before, I guess I was just hoping that in the raw environment it would be different. But it's ok! I just want to feel good.

well...i'm pretty new to this. i'm not totally raw yet. plus, i'm just learning more about nutrition. i get bad stomach cramps sometimes when i'm running late in the morning and only have my morning coffee. on my way to work, i get cramps and don'...
The best thing to do is drink green juices. Juice 2 lbs of greens per day. You are working from an old paradigm of health. Doing protein drinks doesn't help anyone. From your description you are not eating greens at all. You need to eat greens to ...
Learn about proper food combining, this is vital. Fruit is designed to be eaten alone, if eaten with fat,the fat keeps the sugar in the bloodstream for an unnatural length of time feeding problems such as candida, diabetes, adrenal fatigue etc. It...

I reuse plastic bags till they're falling apart. I've gotten into the habit of always having a shopper or two with me or a rolled up plastic bag wherever I go.
Hmmm. I've had mine for at least 10 years. I don't know about everybody else, but I find them very convenient to use. The Chico bags that is ( an no, I'm not selling them) because I can fold them up into tiny balls and stick them into my purse. Th...
In the first stage, the diet is restricted to veggies, protein, and just a few grains (eaten in very small portions). Fermented foods and sea veggies are very integral to this diet, so it sounds like you might really like the diet.
Nothing sweet ...
