Ladies, I've joined there already! Awesome IMHO! Join up and be a powerful goddess! =)
Awesome information Freelee! Thank you for all of your insight! So, for me, since I really love fruit so much...I'm going to go the route of bananas for 7-10 days! This seems to make the most sense to me - especially regarding the need for glucose...
Plus the whole thing about the brain needing sugar to survive!
Kelly - thank you! That makes sense as I remember reading before that the fat hinders sugar efficiency in the body. So maybe people are having success both all mono fruit and all greens simply because they are cutting out the fat as well! I absolu...
Rawzilla...what do you think of these people who did the mono fruit thing? And are you able to eat fruit at all after you kill the candida? Thanks :)
Menaka, I'm so confused! Trent's advice simply makes sense to me because sugar feeds yeast (candida). So, in my opinion, cutting sugar via fruit would be the way to go. Beside the fact that a few of the "gurus" believe the same. On the other hand,...
That's awesome!!! She CAN DO IT!!!! =D
Menaka - we can do this together if you'd like! Some support to help each other stick to it! The plan is greens then? I know that hygenically speaking, one can incorporate some nuts as long as they're not eaten with fruit (fat/sugar combo). But I'...
Thank you for posting this menaka! I've got the same problem with candida...and acne on my face is a side effect for me as well. So I love bananas, but doesn't the sugar feed candida?? And from what I take on Trent's reply...that a 100% green diet...
Hey have you posted this on 30BaD? I think it may assist you X
...could never find truely raw cashews expecially! and raw pistachios - yumm!

Could it be...????????
....the BANANAS???? Nooooooooooooooooooo! But I love bananas!!!!
Lol okay here's the scoop...
I've still got TONS of acne on my face, especially around my cheekbone and lower jaw area! I've been completely at a loss as to what is causing it. I've never had so much acne in my life. I've been roughly 95% raw for 8 months now so I figure a good part of my cleansing is over with. I've made it a habit to clean my makeup brush every morning after I use it so it's not bacteria from that. I use mimima… Continue

Struggles and Triumphs!
Hello everyone! Hope you are having a blessed day!
I've been struggling the last couple of weeks to stay raw. My real desire is to be 100% raw! I've hovered between 95-99% mostly but the last couple of weeks that I just mentioned have seen me at about 85-90%. I write about this because I'm having lots of trouble avoiding the pumpkin pie and cake-y desserts that seem to sit around and make it their job to tempt me lol. I've moved back in with my mom so I have less control over what kind of food… Continue

BEST Day in 8 Months!!!!!!!
Lol...as you may know from my post a few days ago I was super-duper excited!!!!
Even more so today!!!!! The Breville juicer that my mom ordered came today!!! Yippeeee!! Only problem was that we'd eaten all the fruit in the fridge already lol! We managed to get a 12oz glass of delicious juice out of 1 1/2 apples, 6 celery stalks and a handful of seedless red grapes! DELISH!!!
What are some of your favorite combinations? *Especially those that yield lots of juice since I have a centrifugal juice… Continue

- Woohoo! That's fantastic to hear gorgeous! Yes don't focus on the greens too much at this stage as they aren't as gentle on digestion as soft fruits and can lead to the body working harder then is best at the early stage of healing. My best advice now Renee is to keep eating enough calories, aim for above 2000, this will not take away from your healing and at the same time will make it easier to stay raw. I recommend you get 811 book if you can, its my bible :) Thanks heaps for your kind words, i appreciate it X

- Hey my pleasure I know what you're going through. Yes your facial acne is attributed to an imbalance of candida in your body. I'm not sure exactly how long it will take for your acne to heal as everyone's body has its own agenda but if you follow a 100% LFRV lifestyle it will go & most likely rather quickly. I healed my acne via this lifestyle, consistency & eating enough is key X

Johnny said… - Hi Renee! Was just in ChicagoLand last weekend. Took a drive along Lake Shore Drive. It was soo beautiful. Then went to Karyn's Fresh Corner for some ridiculously good raw food - expensive though. I appreciate your interest in the science of raw. The raw food movement could use some more of that.

How long did 50lbs last you? A week? I would recommend that a person get some greens to go along with their bananas.. did you forage for any greens that week?
Wow Id like to hear more on this from other people as well. I am not sure where to get info on things like this either- I just know my personal experience with a low carb diet. I still believe in low carb for the most part but plant based live foo...
That is a good point Angus. I have found that a lot of fundamentalist religions accuse everyone else of worshiping the devil and it like a blind hysteria- like all these other people have a black bible in their house and secretely worship a statue...
That's brilliant Angus, thanks....this will keep me busy for a while :)

Yeah really that was just my negative response to Arnold Ehret's book from an emotional standpoint. I just found it lacking in completion. There's good logic in it though.
First there'sDr . J. Tilden's book on the cause of disease. Toxemia Explai...

What other book can you recommend Angus?...staying with those kinda ideas, living in alignment with nature, natural hygiene, fruit diets, fasting (or anyone else :).

I'm not going to comment on climate change. But i will comment on carbon trading. Because they can produce such a consciousness of fear out of global warming - they are able to manipulate markets much more severely - and they seem to get away with...
