sounds like you may have candida...eating fruits especially med-high glycemic fruits will feed the candida and furthrer your problem...check if you have candida, get it fixed then had in some fruits. Greens are your friend and will always be. Eat ...
Sometimes a great approach is to not worry too much about removing all the bad stuff right away, but rather to let the good stuff start "crowding out" the not so good stuff.
Fruit in the morning or a green smoothie in the morning can get you star...

I started green juicing a few months ago and it has really helped. I didn't think it would make a dif at first since I eat so many greens. If the green juice is too veggie tasting for you, add a bit of fruit. I like orange, peach, or strawber...

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.

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...

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.

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 ...
