Cacao

The stuff I get is definitely raw - both the whole beans and the nibs: http://www.superfoods.co.za/cacao-bean.htm I've noticed recently that eating whole beans before midday, caused me quite a lot ...

Cacao

You should be able to buy the whole bean, or even cocoa nibs (which are just coarsely crushed whole beans). Some brands do manage to keep the cocoa making process at no higher than 122°F, which is ...

These beans were soaked overnight in distilled water, which had a small amount of Himalayan salt dissolved in it. All subsequent washed (twice a day) were done with regular tap water. As soon as the leaf starts to form on the end of the shoot - th...

Just the big glass jars with regular screen on them. Yours looks nicer!

Not sure what the stuff is called. I think I got it at a fabric store - I'll find out & post back. What do you do your sprouts in?

This one jar of beanstalks (caus' they're hardly sprouts anymore!) has been added to my lunch everyday. I take a bit out in the am, and by evening they've almost grow back to the top of the jar again. They taste great like this - the whole thing. ...

Mung beans - they're the same one's I'm holding in another photo. One of the few sprouts (& I'm searching for more) that grow like this while staying fresh.

Real nice. Did you create the painting first and then the image on your member page, or the other way round?

Its also in Cola & other (soft) drinks, alongside sugar & all that other crap. Why anyone drinks water, I don't know. Good post, glad someone had the guts to raise the issue.

I made the Cafe Gratiture pumpkin pie today, with a few changes: Added some chopped cranberries to the crust. Didn't have coconut milk so just juiced a few carrots and added a little water. Didn't use lecithin. Used butternut like the recipe says....

Profile Information

About Me:
Hmm. This is a trick question right? Because it's actually about us, the community, the world, the universe? We are all one - and so you actually wish to know about yourself by asking me about myself. You trickster :)

Well. Me is enjoying trying new ways of fueling this body which is home to my thoughts (or so it seems). Me is amazed to exist and to be able to experience this particular reality. Because of this there is necessity in maintaining this mortal engine, in caring for communities and this world we live in. This might be a never-to-repeat opportunity to live, so why not sustain and let flourish this experience?

I enjoy being outdoors, walking through forests, eating flowers and drinking from streams. I enjoy technology. I enjoy dreaming - consciously and not.
How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
Recipes are good. Just being able to chat - which is what happens in a community (I'm hoping) - is good for now.
Relationship Status:
Single
Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
Carrot cake. Chocoloate mousse. Avocados and ...Fruit. So many!
Interests (outside of Raw Food):
Books - Sci-fi, nature writing, graphic novels, neuroscience, health, science & pseudoscience and short stories that make you go "wow...hey - come read this story quickly!".
Music - playing a bit of bass guitar; and listening to most everything else. Especially to someone just improvising on the piano.
Forests - like Borneo and the one near my house.
Lucid dreaming. Human enhancement / evolution. Meditation and altered states.
Peanut butter.
Favorite Books or Authors:
A. A Attanasio; Peter Matthiessen
Favorite Quote:
The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.
GI2MR Oath: I promise to do my best to keep this community drama free. I will not name call or throw around personal attacks. I pledge to be respectful even if I do not agree with another member's opinion. When possible, I'll try to smile : )
Yes! I accept the GI2MR Oath.

There are many reasons why people are overweight – stress, lack of exercise, lack of knowledge concerning correct nutrition, over-worked, laziness etc. But I believe one of the most potent reasons for overeating is emotions. It is a well-known fac...
