..The raw food diet may be the most beneficial in the world with good quality, fresh, organic produce.
These raw fooding tips and links may help those willing to give it a try. I find I do better in every way on a fresh diet. I'm no longer acidic, and digestion has greatly improved. Digestion is the basis of your whole health as each cell is nourished and able to get rid of it's waste.

Tea 101:
My "whole teapot" method and favorite herbs .
...Don't underestimate
the effect of your diet on your mind and emotions. Our culture has lost
touch with this connection, but after clearing your cells through fasting
or cleansing, you can really feel the effect of foods on the psyche.
Do not feel like preparing a dish? Pig out on one organic fruit or vegetable til your taste buds reject it... a monomenu is the safest way for your body to regulate itself and the easiest to digest. Be sure and include lots of greens and neutral veggies like cucumbers and carrots.
What are green coconuts?
I used to buy brown coconuts, but the small amount of milk usually tasted
sour.
Now I buy the green ones that look white because the huge green hull has been
cut off for shipping. Much more juice and usually not sour. I use the flesh
and juice in desserts and smoothies and spicy raw soups

In response to an inquiry about coconuts and coconut milk, I believe if your town has an Asian population, especially Southeast Asians, you should be able to find them. A friend picked up a white coconut for me which turned out to be a blond version of a brown coconut. This is not as stale as the brown often are, but not nearly as fresh as the one I was hoping for. Green coconuts look white and are usually wrapped in cellophane. If they shipped the entire green, or young, coconut, shipping would be too expensive. Much of the green hull is chopped off. Because of this shaving, make sure the one you buy feels heavy with juice and is not mildewy or mushy under the plastic. I have stored them a case at a time unrefrigerated in a cooler room in winter for a few weeks. The local Asian market supplies the local Asian restaurants and will often sell you a case of something. |
...I became
interested in this longevity and energy-giving way to eat after doing
some body work to improve digestion. I did a colon cleanse followed by
a kidney and then a liver cleanse.
...I also got the metal out of my mouth,
replacing it with plastic fillings.
