Guest guest Posted November 13, 2002 Report Share Posted November 13, 2002 EAST BAY LIVING FOODS NOVEMBER POTLUCK This month's potluck is on Saturday, November 16th at 6:30 p.m. at 1300 Grand Street (at Alameda Avenue) in Alameda in the Garden Cottage BEHIND the Home of Truth Spiritual Center. Go through the gate off of Alameda Avenue to get to the cottage. Read on for potluck and food guidelines and directions. This month's speaker is Jordan Rothstein who will be speaking on ENZYMES. Specifically food enzymes, digestive enzymes, metabolic enzymes, co-enzymes, phytochemicals, aging, cancer, pain, inflammation, free radicals, high-enzyme foods, enzyme-wasting foods, enzyme inhibitors, raw foods which contain no enzymes at all, and what to eat and what to avoid. Jordan Rothstein, CMT, practices bodywork, flower essences and nutritional counseling. A vegetarian of 35 years, he eats like a horse and has been feeling his oats since going raw. POTLUCK GUIDELINES: We request that each person bring a dish to serve about eight to ten people (if there are two of you, bring enough to serve 16-20 people). With a dish there is a $3.00 donation. Without a dish there is an $8.00 donation. No one will be turned away for lack of funds. Money is used to cover our expenses of rent, plates, cups, utensils, business cards, fliers, etc. If possible, remember to bring your own RECYCLABLE PLATE to benefit the environment. GUIDELINES FOR FOOD: *Raw, living plant food. That is, fresh fruit and vegetables, and soaked and/or sprouted nuts, seeds, legumes and grains. Nothing cooked, steamed, baked or otherwise heated above approximately 110 degrees. If in doubt, leave it out (no tofu, chocolate, or maple syrup, please). *No processed foods *Preferable organic or pesticide-free *Vegetarian/vegan (i.e., no animal products). - We ask that you clearly label your dish if it contains raw, unheated HONEY as honey is considered an animal product by some vegans. Dried fruit (dates, figs, etc.) blended with a little water makes a good sweetener for recipes (maple syrup is boiled for a long time). - Milks and cheeses can be made from nuts and seeds. *Please make sure everything is well washed. *Suggestions: All types of salads or fresh fruit. Go to www.living-foods.com for a good selection of raw recipes.
