hi all

[Guest guest]

Redbone,

 

If your skin problems do not improve with the diet changes you are

making, I will be shattered. Moreover the raw diet will straighten out

your digestion. You are on the right track. Just stick with it. A

problem I see is that the changes you are making are so drastic that you

could expect detoxification on a level that could give mouth sores and

lots of other annoying symptoms.

 

Avoid being too hard on yourself and in a month or two you should feel a

new person.

[Raw Food] Hi All

 

 

 

I'm new here and was interested in the Raw Food diet. I recently am

also part of another group called " Acnetips " , b/c I also suffer from

mild-moderate break outs. i found this web site and paid $20 to read

what this man said about acne and how our overall health is invovled

with acne and other health problems. I also suffer from constipation.

What I read was nothing but the truth, however it's difficult to go

cold turkey on the food norm of the USA when I've been raised on it

for so long. But I know that it's not good for my overall health and

especially for my problem skin. So I need support, and advice from

others who it has worked for. I started with my new way of living

yesterday, and have given up on just about everything inorganic or

processed. Things like Red meat, Pork, Milk products, processed

foods, veggies and fruits with pesticides and herbicides, enriched

flour and rice, and hydrogenated oils of any kind. The only meat I'm

consuming is organic, vegetable-fed chix, snd sometimes fish(though i

heard it's not good for acne suffers, and comments?) lots of veggies,

and fruits, sprouted beans, herbal teas, vitamins, herbs, and

supplements, etc. I just wanted to know of anything that would be of

importance in increasing my health, and skin. Also if I could get

some hair tips.(I really am trying to grow my hair long and heard

that diet makes your hair grow fast), is a bonus. Thanks

FWIW, since going raw, I've stopped my acne medication, and my skin

has cleared up considerably. But once a month i get a minor

breakout, but it's more of a skin texture change with small bumps

rather than actual acne. It continues to improve with time. So hang

in there, you may notice things getting worse before they get better,

but I'm certain that they will.

thanks for the support. So you feel I am making my changes too drastic? Then

what should I do to make changes slower? Also I believe a lot of my problems are

also in my transit times. I heard you're supposed to have a bowel movement after

every meal, that would release some of the toxins out of your body. I have a

bowel movement problem. I have been recently taking a fiber supplement. Is there

anything else I can do to help the transit time along?

I am not a professional and I take note of the complex health situation

you have but on the other hand I have been through the mill of going raw

myself and therein lies your question..

 

I chopped out items a week at a time until I reached a point where there

was hardly anything cooked or animal left. By then I was ready for a

longish water fast and kick started myself into raw.

 

Thus early on I chopped red meat one week, dairy another, poultry

another, wheat & bread another, spices, etc. At the same time I did

some short juice fasts and then short water fasts with some gaps

between. I tended to make each fast twice as long as the previous with

some weeks between. All that took about a year

 

With hindsight I could have moved faster but at the time the notion of

raw food with its no animal products was not known to me and I had no

idea that anyone could survive on such a diet. I was just trying to get

back to a " natural " diet.

 

I recall having feelings of something akin to a lingering hunger during

the transition and I would eat a lot of green leaves and so forth but I

never " suffered " relapses or felt that the raw diet was too much or 90%

was enough or any other emotion such as plague some who join the forum.

 

Hope this helps.

 

 

Peter

Hi Peter,

I noticed in your post that you said one week you cut out spices. I am

having trouble with flavourings. I see recipes that call for say, a tsp of

paprika or cinammon or ground cumin etc. Is it bad for you to eat things

like chilies or spices? How can you know which powdered flavourings to use,

because, isn't paprika just ground up peppers so a raw food, or ground

cardmom pods. I know fresh herbs are okay but how about dried ginger

powder? I always loved sprinkling ginger on my melons. Any help on sorting

all this out would be much appreciated, or is it just better to avoid all

powdered condiments and flavourings. Even if you grind the seeds yourself

to make the powders.

Love Shell.

I always went back to the cheese as well. Then, I discovered uncheese and I

never looked back. Now, if I taste real cheese, I am sickened and

disgusted!

 

You will want to know about www.vegweb.com. There are many recipes. I have

a bulk uncheese recipe on there and just search recipes for " dragonfly " and

you'll find it.

[Guest guest]

Hi Diane. I am Mary Ellen. To say that I loved cheese would be an understatement. Heck, I almost almost worshipped it. In fact, my mouth is watering as we speak. Ok, I must stop. I have not eaten any cheese at all in a week. This is an accomplishment for me. I just wanted you to know that I symathize.

Peace, ~*~Mary Ellen~*~

Hi all

Hi all,My name's Diane and I've been vegetarian since 1988, lately learning more about vegan nutrition. I could easily do without eggs and cow's milk but I always go back to the cheese. (You can take the girl out of Wisconsin... ) Anyway I'm looking forward to sharing recipes and learning more about vegan cooking and baking.Peace,Diane

[Guest guest]

Could you please give more detail on uncheese? I too am a cheese-lover and wanna-be vegan, tough

combo. Anything that would help get me off my love of cheese would be hugely appreciated!

 

Thanks!

[Guest guest]

Don't forget about Tofutti cream cheese and sour cream. They are

fabulous. The downside is that they contain hydrogenated oils.

However, I think they are the best replacement for cheese. Also,

there are several un-cheese recipies out there that are great for

mac 'n cheese, lasagna, etc... Giving up cheese isnt as hard as you

might think. After a while, the thought of it even becomes gross.

(Think of where it comes from!!) You'll get used to other things in

place of the cheese. Just stop thinking of them as substitutes. Good

luck!

I have never liked cheese. I'm a lucky vegan.

I did give up chocolate 9 years ago.

If I can do that, you all can give up cheese!

Hi Paula,

thanks for your kind wishes. Morning sickness is getting much better,

although the seabands are making my wrists a bit uncomfortable. Its worth it

though. Been able to eat fruit today for the first time in weeks. I got

some lovely fresh peaches.

I hope that after the first trimester (3 weeks to go) it'll be a breeze for

me too!

I will probably be around for a few months, popping in and out, as i do like

talking to you all and the fab recipes that get posted.

Unfortunately i can't help you with your question. I know there is a group

but i'm not sure what the address is.

I have come across these before if it's any help:

http://www.veganbodybuilding.org/

http://www.veganbodybuilding.com/

http://tofu.org/vegan-power/faq.html

http://www.muscletalk.co.uk/vegetarian-bodybuilding.asp

 

Not that i've ever done any bodybuildfing but i remember being interested in

vegan athletes a while ago and did a bit of reading. Probably it was an

effort to impress my hubby.

There seems to be a lot more about veganism and bodybuilding than

vegetarianism but i'm not sure why. Take a look at the vegan stuff though.

It may still be useful for your son. I hope he finds some information and

guidance which will help alay your fears.

Take care,

vegetarian weight builder.

Hi all

 

 

Hello to everyone. I've been enjoying the posts and want to say

congratulations to you, Laura for the wonderful news! Hope your morning

sickness is over soon. I never experienced that with my two joyful

occasions! I remember having headaches and extreme tiredness in the

first trimester, and then after that it was a breeze! I, too, hope you

can stick around as long as possible, as the way we're striving to eat in

here is very healthy and can be supplemented with extra " good "

stuff....like good fats...extra grains, etc. I can remember during my

two pregnancies (my youngest is 18 now) having a quota of milk to drink,

and of course a vitamin. I don't see any reason at all that a vegetarian

plan would not be adequate--and of course, a lot better, for pregnancy!

 

And I'm including a question. I can sort of remember a reference in this

group to a group of vegetarian body builders. The reason I'm asking is

that my 18 yr old who just graduated has decided to continue his

highschool athletic endeavors and start going to the Y and do serious

body building. When he was in HS I would give him a protein shake in the

a.m. and try to feed him healthy veggies and grains etc. He played all

the sports, but was especially good in basketball, tennis, and track. In

my opinion, he was meant to have a tall, wiry, strong but thinly muscled

frame. In his mind, he wants to weigh at least 30 pounds more and be

super bulky. His partner in crime is about a head taller then he is and

must outweigh him at least 50 pounds....and he's telling my son he needs

to consume vast quantities of eggs and butter and whole milk and meat.

Last night my son came home an made an omelette with 7 --yes 7-- eggs and

a cup of milk and about a cup of grated cheese on top and choked the

whole thing down, then ate the green salad I insisted on making for him.

I'm interested in the vegetarian body shaping group because I think there

might be some good advice there that I can at least access and share with

my son. Does anyone know the address to this group and would they let me

join? Thanks in advance!

Hi all

 

 

I've began eating some vegetarian dishes about 4 years ago when I was

looking for a healthier alternative to what's offered to the masses.

Since then I've collected a few recipes and book marked favorites

online. I'm interested in seeing what this group has to offer.

About me, I'm a mother of three (mostly grown) 2 sons, 1 daughter. I

live in South East Pa and am currently enrolled in a class to be a

dental assistant.

Hi everyone, we've been quite here lately, thought I'd check and see how

everyone is doing? I've been doing a lot of the same meals lately for

convieninece so not too much kitchen experimenting for me! I did find some

lovely soy burgers at Trader Joe's with 11 grams of protein in them and no wheat

filler, which was really nice. They grilled really well, so I will have them on

hand to take with me to bbq's from now one. I ate them wrapped in a brown rice

tortilla.

 

Last weekend I went camping and did some prep work to make sure I had all my

food needs met. I packed soy burgers for dinner, and egg salad for lunch. I

used some program friendly bread for browns, and made a parsley salad to go

along side. It worked out really well! The funniest part was that during the

camping trip we take inner tubes a few miles up river from our site, and drop

the in the water and float back to our campsite. Most people bring drinks but

very few remember snacks. Not me! The first day we went in the water mid

afternoon so I brought my sparkling water and then a snack of cheese, crackers

and half an apple. The next day we got in the river around lunch time so I

brought with me egg salad, bread and a fork (I really can't fit enough egg salad

for the protein I need in a sandwhich so I improvise). You should've seen the

looks of envy! My motto: Have food, will travel.

Another great BBQ item: Portobello Mushroom caps. I marinate them a bit in

whatever might be handy, then put minced garlic, cilantro and sage on the

" underside " . If you use oil, olive oil would be a good addition. Then set them

on a medium-heat spot on the grill, and heat them through. No need to " flip " .

If you want to heat both sides, you can use tin foil. I like the grill marks,

so I don't do that. I use Ezekiel 4:9 whole wheat bread for the bun, toasted

less than a minute on each side on the grill. Or use a bagel. Add a slice of

tomato, some sliced onion, some lettuce and (if you like) some barbecue sauce,

and your burger-eating friends might ask " do you have any more of those

'shrooms? "

I don't understand why you floated tubes down the river. Was this to make them

easier to transport, to cool them down, or what?

I have conducted further experiments with sprouting. Chick peas work really

well, & I made a dish with celery & carrots that was lovely & spicey.

 

I also made some muffins with polenta & brown rice flour; they were not bad.

 

Otherwise I am still having non veggie lunches, but am continuing to love

lentils in the evenings!

lovely soy burgers at Trader Joe's with 11 grams of protein in them and no wheat

filler, which was really nice. They grilled really well, so I will have them on

hand to take with me to bbq's from now one. I ate them wrapped in a brown rice

tortilla.

along side. It worked out really well! The funniest part was that during the

camping trip we take inner tubes a few miles up river from our site, and drop

the in the water and float back to our campsite. Most people bring drinks but

very few remember snacks. Not me! The first day we went in the water mid

afternoon so I brought my sparkling water and then a snack of cheese, crackers

and half an apple. The next day we got in the river around lunch time so I

brought with me egg salad, bread and a fork (I really can't fit enough egg salad

for the protein I need in a sandwhich so I improvise). You should've seen the

looks of envy! My motto: Have food, will travel.

Mel, you are so inspiring with your sprouting adventures! Perhaps I will try

sprouting sometime, too.
