Guest guest Posted February 27, 2004 Report Share Posted February 27, 2004 In the last few days I've been putting raw green beans into salads for the first time. Never tasted them before--raw green beans are delicioius! Even my kids are eating them. Amazing. Vegetables are probably making up about 50% of my diet now, and fruits another 20% or so. This is pretty good considering that, up until about 2 weeks ago, I ate only the occasional banana and steered clear of vegetables altogether. I did have some pain initially from gas as a result of introducing vegetables, but nothing severe, and it has not occurred at all in the last 4 days. My body seems to have acclimated itself quickly. So I'm fairly happy with my progress so far. This list is an incredible help. Lena Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 27, 2004 Report Share Posted February 27, 2004 My first real insight into raw eating came with green beans. It was 1991, roughly, and I thought to myself, " why not just have a meal of some item? " So I went in the store and bought some green beans and had a meal. I thought, " this is probably the way I should be eating. " Of course, I had very few meals like that over the next twelve years, but it's still an insight I remember. Raw string beans (green beans) are ok, I'm not crazy about their taste however. Any gas I have raw doesn't smell much anyway, so what's the big deal. I am less gassy though than when I started this go around raw. rawfood , " Angelina H. " <angelinarh> wrote: > In the last few days I've been putting raw green beans > into salads for the first time.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 Raw corn has a tendency to run right through me without digesting. I understand this is a characteristic of raw corn. I like raw corn and I have nothing against it, but I haven't bought any in quite a while. rawfood , Nicholas Costanza <jetpostman> wrote: > Just picked raw corn taste delicous too!!! > Nicholas Costanza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
