Guest guest Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 I think I will start a food diary as I have suffered form allergies all my life. Thanks Ya'll ~Jenn ---- Elchanan 06/09/07 03:17:02 rawfood RE: [Raw Food] Re: Grains and allergies Hi Jenn, Instead of using medical terminology ( " allergy " ), I suggest simply appreciating the enormous amount of extra work your body is undertaking to eliminate the stuff. The body produces mucus for self-protection ... to wrap foreign matter, keep that foreign matter out of contact with tissues, and move the foreign matter out of the body. We don't know anything else about what you are eating. so connecting the oatmeal more directly than that would be impossible without more information. Best, Elchanan _____ rawfood [rawfood ] On Behalf Of ~Jenn Friday, June 08, 2007 5:52 PM rawfood Re: [Raw Food] Re: Grains and allergies Interesting.. I ate oatmeal the other night.. First time in quite awhile. All night and throughout the next day I felt like I was getting a doozy of a cold. I was sure to mix the oatmeal with only water, no dairy, as this time of year is usually pretty bad for my allergies any ways. I wonder if this was an allergic reacction? Could nasal allergies be caused from oatneal? ~Jenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 I actually did eat raw oatmeal the other day. I have to say it was not bad really. I have a big thing of oatmeal, I had purchsed before deciding to go raw, and I just hate the idea of wasting it so I thought.........hmmmmmm I wonder.... So I made a kind of trail mix, with nuts, seeds, rasins and oatmeal from the box. It tastes ok. It tastes raw...lol I can get used to it. I made up several baggies. This way I can toss one in my purse and take it with me so I have a snack during times when I might be having a hard time and need something to " tide me over " til I get home. Jeannie your time is the most cherished gift of all, tomorrow is promised to no one.

Guest guest Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 jeannie from what i understand the cracked and rolled oat groat is steamed first to get it to crack...so its not really raw.. if you had raw oats..it would look like a hard seed, brown, about half the size of a grain of brown rice..with the same waxy hardness.. the soft flat thing is already processed.. anna On 6/10/07, jeannieh h <jeannieh99 wrote: > I actually did eat raw oatmeal the other day.

Guest guest Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 well i dont know cuz i didnt see it.. im assuming though that you had the cracked and rolled oat...those are steamed to make them soft... Then rolled flat... if you roll a dry raw groat..youd get dust. Like crushing dry raw rice....you cant soak rice in juice and eat it...right? peace anna On 6/10/07, jeannieh h <jeannieh99 wrote: > Anna, > > > Yeah, I did not have the groat. > > But what I had was not cooked.
