Guest guest Posted January 9, 2004 Report Share Posted January 9, 2004 If you look through our archives, you will find an abundance of recipes that will fit your allergies. If any of them use cornstarch you can just subsititute it witth arrowroot, it works just as well as corn srtarch. I can understand how frustrating this can be. We have celiac in our home as well as food allergies. We are trying to deal with them all as well. If you have any other questions, please ask.

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2004 Report Share Posted January 10, 2004 It was a joke ! Since the introduction of Kudzu into the US, where it has no natural controls, it has proven to be the most invasive and destructive plant known to have been imported. The South I knew, as a young child, has become over run with it. - Paula Gipson Saturday, January 10, 2004 9:53 AM Re: Need help with diet We use kudzu all the time.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 BTW there is no virus protection program that is perfect. Mine gets updated constantly so it is always up to date. - eye of newt Saturday, January 10, 2004 4:53 PM Re: Need help with diet SYLVIA TERRY at samzco34 wrote: > It was a joke !

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 Hi, I have gotten help with going raw and my son has done it for aboout 1 week and says it will not work for him. He has been to lots of dr for his problem also. He can't digest nuts or any grains raw or cooked. fruit makes his symptoms worse. I'm not sure what I want to know but do any one know where he might get some help? Or do you think going on green drinks would help him. He is thinking that he would loss weight and he has none to lose. He has also spent lots on different drinks and pills that have done him no good. He has had problems with food since he was a baby.

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 Nuts and seeds are easier to digest if they have been soaked and then " cultured " with probiotics, but i would say more than anything is to make his mind that it will work, because from what you have described he sounds like he has little faith. All i'm saying is that if i want to be successful in something i decide that it will work before i proceed, not filled with doubts and worries and fear! If he says that it will not work for him, then chances are he's already made up his mind to be limited to that fate, but if you can change his thinking first there might be more chance for a successful outcome. rawfood , " trills4u " <potato wrote: > > Hi, I have gotten help with going raw and my son has done it for aboout > 1 week and says it will not work for him.

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 Theresa, You still haven't listed what is wrong with your son-? :-) You didn't list his symptoms or what he " has " ... Raw foods does work for everybody because it's science, not " a diet " . Your son would perhaps be one of those that does well on a balanced organic vegan diet of about 80% raw or so and 20% cooked. You also didn't mention his name, etc. Erica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 Hi and thankyou for your help. I know how to soak nuts and seeds but how do you culture with probiotics? That I'm not sure what you mean since I'm kind of new at this raw food thing also. Theresa \o/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 You might have him read a little book called The Raw Family and check out their website, www.therawfamily.com Good stories by the Boutenko children of their journey and healing while on a raw diet. ..wyn The Raw Retreat http://www.TheRawRetreat.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Hi, My son has had Celiac disease since birth. He started to lose weight about 3 years ago now. He went to the dr and they said nothing was wrong with him. He is 5,11 I think and his weight was 135, he went down to 109 now is back up to 115 but still looks bad. He has been checked for aids and other things I'm not sure of what now. He is going to a wholest dr now and has gotten some help. He told him he had candida a diet of lots of cooked meat no fruit. Then he got sick and had to go to another dr because this dr is over 150 mi away. this dr did test him for crohn's, and colites but said that it did not come back saying he had either but he also said that he still could. Our family dr said that it is all in his head. Oh yes, his name is mark and he has a twin that has it also but not as bad. Mark has always been sicker than is brother. since he is now over 21 I don't keep up with all that is wrong with him but he has now come to me about it since I'm doing so good on the raw.
