I gotten the typical results of no acne, no bad breath, no negative body odor, smoother and softer skin, receding gums healing, etc.... However, I feel the most incredible result that I did not expect was how strong my immune system has gotten. Let me quickly mention that I took the Wai Diet princip...

Though freezing itself doesn't cause acne and doesn't produce cancerous byproducts, I read somewhere that is still negatively alters nutrients such as protein quality. Is that true?

I recall Wai saying that there really no such thing as "detoxification" in the sense that is used by many holistic modalities. For example, I have heard of people in yoga saying how sweating when doing yoga detoxifies the body. Personally, I think don't think there would be any difference if a chemi...

This cracker is so great that my 2 year old son can turn the lever to crack the nut. That's how little strength it takes!

You're talking about making a smoothie. If I am doing that, it is easy to get in the necessary fat. I'm talking about when I eat something like dried mangos.

I bought a hand held nut cracker from nutsline.com and it wasn't that great. I bought Brazil nuts and it look forever to get the nuts out of shell and most of the time, I ended breaking the meat of the nut. I felt like I really had to work my grip strength and endurance to crack the nut. So I ended ...

I'll have to deal with that when the time comes. I have some unorthodox opinions on schooling, so I'll have to see what I end up deciding to do with my kids situation in the future.

Here's something I was wondering....

Let's say coconut oil has an SPF of 2 and macadamia oil has an SPF of 6. If I put both oils on my skin does that give me an SPF protection of 8?

I read in a certain raw food book in reference to oils such as olive oil:

"Pressed oils often cause dry and acrid conditions in the body."

Is this true?

Did you buy the sesame seed oil locally or online? If online, where? I can't seem to find any sesame oil locally that isn't toasted.

I just foudn this online: * Hemp seed oil - SPF 6 * Shea Butter - Cinnaminic Acid - SPF 6 * Macadamia oil - SPF 6 * Sesame seed oil - SPF 4 * Jojoba oil - SPF 4 * Coconut oil - SPF 2 Of these oils which ones would you recommend for the skin and which ones should we stay away from?
