I'm wondering if you followed the diet correctly which can easily be done as this is a challenging diet in the beginning. Did you balance fat with carbs? Did you eat too much/too little protein? Was your fish really fresh and raw? Did you eat enough? These are all factors in acne and it does take so...

I remember the first couple of times I did this diet that I would be sitting down somewhere and those addictive urges suddenly came to me. It was hard to shake those thoughts.

Sometimes it would keep me up at night.
Determination is the key.

Re: Water's Effect on Bad Protein/Salt

What I was wondering is how exactly does the water prevent or mitigate the effects? Is it only a means for helping avoid bad protein being introduced into the blood stream? It helps deport the "dirty" protein because the water will be excreted and this will take with it salt, protein and other wast...

Tropicana is a good bet.
I didn't mean to dissuade you from that, just wondering if it was possible to bring some oranges along.

Fresh juice lasts maximally about 2 days!
You can't hand juice em?
But then again bringing three crates is almost absurb but I did once for a family vacation trip.

Re: Raw Butter

Why exactly is it better than other extra virgin oils in your opinion? Well. I've heard that olive oil can throw your fatty acid profile of whack if eaten too much. True, but that is why you need to eat raw fish like tuna salmon and some egg yolks which have the other fatty acids you need which kee...

Most, if not all the time they are not sun dried, thus they contain some 'dirty' protein. Unless they are specified as being sun dried then they probably aren't. But you could experiment and see how much of an effect they have on your skin. Luckily fruit contains the least amount of protein in gener...

After a hot shower your pores will have opened up.
Try gently squeezing them with a tissue over your fingers.
You should only do it when they are ready and easily come out.

I did experience some tooth demineralization, but I'm not sure if that was the toothpaste. I don't use toothpaste and ever since I stopped, my teeth are fine. This is the only major problem I can see with this diet, yet there are factors which play a role. As of now, my teeth are fine as long as I m...

My saliva feels thicker and more able to cope with the acidity of the fruits. The response is faster too, to acidic fruits. But too acidic like not-quite-there pineapple will still burn my tongue and make my teeth feel brittle if I eat too much of it.
It is such a tempting fruit!

Patience is virtue.
Perhaps it fosters thinking and deep thought.
But it does help most of the time.

Re: Pineapples

I don't often eat them, but the last few time I have I have come across a problem. I usually eat the whole pinapple over the span of several hours. Wow. Well, I have been getting a burning/stinging sensation on my lips and in my mouth. It is quite annoying and can get painful at times. Is this from...

Anyone can help me out, that would be awesome. Like Oscar and rischott, make sure to bring enough juice. Juice the oranges the b...
