I did the master cleanse for 10 days a couple of years ago. It was amazing.

I have the same question as DragonTea, #47; In Wisconsin, ticks are already out in big numbers. I just pulled one off my son last week and I got lyme disease last summer…How do we keep the ticks off??

Okay I have been wanting to know-what do you do to keep the bugs from biting you. Ticks, mosquitoes, etc. There are a lot of ticks this year up in Maine-ugh.

I did a raw challenge for a whole week and I didn’t lose but one pound. I am eating great raw foods with a lot of walnuts and avocado. I am also exercising 4-5 days a week. Spinning classes/cycling mostly. What is wrong?

I have never juice fasted. It is something I’d like to do once I get a juicer but a high speed blender is first on the wish list. Actually, going to Tree of Life for a week is first on the wish list. Until then, I’ll just have to survive on plain ol food.

With the knowledge I have at the moment, I feel I’m doing okay. I eat two large salads each day that contain about five different kinds of greens, sprouts and nine different vege’s. I get four fruits in, chia seeds every day, a small amount of sunflower & pumpkin seeds in one of the salads and a handfull of nuts in the other three times a week. I also eat an avocado every day at this point with a blend of sprouts & five vege’s diced up small. I also add lemon juice & olive oil to my salads.

I also make up a drink every morning in the regular blender that’s more of a suppliment thing then anything else. I put maca, camu, zeolights, msm, honey, cacao & lemon in it. I take a few green marine whole food suppliments with this drink. So far, it’s working for me. I’ve gone from 186 lbs to 157 lbs sense January 1st.

As my knowledge evolves, I make changes. One of the biggest break through moments for me came when I was able to let go of fear and allow what I ate or did not eat to become a process of discovery as to what works for my body. I love this show because I can learn from folks who have different ideas but are all wanting the same outcome:health.

I do juice fasts, I do them every now and then to keep myself humble I’ve had mostly positive experiences, you just have to be careful what you do and know your body!

I have been raw for just over 4 months now and feel wonderful! I got rid of eating alot of nuts, seeds and avacado after the first three months. I never tried a juice fast and don’t know how to start so I look forward to the show for info.
