my acupuncturist is Elizabeth Schoultz. i wrote about her and my sister in my second book-The Raw 50
as for the weight, you have not given me enough info.
are you working with a doctor?
what is your diet? (vegan, carnivore etc?)
how much do you eat? what are you eating?
have you been tested for parasites?
there are so many factors!
this is why i tell people to work with a doctor–he follows just you and he can get to the intimate details of your life and make the little adjustments you need to gain the goals you want.
let me know how you are doing.

I am enjoying reading all of the posts and replies as it shows a real community growing and people are feeling healthy. I am looking forward to trying this way of nutrition.

I have seen you in person, shopping in the healthy food store
and you do have a glow about you!

it is easier to emulate someone that you see walking the walk.
thank you for leading the way.I really need to start and look forward to looking at your book. here is hope for the future.

Hi Tina,
i do not have children, but i believe that many women give their children raw goat’s milk–i know this cause they get it first from my supplier and if he has any left, then i get it!!
so i think that RAW fruits and veggies blended should be good to eat for anyone!
I think this is probably how Gerber’s started out, then they had to cook it to preserve it.
as for whole foods store, you can find some good stuff there. raw milk cheeses for example and raw nuts-
but going online is the easiest. i have listed some sites on my homepage…
hope this helps.

Hello Carol,
I just read the book “Knockout” by Susanne Sommers and it was amazing. I somehow was directed to your books by one of the doctors mentioned in there. I just read both of your raw food books and they are wonderful!! I’ve had several friends and family members diagnosed with cancer and just lost my 38 year old aunt to stomach cancer. I can’t believe how this is spreading. Being a healthy 31 year old with a 4 year old child I have decided to immediately learn about raw food and change our so called “American Diet.” I live down the street from a Whole Foods and I’m wondering if I should even be selective there? It seems like many of the foods they sell are full of sugar and processed to a point. My son’s diet has always consisted of wheat, flour products such as pasta, cereal & breads. Every meal has something with flour in it. I read in your book that wheat/flour products have been linked to asthma and my son has asthmatic reactions when he is running or has a cold. His doctor has prescribed Arbuterol on occasion when he is sick to open his lungs but I hate giving him anything. I am going to try a raw diet to see if I can incorporate healthy alternatives to his meals. Is there anything wrong with this diet for children?? Also, can children have the enzyme powders.

It’s been 2 weeks and I have already lost 5lbs. I’m not a larger person but my pants were starting to be a bit tight. I can’t believe how much better I feel….just hoping I can keep this up!

Thanks Carol,

Tina

Hi Aida,
you give me hope and inspiration!
God Bless you for writing to me.
your letter and letters like it-keep me going. Raw is such a difficult idea to teach. either you want the miracle or you don’t.
but some people don’t want it and they don’t want you to have it either.
it can be tough out there.
so i go on. trying to enlighten one spirit at a time.
and knowing there are others out there like me–wow, what a relief to know and to hear from them.
thank you,
ca

Hi barbara,

no and yes.
thanks for making it easy to answer you!
LOL

by the way, wheatgrass is ok, i just find i need a wider variety of nutrients so i do a powdered green drink that has wheat grass in it among other grasses.
and enzymes die in heat above 115 degrees F

Hi ulse,
i use a line that no longer exists as i was lucky enough to hear they were selling their stock pile, i bought it and refrigerated it.
but if i had to choose–and i mean HAD to choose?
bare essentials and i hear TART is ok, too.
if all goes well with my skin care line, i would like to do some makeup–
because, yes, there is a need for it.
hope this helps?
