I've read that fruit acids will temporarily soften the enamel. So brushing your teeth right after drinking or eating may do more harm than good. I will brush my teeth once in the morning waiting 20 mins. before drinking my green smoothie. When eve...

Hi Bette, FWIW, I've heard of others who have had tooth problems with drinking fruit juice on a regular basis. You might try doing greens only or eliminating the juice for a period and see if that helps. Please let us know if you find anything out...

Laurie replied to Jen's discussion 'Tooth Health?'

Hi Bette, I'm very interested in tooth issues. Do you add fruit juice to your green juices? Do you brush immediately after eating fruit or acidic foods (I've read that it's best to brush beforehand, and wait at least an hour after acidic foods.)?...

Back on Track- YAY!

My pity-party is over, and while the cooler autumn air is making me crave home-baked goodies, I feel like I'm getting back on track. Morning green juice and green smoothies can make all the difference in the world, as well as yummy dehydrated treats. Lessons learned: I may get off track again, but BE PREPARED for those times in advance. Make an allowable treat list to help overcome those times. Don't spend time dwelling on the oops'ies', but GET ON with the Journey!! Happy Raw Fest Sedona'ers!!… Continue

Why oh Why

I was SO positive going into this- and then always seem to hit a block about 3-4 wks into my journey-- I wonder why that is. There are days I don't care and knowingly head for the ice cream treat drive thru- ugh! My killer headache is telling me how dumb that is! But I guess that's not really true-- if I really didn't care, none of this would bother me. Time for some soul searching.... I've got to put an end to the doubt and just do it!!!

Silly Silly Girl!

Aghh! And to think a month ago I was worried about eating cooked corn. Well-- I've totally fallen off the wagon. I KNEW it was going to be a busy 2 weeks full of travel- and thought I was prepared. However, with a few days of authentic Mexican food, 2 visits to major country fairs, and travel accross the country- let's just say raw did not win out. But thankfully, I remembered to check back in to RawFu and find I'm not alone. Hello raw community again--- sorry for not upholding my end of the dea… Continue

confessions of a RawFu-er who's done wrong :(

Yeah- it's day 4. Figured I keep things honest and confess my raw food sins to the rawfu world.

Went to the farmer's market and came back with lots of goodies- yum! And lots of fresh corn for the family- double yum! I tried it raw and it was wonderful- but had to cook it for my family-- did I save some to eat raw?

No :( Old habits won over. 4 buttery ears later I got to the point where I would normally say- "oh well- I've ruined this challenge, forget the rest of it," then head to the s… Continue
