@ Jenny - You said you have lots of saliva, are you also getting white gunk on your tongue, or 'thickness' in your mouth? If so, that's definitely detox! It doesn't feel so good, but it's definitely a good thing. If I may be so bold, I'd just like to caution you against taking a toddler totally raw (not sure if this is what you intend). Children have very different nutritional needs than us grown-ups, and it seems they do not do so well on 100% raw diets. Shazzie is a bit of a guru in raw circles, and she wrote a great article on how she is feeding her daughter, here. Good luck with your raw adventures, I'm looking forward to hearing all about them!

well, actually I started this week, but have a wedding on Sat night, so I am doing all raw this week until sat and then really starting on mon next week…I am planning on going for good:) I guess I am sort of like you in that I am looking for that thing that just really works for my body. I get so freaked out about processes foods and i just feel so much more comfortable eating foods that I know where they came from. It’s so funny, my four-year-old is joining me on raw (only because he just keeps asking for whatever he sees me eating) he is so interesting, my dad tried to give him mcdonalds when he was watching him once and he took a bite and spit it out and asked if he could make him a hummus sandwich:) P.S. felt great on raw yesterday, today have aches and little energy and lots of salivation….

Kombucha is alive so it is great for any diet. You have a really great blog here. You look great with those noodles hanging out of your mouth. Since you have a diamond ring on your left hand, I guess it was your husband who took those pictures.

@ TC – Well, I have my special sources for cheap produce. ; )

But, I decided a while back that I was just going to commit to eating healthily, even though it hurt the checkbook. I have certainly had to sacrifice in other aspects of my life. Everything is a trade off, no?

I’m intrigued. Mostly about the cost. If you’re eating all organic, it must be quite pricey. And you’re lucky to afford such luxury. ;~)
