A coconut husk mulch works great for growing aloe. Lots of sunshine fresh air rainwater and good drainage. Cut the leaf when the moon is waning for less bitterness and to be nicer to your plant. The flower is lovely! Blend inner gel with fresh lemon and white rind and local unheated honey to drink for lungs and constipation.  Do not drink if you are weak and ill. Apply gel to skin for sunburn. Do not..if you have serious reactions to anything. Aloe is fantastic..but Ive seen dangerous and awful reactions in a few from both and either topical/internal fresh plant "done right".

    Ive seen similar leaves used to reduce pain in cancer patients by slicing the leaf flatwise..making shallow crisscross. Cuts in the gel..and strapping it to the afflicted part.. aloe skinside out.

   I tried that drink! Its from some exotic fruit. I forget the name. Yes..tasted good!

I don't know if it really did anything for me, but aloe vera mixed with grapefruit juice is pretty good.

Also there's a health food store that sells a couple different ones. One of them is just straight up juice and it's tolerable but I suspect there's not much to it after the processing.

The other one I buy once in a while when I'm out and about and thirsty- it has a couple different juices and the aloe vera is all in pulp form- it's kinda weird to drink but tastes awesome and felt really amazing when I had a sore throat. So there may be something to it.

    You've probably heard of nitrite and nitrates as additives to hot dogs and bacon to persevere them in the plastic package so they'll basically never break down nor decompose through bacteria. Celery is a natural nitrite used by bacon and I think corned beef at Trader Joe's etc.  Probably why aajonus will say to drink your celery juice at least an hour apart if not two from your meat meal(s)..and he lumps chicken in as a meat. I know some believe only red meats are meat. I heard one woman teaching her kid that fish are flowers. My Mom made sure we ate some red meat every day in my formative years. That's how that generation was in the US.

I ate some raw chicken for first time recently. It was fine. I blended it with some celery - it made the most disgusting looking thing I've seen in a while, but it tasted good!

I've eaten some raw pheasant, too. I don't really like it, the texture of it or the flavour really. But I ate it and it made a meal.

    Good luck with those floods GS!!

    I'm eating an organic nectarine, a raw pasture raised egg, a spoon of unheated honey with the rest of the cup raw grassfed unpasteurized and unhomogenized yellow local thick jersey colostrum.

    Thanks, Cherimoya!

    I had a bad experience. A "friend" apparently ate my pets before (chickens/rabbits), like twenty years ago during my veg decades.  I liked them (the animals). He was not a Rawist person though. I guess I have nothing to be concerned of now.  We're definitely different.

If she is nutritionally deficient and cannot clot, our first aid for clotting is kamote tops leaves. Drink 2x a day.

    Outside of the tropics you might not find camote tops so fast. They say AV would recommend taking savoy or other green or white cabbage and run it through the juice extractor for her to drink and get the clotting factor Vitamin K.

    GS, is it okay to use camote cut from any time of the month? We are just after full moon now, so I am assuming this is the best time for the leaves to be cut for the plant and its nutritents it provides for the nutritional deficiency? What kind of difference can it make for this camote recipe? It's like a Japanese sweet yam plant, right?

    I don't think there's any way her urine would do anything but good for her cut, unless perhaps she has a urinary tract infection.

    Raw fruit only I had clear skin. Waterfasting my skin was clear but lost collagen. Ann Wigmore's livingfood lifestyle my blackheads went away. Regular raw vegan made me too sick. Primal Diet makes my skin healthy in every unimaginable way. Mixing it with a little cooked I got various bumps.

Good thing, because I would hate to not be able to enjoy all of that cooked food, and being symptom free is getting super boring...said no one ever. ROFL!

    Of course I know the one person in the world who actually said they were bored of being symptom free with natural diet, so the person went back to candy-bars and the rest.  I have to laugh at me dealing with the people I've known outside this forum.  If they hear me laughing enough, they join in laughing too and then they laugh at them-self, which is healthy to do.

left after burning wood and other substances, that cannot be good for you to ingest.

    I still haven't tried it.   I actually read some convincing stuff (not in pd papers) about charcoal over burnt BBQ.  I still have the full bag.  Maybe I'll try it soon to tell you and Raw-Al and see if I can locate what I read about it.  It was over a year ago and I just moved.

    I still stick by terramin.  It is an amazing healing thing.

    Are you on the primal diet?  I see no other info about you besides this post.  How do you care for your teeth now?

By far the most amazing way to brush my teeth was with pure tea tree oil extract

    Ben, I apologize if this is what you're angry about. If it's about me posting I didn't like the taste of the beef-heart on 30BaD, that seems likely given the timing of your pm, even though it's the only other thing I ever saw you post.  Whatever it is, please don't be vulgar next time.  Enough.

   As for you being raw paleo, I believe you are.  Post!

    While traveling for work, do you eat in restaurants or get food delivered room service from the hotel cafeterias?   There might not be much raw available, but if you talk directly with the hotel M.O.D. and restaurant chef, and tell them you know and accept the risks, they may give you raw eggs, fish and meat.

    I don't use recipes usually.  I think there are some good ones in Recipe for Living Without Disease.  I can't drink kale smoothies  with any kind of sweet or sour fruit or any kind of milk etc except maybe lemon. I create as I go. If I were to use maca in a smoothie, I think I'd add cream and soaked vanilla bean.  I rarely ever make smoothies any more.  Good luck! and welcome!!

    Hi Joy,

    I've never tried cooked kidney, I don't know how to compare it for the eating experience.  I've seen recipes for how to prepare it, I've just never had any feeling I should try it. I can't imagine it would be healthy for me to eat it cooked. 

    My diet has not been consistent all the time. It seems kidney takes it away faster, and dairy brings some back sometimes. The raw grass fed cultured never been frozen butter has not been a problem as for health effect on me ever.
