New to the group and I've got some questions...

[Guest guest]

Hello,

 

I have been lovin' 100% raw (2nd time around) for about 3 months now.

 

I have some questions I am hoping some people in the group might help

me answer.

 

Firstly, I am looking for a great air purifier that is also a

humidifier. I live on the west coast and it seems that having a

humidifier helps with the dust. The humidifier is not a must but seems

like a nice a bonus.

I was hoping some of you had some experience with air purifiers and can

point me in the right direction.

I was aiming for a model that had an ionizer, and killed bacteria, mold

etc... I have a large one bedroom apartment, facing an active street,

I have two dogs and we get many doggy visitors. So far the brands that

seem to stand out to me are:

Air-O-Swiss 2055 http://best-vacuum.com/aoswiss-2055.html

Sun-Pure UV Air Purifier http://www.baar.com/sunpure.htm

Living Air Classic www.livingairclassic.com

Spring Air http://www.cetsolar.com/springair.htm

 

Any thoughts???

 

My second question is for the raw joggers/runners out there. What is

your diet like in preparation for your runs? I have a pretty sensitive

digestive system so nuts are difficult for me. I enjoy them but when I

eat too many it totally slows me down. What do you do when your

feeling tired or fatigued?

 

My third question is regarding snacks... I live in Los Angeles and am

blessed to have a market loaded with yummy dehydrated treats (junk

food). The problem is that the nuts and dehydration tend to slow my

digestion down considerably and the snacks are both expensive and often

way too sweet. I am looking for some pudding like recipes to satisfy

my sweet cravings that contain little to no nuts and aren't overly

sweet. And I would like to make my own very thin crackers that aren't

all flax or at least overly flax. Maybe a ground flax plus ????

Any suggestions?

 

And finally, my last question is for the ladies... My last few moons

have brought out the wolf in me. I become extremely irritable

(EXTREMELY) and quite fatigued. I also start craving sweets. (I can

easily fly through a bag of dates, no problem.) It starts about two

weeks before menstruation. The problem with the sweet craving is that

now I seem to want sweet things A LOT. Since my last episode, I have

started taking evening primrose oil & hemp seed oil to up my EFA's and

GLA. And I started taking Jarrow's sublingual B-12. Does anyone have

any other recommendations? PLEASE!!

 

Thank you.
