Guest guest Posted April 16, 2005 Report Share Posted April 16, 2005 I want to thank Elchanon for acknowledging my joining the group Laurie had already fwd me a number of articals posted on here; I am thankful that you are " right there " with your values Elchanon! I really enjoyed your thorough replies; I have a passion for the study of Metaphysics; My favorite author being Joel Goldsmith. My Spiritual Nature has 'come' alive these past few years and more recently I have noticed how my mind was stuck in " knowledge " , which has simply brought about confusion! I just wanted to throw in a simple question; I am over here in U.K, having had also a rather long break from a 100% rawfood diet. Currently I am 'sitting' in an " acid bath " and preparing for a fast in approx 1 month's time. I am a sensitive individual with an exascerbated gut issue (which I am not intending to touch on here)I really dont get on that well with english fruit (or just england really!) I tend to live by oranges in the winter and peaches by summer. We rarely see a mango worth eating (I eat 100% organic which limits variety even further)and quite frankly the fruit season begins in July and ends in September (and you still rarely see a mango!) Now, in preperation for this fast and whilst awaiting my beloved peaches; I have taken to the bananas as Laurie suggested. I can eat near mono on these, with a salad and cukes' thrown in each day. I generally chose my food intuitively. Sometimes there is confusion however, when one is faced with nothing intuitive to eat owing to lack of variety! I picked up some French Strawberries - with a need to eat somewhat sparingly (also really expensive for my budget) Only a few pears cause I am " sick " of them. Grapes - something I never eat esp' if they have seeds in them - But actually they looked about the nicest option. Some apples - I can do 1 a day max without feeling colic. Some tomatoes - also need to eat moderately. A red pepper. Celery - I am inclined to make green juice on times, or eat celery most days around sweet fruit Cucumbers - i eat these every day. And plenty of greens - I crave the dark kind. Then there were these kiwis that were actually ripe for a change. I would'nt really bother eating pears, kiwis, grapes and less frequently an apple if I lived where tropical fruits were available. I'm having difficulty deciding whether I picked up these kiwis out of intuition of not? - and now I have confused myself into almost fear of them! I am focusing on alkalizing my body - it certainly needs a big input. Would you imagine that kiwis are not such a good choice? I was definitely drawned to the strawberries, but I tend to only eat 4-6 at a time and rarely on the same day as tomatoes. I am not intending to eat kiwis in large amounts and would only desire 1-2 as a meal in any event What do you think would be the best alkalizing choices for me at this time - out of the given selection?

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2005 Report Share Posted April 16, 2005 I think that Kay in England brings up an interesting question regarding this diet-- how are folks supposed to live primarily on fruit in climates such as this where the selection of fruit is naturally pretty limited? This does not seem to be a natural way to eat in this climate & one is forced to buy expensive produce that is shipped in from far away . . . any thoughts? how do folks eat this way in places like Alaska?!
