I’m going on a raw food diet and my mom went to the store and bought some questionable foods…

-Multigrain Flax Crackers
-Roasted sunflower seeds
-Granola (it says organic cereal)

And are things that say "organic" considered appropriate for a raw food diet?
thanks!

I am taking 3gr of pure organic spirulina a day and adding Omega 3/6 from flax seeds 1.000mg and extra vit C 1gr daily from easter C. Also all this with helthy diet.
Do you think I am getting enough from all the vitamins and minerals from Spirulina? Do I need to take any extra supplements? as I have Anemia and gastrites?!

If you tell someone to try a natural, organic diet free of preservatives and chemicals, they resist it, but will pop a pill of even more toxic stuff? I was in seriously poor shape two years ago with a multitude of problems, including lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, hidradenitis and thyroid problems. When I stopped eating processed food, and eliminated wheat, soy and eggs from my diet, the symptoms cleared up. I wonder why many people don’t realize the toxins that are in commercial meats, milk and processed food? All you have to do is read the label to see how bad it is!
I enjoy a lovely diet of fresh, organic veggies, rice pastas, fruits, fish, seafood, rice, quinoa, millet, flax, nuts, seeds, berries, etc. I dont feel deprived at all. Its the toxic artificially enhanced stuff that I am refering to. My diet is much more enjoyable and :"comforting" to me now, and my 12 year old is thriving on it!

I bought 1 lb of "organic" flax seed for .90. ( I’m in Canada ) I than happened to notice that at the grocery store flax seed in the bulk bins was .28 /lb!!! How do I know that the stuff in the home made looking bag and label at the "Health Food Store" isn’t just the stuff from the grocery store marked up in price? Is there any type of regulation when they get there business licence? Or any type of "checking"?

Hi breastfeeders & breastfeeders-to-be!
I nursed three very healthy babies, and created this herbal pad out of necessity. It has been the one baby shower gift and companion for Mommy that continues to be raved about. Every mom I have given it to says they couldn’t do without it. BoobEase™ provides calming comfort and care for mastitis, plugged milk ducts & overfull breasts, and promotes healthy milk flow.
All herbs (Lavender, chamomile & flax seed, plus about a dozen others) are organic and come from trusted sources. The pad is made from muslin, with a washable flannel cover. It is a hefty 8" X 12", and it weighs over a pound!
All you do is pop it in the microwave for a minute or so to heat it up. It stays warm for a good half hour, at least.When you put it on a sore breast, the heat, weight and scent can just take you to another world. It is so calming and healing. Please see my site at www.myshininglight.com/BoobEase.com to order.

Happy nursing!!!

I know everyone is different, it has been 7 weeks since my husband cold turkey put down pain killers, is addiction was only 4 months in duration, but he can not regain energy. We have tried B complex and flax seed, suggested by the Dr. Also the energy vitamin packs at GNC for men. I don’t want him to become addicted to Mt Dew and Red Bull, or other energy drinks. I just ordered Maca today, a chinese organic product. He wants to stay O-natural! Any suggestions?
