Vacuum sealed banana smoothies

Has anyone ever tried vacuum sealing smoothies in mason jars for consumption later in the day? How long would they hold up? It sure would make things a lot easier on me when I'm away from home.Continue

"I'm not sure how burnt food ash being acidic shows that raw food digestion creates acidic conditions in the stomach. I find your mention of Edgar Cayce intriguing though, I'm curious about what he had to say about it."

Profile Information

Our community would be delighted to know you better. Please tell us more about yourself and what brought you to 30BaD. Detailed responses will only be accepted (feel free to reapply with more detail if at first not approved as a member). We suggest you pick a name other than your own if you want to maintain anonymity.: I came across an article about depression and curing it with raw foods. My whole life I've been what I consider to be mildly depressed, so this article got my attention. Right away I started learning about raw veganism from various web sites, podcasts, videos, movies and books. I tried and failed a few times to go raw, mainly because my job was hectic and I was using that as an excuse to why I couldn't make the change. Fortunately I quit my job and started working for myself, eliminating that excuse. And after my last day of work with my old employer I made it a point to watch Earthlings for the first time (thinking it would help me move closer to becoming raw vegan). This was on 7/1/11 and half way into the movie I proclaimed myself vegan. About two weeks later I made the jump to raw and have been raw ever since. I have been through struggles and have experienced quit a bit but I still have much to learn and experience. I do know that I absolutely love this lifestyle and how it has transformed every part of my life though. I am a completely different person feeling better than I've ever felt my whole life. And I'm very grateful for this community. :)

At 1:03am on June 19, 2012, scotteatsfruit said…: Yeah, Hafiz is another Persian poet. Neat stuff - actually Daniel Ladinsky in South Carolina has published some pretty neat interpretations of Hafiz. "I Heard God Laughing: Renderings of Hafiz" is one of my favorites.

At 11:29am on April 10, 2012, HappySun said…: Hey, i really like to thank you for your post! I am definitaly going to read the book. I have immediately read a summary of it and this absolutely one of the best thing to do. The title of this book has always been attractive to me but i forgot that i wanted to read it. So thanks for reminding me of it. Some times I lived unconsiously following these principals but i had some kind of fall-backs... I saw you come from a depressive background which reminds me also to my background and motivates me to stay tuned. I understand the coherence between being undercarbed and being depressed. You also like conversations with god. Have you read the whole trilogy? Love
