Comments on: Raw Nuts Come Alive When Soaked http://joyfulchoices.com/2009/07/raw-nuts-come-alive-when-soaked/ Be Joyful, Be Mindful, Be Healthy Fri, 11 Jun 2010 07:51:45 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Joy http://joyfulchoices.com/2009/07/raw-nuts-come-alive-when-soaked/comment-page-1/#comment-250 Joy Wed, 10 Mar 2010 22:11:04 +0000 http://joyfulchoices.com/?p=212#comment-250 Hi Marly, Congratulations! Just being attentive to your body is so important. As you continue on your journey, you will find the perfect percentage for you, which might change from time to time. I agree, raw cashews are the greatest! Moderation is especially important with nuts, but when you're tuned into your body, there's much less forcing yourself to stop. You just eat what you need and stop. I want to mention that for many people the cashews or any nut with fruit can create some digestive problems. If that combination works for you, that's great. However, if you feel discomfort, stop the combination. I most like to eat my raw cashew cheese with baby romaine lettuce -- or any green or red leafy vegetable. Yum. Enjoy, Joy Hi Marly,

Recently my stomach was hurting so badly that I went raw for a couple of days and worked it all out. Now I'm shooting for a certain percentage of my day to be raw food. I absolutely love raw cashews - especially made into cashew "cheese". I like to dip my apples in a little bit of that...or my bananas. Like you say, moderation is the key, but that is so tasty. Thanks for the tips on soaking nuts. I have on only been trying raw food from time to time, but really like the way I feel when I do.
