Definitely, the increased fiber can make a difference. But again, this should pass very quickly: the REAL problem behind digestive distress are dense, clogging foods and lousy combinations. If you feel some distress as you transition, eat a little more cooked veggies and blended soups, and progress sloooooowly. Gena Hey Emily!

Love reading about all your creative raw recipes. You are absolutely right that preventing calcium loss through the diet is important. Calcium absorption from foods is not equal. Some greens contain oxalic acid, which actually binds to calcium and prevents absorption. Fortunately kale has a very low oxalic acid content! :-) The black sesame spread looks absolutely delicious. I need some of that in my life! Do you think some of the initial discomfort/digestion issues people may experience after increasing their raw intake may be partially due to the increased fiber content in the diet? Hi Gena!

They are so vibrant and inticing. It conveys the energetic nature of the foods, but it also helps me visualize what you are talking about in the preparation. Thanks for taking the extra time to show everyone what you are doing. You are a great motivator. Lyn Gena,
