I love green bananas. I guess I´m the only one.

[RawRadiantHealth]

I have to confess, so do I!!!! But--- they are very hard on the body, very acidic, mucous forming in the digestive track and clogging/constipating. I don't buy green bananas to rippen because I know I will eat them and thats not good for me!!!

[81manitoba]

great great tips. it is sad that eating healthy can cost so much even just for fruits and veggies. I'd love to buy all organic, it's just not in the budget. some things we do, some we don't. just curious if you have a video about how you grow your own sprouts? if not could you do one?

[RawRadiantHealth]

I can't wait for the day that organic fruits & veg is everywhere and cheap-- the norm! Yes I'm getting videos ready to teach how to sprout, stay tuned!

[lovingtheglam]

You're in Montreal? So am I! I'd love to get your opinion on working through a raw food diet while in college if you ever get time :)

Oh hey! Have you heard about - fast abs magic (do a google search)? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my buddy got ripped 6 pack abs and lost a ton of fat with it.

[jackjacky653954]

Alright there! Have you thought about - fast abs magic (do a google search)? Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my BF got beautiful Six pack abs and lost crazy amounts of belly fat with it.

@MsSweetPuppy Crank up the Google. It's very easy to grow clover and other sprouts in a wide-mouth jar. Cheers!

[alexandrahh0]

I tried quite a few of the points discussed here, but I must state that absolutely nothing compares to DietOramy diet regime with regard to health and fitness and fat burning - search google, there's a great deal of totally free information...

[hihijesushi]

You are bad ass!

[SpoeG3]

I'm really glad I found your channel. Lots of helpful info and tips!

[martynblackburn1977]

Fruit and veg is notoriously expensive over here. 96p for a cucumber. Horrendous.

[MsSweetPuppy]

when you said sprouts, did you mean alfalfa sprouts? You said they were cheap and nutritous so I was wondering what sprouts you were talking about. You also said you can grow them yourselves - can you elaborate on that - how I might do that and also if I grow them myself, is there a lot of nutrition in them if I grow them myself. I'm on the verge of changing to a raw food diet. I am obese and have a LOT of weight to lose, but after researching this, I realize this is the way I want to go...

[christophermcne]

Ok...

[ceranko]

Carrots,apples,bananas,spinach­,kale, bags of blueberries and strawberries bags of mixed fruit. Juice them. I think people that don't want to eat produce because its expensive are lazy. Eating a fast food meal every day twice a day is about 15.00. You can buy a ton of produce for that amount in the store. I really don't understand. A BAG of apples costs like $3.75. ? Bananas . 49 cents a pound. You could buy tons of bananas, just peel them and stick them in the freezer in a gallon bag. LAZY!

[kkierekp]

apples skin on or off are the most chemical dirty fruits that you can buy. Check out the "clean" and "dirty" fruits and veggis web site to find out what is alright to eat when it was grown conventional.

[SofakingPastey]

I like seriously love you!

[InnerTubing2]

@RawRadiantHealth What do you mean you can't wait for the day the organic is everywhere and cheap? When will that be? Sounds fantastic!!!

[bishonenchan]

organic berry's hahahaha only in america 

[CBasie2856]

Its ridiculous. Everywhere at my regular grocery store, there are fruits sold individually for 70 cents or so. I should be able to get a bunch of them for 3 or so bucks.

Melons are usually around 1 buck each. and melons are very low in calories :(

the only thing i can do is get nuts and seeds mostly because they are cheap and nutritious and calorie dense.

[gurdjieff46]

Thanks for the great info and the money saving tips.

[mohair3]

I just love your videos..you are so inspiring and I can feel your energy.

I wish my greens were organic but when I go to the store, they don't really look as good as the non organic. They have been sitting on the shelf for a long time because they don't sell as fast as the non organic. So I'm gonna look for a wash of some kind to maybe help cleanse the greens. However I read in Mother Earth News that the seeds are soaked in a herbicide before planting which is a systemic poison.

[worldviewtuber]

In this country over the last ten to 15 years - in the UK - we have an initiative first started by the then 'new Labour' government started a HAZ - i.e. 'health action zone' - for people on a low wage or welfare benefits - cooking healthily on a 'tight budget' - this initiative also gave a boost to people have 'an allotment' - a patch of land owed by the local government and rented to local residents. Many scientists say once washed and peeled most fruits and veg are just fine. Thanks anyway!

[AYYYYYYE1]

do you have to eat nutts and seeds going raw?????:( ughhhhhh

[Cedartree5]

I didn't think about the whole chemical pesticide thing. I'll have to start buying my strawberries organic. Thanks for the info..... btw you would look hot in dreads, just saying
