What do you do for protein and calcium?
ReplyDeleteDo you drink only water?
Hello there and thanks for posting a comment question!
ReplyDeleteRegarding Calcium: Many raw foods are a good source of calcium - here is a link to an article that describes the foods that are especially high in that important mineral:

Raw food also has protein in ample supply. One of the ways I was overeating the wrong foods before adopting a raw food lifestyle, was in getting too much calorie dense protein and fat in meats. As I mentioned here in my blog, I'm eating about 15 per cent cooked food now, and that is usually some sort of fish, lean game meat, or eggs. But a person can also get plenty of protein from 100% raw food through leafy greens, brazil nuts, flax seeds, and many other raw foods.
Here's a link to an article that has lots of great suggestions:

I drink all kinds of liquids, including water. I try to stay away from sugar loaded soft drinks, and almost never drink them. I don't drink coffee everyday, but I do occasionally have a cup. I love fresh squeezed juices and veggies but I have not invested in a juicer, so I get them at juice shops like IntaJuice. I also like MixOne, a juice and veggie drink made in Boulder Colorado. I like them for a quick breakfast, and some have a protein added which I like. I also love Odwalla superfood, which has spirulina and other superfoods. Acai drinks are yummy too, and sometimes for a "pick me up" I'll have a glass of water with "Emergen-C", which is a powder that contains Vitamin C and tastes great.
Thanks again for your comment - it was my first one! Whoever you are...
