My package has arrived! super foods not so super?!

Hello!
My wonderful box arrived today from http://www.detoxyourworld.com/acatalog/
which included; 100g Maca root
100g Carob powder
1Fl oz Marine phytoplankton-- see for benefits www.thebestfoodever.com/oceans-alive
142g Natures living superfood-- see for benefits http://www.detoxyourworld.com/acatalog/nls.html
20g crystal manna flakes-- see for benefits http://www.ancientsuninc.com/crystalmanna

I added some NL super food and Crystal manna to my juice this morning, and i have to admit, it was a bit like drinking pond water..! Im sure the flavour will grow on me..well i hope so, im meant to double the dosage at some point!
I am pleased with the MPP (marine phytoplankton) i added 6 drops in a glass of water with some lemon juice and within minutes i got an energy rush. Im still buzzing now! I will have it in the morning and before bed i think. It will help the cells repair and assist my body in doing what it needs to do at night i hope.
I will not continue on with BOTH NLSF and CM as i cant afford them, especially with the price of MPP, so we will have to see which one i prefer. I must admit, i am taken back and impressed at the amount of ingredients in NLSF though.

Now the carob and maca are a different story!
Somebody should have warned me....and i wouldn't have WASTED £3.55 each on them both!!
I was really looking forward to trying them, seeing as i like cacao so much. I though these would be nice too...but oh no, my tastebuds dislike.
Now i have to find something to wo with 100g of maca and carob powder!


Anyhoo i also bought some PH strips to test myself. I was 7.5 (great!) and then 6.5.....and then 6! whats going on i thought..ive eaten nothing but green foods all day!
A bit taken back by this, i did a little research and some questioning and apparently fat can cause the body to go acidic. Now i am eating up to 2 avocados a day, which IS a lot of fat, especially for a raw foodie like myself, so next week when the avo's have ran out, i will reduce my fat intake and see where that takes me. Ive been wanting to do that anyway, so here's a good excuse!

I also have ordered a couple of books. David Wolfe's 'eating for beauty' and 'sunfood diet success systems' which i am really looking forward to receiving.
I also have received Enigma, the cross of changes. I just LOVE that CD so i have been listening to it at bed time and have been drifting off nicely into my sleep, where recently the oddest dreams have been awaiting me! You know what, ive researched them, and they are all mean bad things! great!!!!

anyway im tired and my enigma CD awaits!
Adios!

cacao overdose!

Hey,
Earlier i decided to make double choc chip ice cream with frozen chocolate sauce. Well Ive just eaten the whole tub. it was DELICIOUS! Except now i have excruciating stomach pains and gas :(
oh dear Cherry, you have eaten toooo much!
I think i have over indulged in cacao this weekend and its time to seriously cut it out of my diet for a little while.

Its not the cacao that's giving me the stomach pains, its bad food combining and grazing all day, rather than eating when I'm hungry. I deserve it. In fact I'm grateful for it because it will teach me a lesson. A very painful lesson.

One thing i forgot to write in my previous post was a short dream i had. I'm my dream, it was the weekend and i made a decision to eat normal chocolate. as soon as i ate it i regretted it because i was no longer 100% raw, i had failed myself because i didn't need to eat it, i wasn't craving it and there was no reason for me to consume the chocolate.
When i woke up, i was so relieved it was just a dream. It made me realize how important this lifestyle is to me, and how important it is to me to be and stay 100% raw.
