I've read that it has all the same benefits of whole wheat. If you don't mind sharing your opinion, I'd love to hear it! Thanks I’m curious about your thoughts on white whole wheat flour.

Thoughts? Re: Soaking, say brown rice, where do you keep the pot of soaking rice for the seven hours? I know without a doubt that we cannot keep a pot of soaking rice on the stove or counter for seven hours. We live in TX and bugs become an issue if any food is left out. Also: Where does one find acid medium (I believe that is what you called it)?

I really enjoyed reading your suggestions and I am inspired to take baby steps towards natural eating! Since I decided to stay home full-time when my little girl was born 14 months ago, our family budget has gotten a bit tighter...and food seems to be the "hot item" up for discussion often ;). We want to live frugally and wisely and I want to feed my family nutritiously at the same time (if that's possible). I am just curious what you think feeding a family of three might be while taking your suggestions ;). Thanks!!

Your website continues to be such a help for me, thank you thank you! ? is, how did you know coconut oil is less refined than safflower, sunflower, etc oils? I read your link and saw that palm, sesame and flax oils may be just as good. I had heard Canola oil isn't as healthy and now understand with your explanation of the rape seed. Are safflower and sunflower also modified? I have told you about also having insomnia, I can't believe it this fourth baby's pregnancy has almost been completely insomnia free. (Due in 3 weeks!!! :) Email me or visit my blog to ask if you want to hear the story, and it may also be that pregnancies just vary thank goodness. However insomnia was a problem after 3rd pregnancy so I think I have found some answers. www.grawberriesandnuggles.hazubu.com or emballing@hazubu.com .....I sent this twice as my computer didn't indicate whether the message was being saved or not. :) Lindsay,

I stumbled here because a friend suggested a recipe of yours and I can't stop reading your blog! I have yet to find ONE thing I don't agree with!! You are doing a great job here! I'm a missionary in southern Mex with four little girls and a lot of the same passions as you. And I have a sweet little old lady who delivers fresh milk to our door every morning! I am very blessed!
