Food Rules: A Completely Different Way To Fix The Health Care Crisis
I have found in my own diet that foods such as grains and legumes are far more nutritious and benifitial when given the time for enzymes to develope. Example: take some spelt or kamut or other grain and soak it overnight with enough water. The next day put it in a blender small amounts at a time. Make as thick or as thin as you wish. Thin for pancakes thicker for breads. Put your yeast in with out processed salt. Taste the result. Then take just flour and bake it and taste the result. I find a warmth and a feeling of satisfaction and quinched hunger when I eat the partially sprouted that includes the sprout water. That is not the case with the plain flour. My only explanation is one is a whole grain that the enzymes that have unlocked the nutrition.
So a rule might be: unless it can sprout you loose most of the nutrition- so satisfy your hunger with less tax on your own body by letting the wee little creatures have a go at it first and conserve your resources for other functions. Bob C
