 Its just amazing how such little things could have such a huge impact on your health. Grains and legumes have both been declared as nutritious and a necessary part of our diets. What most of us havent been told is the best ways to eat them. Sure cooking these little fellows may be of some benefit...they will keep you alive in famine, but they are not the most nutritious foods to live on. But sprouting them however is another matter! Sprouted grains,legumes, beans( Wheat,barley,oats,lentils,black eyed,mung beans,chickpeas,radish,alfalfa,brocolli,to name just a few)Quinoa,Amaranth,buckwheat,(which is not a grain) and even soaked nuts and seeds(Chia,flax,sunflower,millet seeds) are another class altogether. Sprouts are alkaline foods,and our diets must be made up of at 80% of Alkaline foods to maintain a healthy state. *Sprouting increases enzyme activity from 6 to 20 times! (Enzymes are absolutely essential, for the body to work efficiently ... are vital for life.
