Guest guest Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Dennis Welcome. Sprouting is a very healthy aspect of a healing path and symptoms come and go for a variety of reasons. I wouldn't want to go in to a debate on it but I think alphalpha has been termed the king of foods. Get in touch with your body and try lots of different things and see what you respond to?

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Ann Wigmore recommended sunflower seed sprouts and wheatgrass juice in her diet. I've tried clover, mustard (hot!), sunflower, mung bean... as Kirk said, experiment, and see what benefits you get. >From: Kirk <jlcgull@...> >Date: Thu Jan 12 16:48:19 CST 2006 > >Subject: Re: newbie on the list >Dennis > Welcome.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 thank you for the advice :-) what brought up my interest in raw foods is that yesterday the doc told me i'm a type two diabetic. whoopee pickle on that one :-/ so, what i'm really after is sort of a recipe for raw glop(?) of some kind that contains complete nutirtion i can make up in bulk quantities. i hate to cook anyway. i've already got bee pollen and royal jelly figuring heavily into the equation. now sprouts are on the list too. if anyone can think of other ingerdients, please let me know. regardez vous, Dennis 003marklanders@... wrote: Ann Wigmore recommended sunflower seed sprouts and wheatgrass juice in her diet.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Wrong idea, Wrong Hands :-). The whole point of sprouting is to eat fresh, raw food. This has _something_ (see previous posts on energy) that processed or cooked foods don't supply. If you don't mind being weird you can carry baggies of still-growing sprouts with little packets ketchup/mustard/hot sauce. Much better than glop. >From: The Wrong Hands <with_favas_bean@...> >Date: Thu Jan 12 19:57:39 CST 2006 > >Subject: Re: Re: newbie on the list >thank you for the advice :-) > what brought up my interest in raw foods is that yesterday the doc told me i'm a type two diabetic. whoopee pickle on that one :-/ > so, what i'm really after is sort of a recipe for raw glop(?) of some kind that contains complete nutirtion i can make up in bulk quantities. i hate to cook anyway. > i've already got bee pollen and royal jelly figuring heavily into the equation. > now sprouts are on the list too. > if anyone can think of other ingerdients, please let me know. > regardez vous, > Dennis > > >003marklanders@... wrote: > Ann Wigmore recommended sunflower seed sprouts and wheatgrass juice in her diet. >I've tried clover, mustard (hot!), sunflower, mung bean... as Kirk said, experiment, and see what benefits you get. >>From: Kirk <jlcgull@...> >>Date: Thu Jan 12 16:48:19 CST 2006 >> >>Subject: Re: newbie on the list > >>Dennis >> Welcome.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Hello, Dennis, welcome. Good idea joining us. There's even lots to enjoy in past posts here, I've learned a lot in the past month or 2. I'm trying them all, they all are fun, too. You can do them in a blender with water or other things. For that, I sometimes cut away some of the white stem/root parts of the sprouted seed. Look online for mung things to do -- those grow fast and get big, but they have their own flavor. The Grapefruit Seed Extract really does work gr8. It keeps them free of molds, fungus, and bacteria. You can even add a very dilute amount to the presoak and you can rinse (I keep it in a sprayer bottle, then let it on a minute or two before the daily rinse.) Plus it's useful for so MANY other things. You can read about it online. They say that broccoli sprouts have 50 times or MORE of the beneficial substance touted for regular food broccoli. I mean the reg veg we eat with meals. So I'm making sure to use the broccoli sprouts. I like to drink them. My Vita-Mix is great for busting the cell walls open and I feel like I'm getting more than the 50+ out of them. I got a test done and they checked for type 2 also -- I had a 118 count and medications are REQUIRED at 126 -- so I guess that's " pre " diabetic, too. Only thing is I found one gr8 thing that really works on it. I know this because I work out at a fitness center, exercising at least 3 times a week. When I stay on this -- I NEVER get woozy and I always have good energy. I can FEEL that my muscles are absorbing the energy when I'm on the elliptical machine -- I have plenty of strength and my muscles feel calm, not stressed. I know it's this simple, natural supplement doing it because if I stay off of it (I only take one a day, not 2 as the directions for use suggest on the bottle) if I stay off of it, the old exercise stress and muscle fatigue during the work out comes back in a week or so. A few days back with it, and it's good again. I was really pleased to find something so simple, basic and JUST A FOOD (not really a laboratory supplemental concoction) that helped in this way. And the difference is really evident. I would try consuming coconut oil for about 2 months on a daily basis too. It's just good for you and I read in my health magazine this month that there are NO precautions or reactions of any kind with coconut oil. It is a plain food. It's just that it can have marked benefits to general health when you include it in your diet. For sure. Anyway, here's the link to look at. I KNOW that this chain would never put anything questionable on their shelves. You can just SEE that they don't have anything for that that somebody could ever possibly claim was responsible for some bad health even developing as a result of their store. It must be like when insurance companies used to require safety measure and no smokers for fire insurance policy compliance. Or maybe their lawyers recommend only time tested and " safe " availability. Well for whatever reason. I think this particular version of theirs is THE ONE, very good product, their brand for this supplement; they have to order online : http://www.thevitaminshoppe.com/store/en/browse/sku_detail.jsp;jsessio nid=2ZUSWB3XRC0JMCQUC4YFAFYKCQL00UNE?id=VS-2361 They do have other brands, but I was happy with theirs. Sometimes I wonder about the " store brand " -- they should use me for a rabbit in a lab, I can just tell about quality sometimes after consuming something. I like many of their store brands at this company, which is unusual. Otherwise I often go with a known company/known brand -- it's generally tested and road testes with a bigger name. When it comes to nutrition supplements, I mean. Anyway, as you can see, I tend to ramble on and on. So I'll stop, I'll stop.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Whoops, messed up the wording there. What I really meant was : They don't put things on their shelves that anyone could come back and claim cause a health problem. ALSO They have the product available to order online, you don't have to go to one of their stores. Also, they sell the grapefruit seed extract online. Incidentally both of these are CHEAP so far as supplements go -- five or six dollars. Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Yeah verily. Changing your attitude to food by eating living things will really help you in lots of ways. My sprouts stay fresh in the fridge for up to a week and I like to take some time preparing meals now. Used to hate cooking and be a real speed chef. However if you want to get mean and lean with your time in the kitchen you can get a salad together pretty quickly and eat as much as you want because cost is no object when you sprout.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 The folks around here take a tsp of cinnoman everyday in regard to their diabetes. Probably some info on the web about it. Also, Pignaginal (sp) grapeseed extract is also supposed to help. More research. Thank goodness for the internet.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 You want alfalfa sprouts, kelp, nutritional yeast, blackstrap molasses, rose hips, seeds, nuts, leafy green vegetables, fruit, beans, grains and of course, additional sprouts. The first five deliver much of the complete nourishment you want and the rest have fats/oils, protein, carbohydrates, phytochemicals and roughage you also require. Also try MSM - organic sulfur since it is not in all soils where food is grown and your body really needs sulfur to work at a cellular level. KAL (brand) FLAKE (product type) is the best yeast in my opinion because it has higher amounts of b's (the flake type) than the powder and has a good taste. I'm vegan, also type 2 diabetic and do well.
