Guest guest Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 I'm not EW but wanted to throw my 2 cents in. Because of all the beneficial live enzymes in young sprouts-and broccoli in particular, they can aid in detox and anti inflammation. I have hip and knee issues and find a raw green diet is overall helpful for inflammation, as well as some specific herbs which have some fantastic anti inflammatory properties.....see links below. Another less publically known anti inflammatory powerhouse is the systemic enzyme supplements which are fantastic in age reversal and healing and anti inflammatory properties. The best example of these systemic enzymes is known as Wobenzym.

Guest guest Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 Your welcome....and incorporate a little at a time. One of the major causes of acidity and inflammation in the body is from animal products and refined carbs/ sweets. A starter would be incorporating more of the herbs in meals and/ or as supplements, and get fresh salads every day. For serious treatment, look closely at the info on systemic enzymes. True miracle stuff. Best of luck on the journey. question for Ew and anyone who can help Ew what is the best sprouts and at what amount for inflammation?

Guest guest Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 By adding more vegetables and sprouts will certainly help. And if you add in chicken and fish and not just red meat will help. Dishes that have smaller amounts of meat, like lasagna or casseroles may help too so long as not a lot of fat. By growing some of your own veggies and sprouting will put healthier food in your diet as well as saving money (at least once you have things going and don't have to buy start up things). It is the direction you are going. Good luck to you.

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Hi Charlotte: Loved your post about all the shoots you are growing. This morning, I went to breakfast with my 4 little ziplock bags with sprouts. In them I added something different than what they had yesterday. I added SUNNIES. So off I went to the restaurant at 7:15 this morning. The gang was there and I walked in waving my ziplock bags and announced. SOMETHING new is in these bags. I gave them out and the waitress said " what are these things? " I said " Sunflower shoots'. And there they went, putting them on their sandwiches and going to town. but the best was when the waitress announced: " Melody, I'm off on Saturday and Sunday, WHAT AM I GOING TO EAT FOR BREAKFAST? " I said " now you know why I want you to learn to grow your own sprouts " lol lol lol Melody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Charlotte, I am certainly with you on the sunflower seeds. I buy seeds in 50# bags to fill my bird feeders. One day I contacted the grower and asked about using them for sprouts. I was told that they were not organic, but were fit for human consumption. He told me that he had been contacted by many people about sprouting and knew of several that do. Even some of his employes. I don't use them any more because I can get cleaner seeds at a local farm store for a good price. ew Re: question for Ew and anyone who can help I'm going to (maybe) get shot down in flames here but after all the talk of bird seed grade black oil sunnies I was reading a thread about them on the UK raw food network. They were saying that these seeds were fine to sprout, just rinse them extra well. So, I bought 100g (3 1/2 oz) to try out. I don't have extensive testing equipment but I pinched some of the water testing stuff my husband uses for his fish tank. None of the rinse water tested positive for anything like acid, nitrates etc, and I gave them a ton of extra rinses. As far as I'm aware from reading about the grubs in these seeds, nothing should be present within the seeds (they chew out and drop into the soil rendering the seed damaged and dead) and anything in with the seeds would rinse away... and on growing, nothing would be actually within the shoots or leaves. I didn't find any grub damaged seeds (I inspected them throroughly!), just a few mechanically damaged ones and a very few rogue seeds from other plants. They've grown beautifully, just as well as my expensive organic seeds. There's more chance of finding grubs and flies in an iceberg lettuce hehe. I'm happy to grow them, they may not be the top grade seeds producing huge tasty sunnies but they're still pretty good.

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 According to NutritionData.com: ....The good: This food is low in Sodium, and very low in Saturated Fat and Cholesterol. It is also a good source of Thiamin, Vitamin B6, Iron and Potassium, and a very good source of Dietary Fiber, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, Folate and Manganese. The bad: A large portion of the calories in this food come from sugars.... How would one interpret the " large portion...from sugars " ? One cup of iceberg lettuce - shredded - has the following nutrition label info: 10 Calories (1 calorie comes from fat) 0 Fat 0 Cholesterol 7mg Sodium 2g Carbohydrate (1 each Dietary Fiber and Sugar) 1g Protein Also, based on 2000-calories per day, it contains 7% Vitamin A, 3% Vitamin C, 1% Calcium, and 2% Iron. Sure, it's not a powerhouse green like spinach, kale or other lettuces, but it's got more going for it than just being a naturally filtered source of water. Totally worthy of being included in a greens rotation. Andresa > > . > > I have read where Iceberg Lettuce (while it's good when it's chunked up) well it has NO nutrients at all. Unless you are growing it yourself (so you know where it came from), why not skip the iceberg and use the sprouts as a basis for your salads. I've been doing this for years. Saves a lot of money on lettuce buying. I now grow my own leaf lettuce outside of my door. And now I'm growing Stevia too!!! > lol > > Melody > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
