Yoga Kitchen – Self-managing the keys of your health
Sprouted seeds and fresh shoots, when nature’s life force becomes the ally of a prosperous health.
Sprouted seeds and fresh shoots bless us with an immensely powerful cocktail of complete vitamines, minerals, proteins, fibres and active enzymes. Their rich content supplies building blocks for your body’s tissues and structures. The fibres enhance bowel movement and digestion.
Nuts and seeds are a source of high quality protein and fats, especially for those who want to stop consuming meat and other animal products. Thanks to soaking they become more tasty and will be easier to digest.
These days, many people suffer from a chronic mineral deficiency in the body. These minerals are absolutely necessary for the good health and condition of body tissues, especially for the intricate walls of our intestines and our blood vessels. A lot of so-called “civilization diseases” may find their origin in lack of minerals, which causes slow but steady degradation and erosion of structure and function of these tissues.
Sprouting at home starting from seeds is easy. The only condition is to have some discipline regarding the daily rinsing. Sprouting at home will provide you with the right amount of fresh shoots and you can save a considerable amount of money.
Do you really want to eat more raw veggies? By regularly consuming sprouted grains and fresh shoots you can transform a simple salad into a complete, wholesome meal. Moreover, this homemade market gardening will allow you to establish an intimate link with nature and life itself.
