Balanced
nourishment
Grains are a
natural source of vitamins and minerals. They can be used instead of fruits and vegetables,
due to the fact that they eliminate toxins. They also contain
B-complex vitamin, calcium, magnesium, phosphorous and enzymes
which all produce energy.
Cereal
grains
prevent
anemia.
Wheat, soy, alfalfa, maize (corn) grains
are recommended against premature aging, anemia, calcium and
magnesium loss, migraines, insomnia or growth disorders in case of
children. The grains should be included in children's nourishment
for it makes them more resisting to cold
or flu. Soy and wheat grains contain enzymes. By germination, the
quantity of vitamins and enzymes increases. Germinated grains are
more easier to digest and nutritive (vitamins and minerals) are
assimilated better. Grains should not be stored for more than one
year or if they are musty or fertilized. Wash them well before use
and keep them into moist environment for germination. Keep them in
the refrigerator for 2-3 days only. Eat them immediately. If they
have already turned hard, mill them. Do not boil them for they
lose their vitamins and minerals.
One can buy wheat or soy
flakes, flakes mixed with dry fruits, bread or biscuits made of
grains. But these products do not contain the entire quantity of
vitamins as the natural grains do. Bread and biscuits are baked at
high temperatures and that destroys their nutritive properties.
Fresh grains are perfect for people suffering from stress or
overworking because they produce energy. There is not a special
dose that we can recommend you. It depends on each person. When
starting the cure, take only one spoon of grains and increase the
quantity gradually.
inadvisable:
in case of irritable colon.
They contain a high amount of food
fibres (almost 15%) which may cause colon irritation or digestive
tract irritation.
Healthy people can use them as they
help to digestion and prevent constipation.
Prescription
-
dinner time: do not eat them in combination with animal proteins.
But, you can mix them with honey, olive oil or sauce, but not
saturated or hydrogen fats like mayonnaise. Eat them between the
meals. The best way is to substitute dinner food with cereal
grains. They do not contain cholesterol, but little calories and
we recommend them in case of arterial sclerosis or for weight
loss.
Vitamins
- 100 gr of wheat grains
contain 40 calories, 10 gr of water, proteins, lipids, 55 gr
glucide (35 gr of starch and 20 gr of soluble glucide) and food
fibres. Wheat grains can be eaten when they have 1-2 mm in length.
They contain a lot of B-complex vitamins. Two spoons of wheat
grains ensure the daily dose of food fibres.
- 100 gr of
grains contain 22 mg of vitamin E, almost the daily dose of food
fibres - 15%. People who eat wheat grains improve their visual
acuity and immunity.
Alfalfa
Alfalfa
grains contain substances against oxidation, potassium, B-complex
vitamins, vitamin E, pholic acid and beta carotene. Therefore, it
is highly recommended in case of aging. They are the best means to
dis intoxicate the body. Alfalfa grains contain calcium and
phosphorous and are perfect for maintaining a healthy bone system
and dentition. People who suffer from sensible colon, do not bear
cereal grains therefore, they might use alfalfa grains for a
diet.
- 100 gr of fresh grains contain only 24 calories which
makes them perfect in case of diets.
Soy
Soy grains contain
proteins, lipids, food fibers, iron, calcium, sodium, potassium,
phosphorous, vitamin C and only 49 calories to each 100 gr. They
should be eaten when they have small leaves. They contain
iso-flavone or vegetal hormones who prevent osteoporosis (it
occurs in case of women during menopause). Soy fibers protect the
body in case of diabetes (people who suffer from diabetes but are
not insulin addictive). Due to the fact they decrease the level of
cholesterol, soy proteins reduce heart disorders. Studies have
proved that soy products prevent prostate, colon and breast
cancer.
Medical advice
Maize
(corn) grains contain vitamins, enzymes, mineral salts,
carbon-hydrates, lipids, zeine - a strong substance who prevents
oxidation and reduces it. Maize oil does not contain so many
nutritive substances. It contains poly-saturated fats and
therefore, do not use it for frying food. If used for salads, it
has the same properties as sunflower oil. It contains a lot of
omega-6 fat acids. The lack of balance between omega-3 and omega-6
(harmful fats) acids produces chronic diseases, heart and blood
circulation disorders and obesity.
