| sprouted raw producer: looking for partner We are an organic food producer from Romania, Europe ( look for Petras Bio on the net, at the time only in Romanian ) and started newly a sprouted raw food line ( seeds, grains,granola, crackers, snacks ). We work 100% organic, sprout buckwheat, sesame, oat, sun flower, quinoa, use only raw ingredients and dry under 107° F. We have great quality, well under the market prices ( because we have a good running factory of pasta and other organic products we can afford lower costs )and in 4 months already got customers in Germany, Austria, Great Britain, Denmark, Spain, Hungary and Romania. Myself as vegan and to a great extent raw foodist love our sprouted and raw products most - they are my baby. I am looking for a partner to distribute our products in USA and Canada. We use to work with such partners in different European countries. Post Date: 01/30/12, Replies: 0 | ||
| Raw food recipe search engine We've started to support raw food searches at www.foodferret.com Select raw food in the cooking section - near the bottom of the search form. We recommend then adding an ingredient in the must include list, or add alcoholic drinks to the must exclude list to remove most of the cocktail recipes which are technically raw. It's not perfect yet, due to technical difficulties in recognizing raw recipes, but we hope people will find it useful. We'd love to get some feedback so we can improve this feature.

| Sprouted Brown Rice- Whats it all about? "What is sprouted brown rice?" "How do you sprout rice?" "What's the benefit?" "Is it healthier?" These are all typical responses I get the first time I tell someone about or show someone sprouted brown rice. While most of us are unfamiliar with sprouted brown rice, sprouting rice is actually a very simple idea. Sprouted brown rice is simply brown rice that is tricked into thinking that it's time to grow into a plant. We place brown rice in a warm, humid environment which encourages the germ (the corner of the rice kernel where life begins) to start the growth process. The rice kernel effectively flips a switch, where its sole purpose is now focused on creating new life. The germ begins pumping vitamins, nutrients and amino acids into the rice kernel in preparation for growth. When the maximum possible nutrition in the rice kernel is reached, we cool it down, locking in all the added vitamins, nutrients and amino acids. While there are many different vitamins and amino acids that are increased during the sprouting process, one specific amino acid has garnished a lot of attention: Gamma Aminobuteric Acid (GABA). It's difficult to delve into every benefit of GABA simply because there are so many claims, but the most pronounced claims are that it lowers anxiety and promotes calmness. There are also claims associated with preventing memory loss, helping with hypertension and even claims about overall brain function. There is still a lot of research to be done on GABA, but so far, it looks very exciting and is definitely something to watch. While the added nutrition is exciting, it is only one of the many benefits to sprouting brown rice. Convenience in cooking rice is important, and we all know that brown rice takes longer to cook than white rice. This is because along with the added vitamins, fiber and protein found in the bran layer of brown rice, the bran layer also contains oil, and we all know oil and water don’t mix. Sprouting brown rice however, will soften the bran layer which shortens the overall cooking time, giving you a super healthy option that is also convenient. Another benefit aside from nutrition is taste. Through all the samples we have given away, the feedback on the taste has been one of the most encouraging. People absolutely love the slightly softer and nutty taste the sprouted brown rice provides. As a final note, something that I find very interesting from the standpoint of a rice mill is that sales of brown rice are a mere fraction of sales of white rice. This tells me that while there is a lot of hype and talk about eating brown rice, most people choose the convenience and taste of white rice. White rice is still a healthy option, but I believe that the added nutrition combined with the added convenience and taste of sprouted brown rice could potentially lead us to the day that we can finally say brown rice sales outnumber white rice sales. Of course, you can't just take my word for it. Try it for yourself! Post Date: 12/09/13, Replies: 0 | ||

| Are All Pulses Safe To Sprout? I've just bought myself a 3 tier bean sprouter last week. It came with 2 packets of alfalfa and green lentils. I've succesfully sprouted these and they both tasted really good. I have some more on the way but now like to experiment with some different pulses. Are they all safe to sprout? I know red kidney beans are not a good idea. Has anybody out there ever tried butter beans? Post Date: 10/15/12, Replies: 0 | ||

| RAW foods are Living for You All Fruits and Vegetables have living enzymes in them that aid the phytonutrients to the cells of your body. Even when you lightly steam vegetables you kill or damages the enzymes. Cooking your food changes your food and your body doesn't recognize the food. Which activates your immune system to fight off this foreign object you've put in your body. If your diet is 51% cooked food, out of habit your body activates your immune system every time you eat. Weather it is cooked or RAW. This is over working and weakening our immune systems and that's why the medical and medicine industry has sky rocketed so high. Your RAW fruits and vegetables are ALIVE and waiting to serve you in the best way. They are a living to aid your digestion, heart health, vision, skin liver and the rest of your body. That's what food is for, your nutrition and development. Take care of your body by putting in RAW fruits and vegetables!!! Tell me what you think about this topic I love discussions. :) Adam Blend It Healthy www.blendithealthy.com Post Date: 02/20/15, Replies: 0 | ||
