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
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
Starting a Raw Food Diet Hello; After doing a lot of research, I have decided that I would absolutely love to transition to eating 100% raw foods, but I had a few questions and concerns. How would you reccomend going about the transition and how much time do you think I should allow my body to go through a transition period to just eating raw foods? One of my main concerns with this diet, is that it seems rather expensive. I am a college student, I don't exactly have much of an income right now, and it's hard for me to spend so much money on food every week, regardless of how good I know it is for me. I don't have any equipment, such as juicers or blenders, or dehydrators, and I was wondering out of these machines (or other machines that I haven't mentioned) Which one would be the most important for me to have? What foods do you buy that are the least expensive, but are staples to your diet? I would sincerely appreciate any help you guys couls give me about this! Thanks Post Date: 01/09/12, Replies: 0

When Ordering Raw Many of you who are Raw or are interested in a starting point, you most likely search the internet for hours on where to find the best deals on Blenders, Bulk Foods, Water Ionizers, Rebounders, Etc... It is very important you STAY AWAY from the follow three web sites. Blind Guru RawSwammy Rawfoodobession .com This is the same person that leads a cult. He and his accomplices offer you "the best deals" on the web and you end up with stuff you did not order and a big headache, that is IF you get anything. These people are scam artists. They sell them selves on sharing is caring, but all they really do is steal from you. BUYER YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! Post Date: 05/10/09, Replies: 0
