We Say Nuts to Protein

We Say Nuts to Protein! Or, let me drive you nuts!

What I mean is drive you to nuts, seeds, beans, and sprouts. Protein in our food culture is so misunderstood. If you have questions about it, let’s talk. We’ll have a report on Protein coming out soon. But, for now, listen up. These are some of the things we’ve learned so far:

-You don’t need animal protein. Plant foods—seeds, beans, and greens have all you need.
-A diet high in Animal Protein weakens the body and leads to degenerative disease.
-A high protein, low carbohydrate diet unbalances the body and promotes allergies.
-Animal proteins putrefy quickly in the intestinal tract. Do you deal with constipation?
-Protein-rich raw foods include seeds, nuts, some grains, and sprouts.
-An example of where to get your protein: 3 ½ oz. of dried lentils contains 20 grams.

We’re still digging into the topic. We’ll revisit the truth of protein soon.

The body is amazing. It’s self-healing when it has the right foods for true nutrition. Be well!
