Growing Sprouts At Home and the Acid Alkaline Diet
The biggest and clearest benefit of a diet consisting of a high amount of fresh, sprouted foods is this: they are simply the freshest vegetable you can obtain anywhere on the planet without growing a full on vegetable garden. Growing sprouts at home can also work well with the acid alkaline diet, as sprouted foods are themsleves quite alkayzing. They can be grown right in your own home, sometimes even on your kitchen counter, so rather than several hundred miles from the farm to your plate it is a few feet. This reduces your 'food miles', reducing the burden heavy vehicle transport places on the environment.
Most diets today tend to have more foods on the acidic side of the scale, as opposed to either neutral or alkalyzing foods. Many researchers have noted the negative effects on the body when an excess of acidic food in a persons diet requires the body to produce an overabundance of digestive enzymes, which outside of the body are only found in raw vegetables, including sprouts. When the body has to produce a large amount of digestive enzymes to keep up with the acidic food we eat, without the supply being replenished from time to time, its ability to manufacture the whole host of other enzymes needed by the body to function properly is diminished.
Once the bodies normal enzyme production is diminished or overburdoned, the side effects can include increasingly fragile bones, visible effects of aging like wrinkled skin and decreased energy levels (there are of course other contributing factors to these ones but a lack of enzymes is a big contributor). Naturally taking as much of the load off the body as possible by eating foods rich in enzymes is going to lighten the bodies load, increase the available non-digestive enzymes, and slow down the aging process. Managing this issue can lead to dramatically improved health and productivity in life, for people of all ages.
This is where Growing sprouts at home comes in either to compliment your current diet or to be a valuable part of an acid alkaline diet. Sprouts themselves are quite alkaline, are very high in enzymes and eating them helps preserve the acid alkaline balance in the body. By alleviating the burdon caused by the demand to over-produce digestive enzymes, the body is then able to produce the other enzymes required by the body. This promotes good all round health and balance. Given that a sprouter can be fast, simple and low cost to set-up, sprouts are the ideal food to compliment your diet with, in order to promote and enhance healthy bodily processes. There are several methods and types of sprouters on the market today and we recommend the Marche Sprouting Method, as it is cheap, simple, requires no daily rinsing and enables you to produce as little or as much sprouted vegetables as you like.
