Eat the ultimate muesli
Muesli Miracles
Wheat contains almost all nutrients required in the right amounts and in the correct composition. By eating muesli made from freshly ground wheat or other grains, we ingest all the vital substances they contain. Unadulterated carbohydrates, amino acids, saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, minerals, vitamins, trace elements, enzymes, aromatic substances and other essential micronutrients contribute considerably to our protection against a variety of degenerative diseases.
The B-complex vitamins in muesli also regenerate fat metabolism. They take care that carbohydrates are transformed into carbon dioxide and water and not into long-chain saturated fatty acids (SFAs). Those SFAs form an impermeable coat which would replace a permeable coating of essential fatty acids in our arteries and capillaries. The carbon dioxide is exhaled and the water is eliminated.
For all those who start this program with clear indications of degenerative diseases due to a long consumption of what we call the "North American" diet, it is advisable to prepare and eat muesli both morning and night. Within days, your digestion will improve. As soon as digestion is regular, the stool gold-brown, neither hard nor soft and free of foul odor, you can decide whether you want to continue eating muesli at night or if you would prefer to eat only one ounce of grain in the form of grouts or sprouts.
You won’t believe that this natural path to wellness is so simple. The trace element iron will improve the quality of your blood and magnesium will strengthen your muscles, in particular your heart. The vitamin B-complex of raw wheat will take care of the regeneration of your body’s cells, your nerves and your bones. What other food can do all of this for you?
