"You are indeed capable of healing yourself.  Your state of health is a reflection of how you perceive yourself and your world.  This naturally places the responsibility for your well being where it belongs- in your own hands.  Once you have achieved vibrant health, you will not just feel well.  You will have become "whole", perhaps for the very first time in your life."  

~Andreas Moritz

In the spring, seeds flaunt their vitality and energy by sprouting.  Sprouts of al varieties contain the building blocks of life in the form of vitamins, enzymes, amino acids and simple sugars.  in their early growth state, sprouts are very easy to digest, allowing our bodies to access many wonderful nutrients.  Recent research by the American Cancer Society has backs what holistic nutrition has know for years:  sprouts contain anti-cancer properties, high levels of active antioxidants, concentrated amounts of phytochemicals and significant amounts of vitamins C, A and D.

In their raw form, sprouts have a cooling effect on the body, and are therefore, best consumed in warm weather or by robust warm body types.  Those you tend to feel cool can add them to warm dishes to reduce their cooling effect. There is a wide variety of edible and delicious sprouts, each with a different texture and flavor:  mung bean, lentil, radish, clover, sunfloer, broccoli, garbanzo, adzuki, and pea.

Here are some great ways to serve up sprouts:

*Add to salads

*Combine with other veggies in lettuce wraps, sushi rolls and more

*Use as a garish for a variety of dishes

*Add to brown rice or whole-grain dishes

*Use in place of lettuce

Spring has arrived!  Eat sprouts and feel alive!!
