I also want to get a juicer, since I'm going to have oragne and lime trees. |
Why don't you start out like I did.
I went to the store and bought a bag of lentils (not organic but what the heck). I took some, washed them thoroughly, rinsed them and then soaked them overnight.
The next morning, I rinsed and drained again, and put them in a bowl. I just rinsed and drained them twice a day.
Well!!! you should see them sprout. In a few days they get little tails and then in 4 or 5 (and you can keep them in the fridge, covered in a bowl), and they will STILL KEEP SPROUTING.
I sprinkle them in Alan's salads, and when I want them I just take some Beano.
But they sure are pretty in a salad.
After I started doing that, I just graduated to the broccoli and the radish sprouts. Lord, my salads are the MOST COLORFUL things.
And so delicious.
Once I made the change, I knew I could never go back.
Someone on my sprout message boards made the following statement and it made a lot of sense.
IT'S NOT SO MUCH WHAT YOU PUT IN YOUR BODY BUT WHAT YOU DON'T PUT IN YOUR BODY.
No preservatives, no artificial anything. Nothing from a package. (Hard I know). There are some people who only eat things that they grew in the ground, and milk that they got from their cows. NOTHING BOUGHT IN A STORE, NOTHING WITH HORMONES.
Wow, if I lived on a farm or in Pennsylvania, I can just imagine what I would have growing in my back yard.
I'd even get my own cow!!!
lol
