I am wanting to start growing microgreens. The process looks straightforward (plant seeds in trays, keep dark for 3 days then spray daily on a kitchen windowsill), but there are a couple of things I am not sure about:
1 - Growing medium. How to understand if this is nutritious enough as well as vegan? I see a lot of people saying that coconut coir is ideal for microgreens, but would this be

Thanks very much for this very helpful information.
Sadly, even sprouted and fermented nuts are not digestible to me. This is really a shame as I love them and they would be a great and very easy source of fat and protein.
I think I definitely tend towards the Brian Clement model of high sprouts & veggies and low fruit. Don't mind having a bit more fat. I just tend to notice that whe

I should add that I also eat some fruit, but try to keep the amount low, as it seems to bring on some digestive discomfort (I think due to the sugar content)

Hi
I decided late last year to increase the raw food content of my diet. I was already eating a healthy vegan diet, but still felt below par health-wise and wanted to increase the amount of raw food I was eating.
When I started to do so, my desire to eat cooked food quickly went away - I was almost averse to it most of the time, apart from some odd snacks like rice cakes. The bulk of my f

Whether or not it is a false belief, if you have the right attitude to it, it need not affect your sense of responsibility in terms of how you live your life. In some belief systems, it enhances it (for example in the sense that "what I do now will affect my future lives", and need not involve any moral judgements. It only takes away your sense of responsibility if you draw lazy conclu

Hi
Realise I am coming to this several months after the original discussion, but is a lack of minerals the only problem with using distilled water, or are there other reasons not to use it?
If it is the only reason, could it be overcome by using distilled water with liquid kelp added to it?

Hi
I would really like to increase the amount of raw food in my diet, but whenever I have tried this in the past, it has been catastrophic.
I think I understand now. One part of it is the immediate drastic increase in fibre, which I should probably transition to more carefully next time.
But I think it is also because most raw recipes that I have seen involve significant amounts of high

Thanks
I like to eat mung after a soak and 1-2 rinses, when the shoots are just starting - I find them most tastey at that time, and much less so later.
Am I missing something nutritionally (or doing anything dangerous) by eating them early?

HI
I like to eat them when the first signs of shoots are just starting to come - they seem tastier at this time and I have read that it is at this moment that their nutritional value is most potent.
However, I have read elsewhere that it is more beneficial to allow them to grow for a few days first.
Does anyone know which is correct?
