Healthy Eating

Did you ever think about eating from the perspective of essence? Sprouts represent new life. Their essence contains the promise of future growth. Mung bean sprouts will support the Liver. Soy sprouts will support the Kidney. Both organs will enjoy a refreshing boost!

Eating for healing honors the needs of the body and takes into account food cravings. If you crave sour foods, that’s the Liver talking. Turn to foods like vinegar, lemons, and pickles.

To get started with your sprouts, check out the cooking video. Then, follow our plan or substitute meals based on your food cravings and by all means eat your leftovers!  Vegetarians are encouraged to substitute recipes.
