Bune sau nu, experientele oamenilor internetului mi s-au parut intotdeauna utile. Nu reprezinta pentru mine dogme si nici nu ma regasesc mereu in experientele lor. Asta ca disclaimer

Am gasit o discutie recenta despre influenta dietei vegana cruda low fat asupra ciclului menstrual.

Azi am iesit cu frate-miu sa alergam.

M-a tot batut la cap cu importanta respiratiei in timpul alergarii. Sa inspir rapid si sa expir mai lung, si sa fac asta in ritm constant. Sa imi aleg un picior pe care sa inspir, pe care sa expir si sa numar pasii. Constant.

Nu mi-a iesit ca la carte, dar in mod cert atat cat am reusit m-a ajutat sa rezist mai mult. Cand m-am oprit din alergat picioarele erau fresh, dar simteam o oboseala in piept, semn ca mai am de lucrat la ritmul respiratiei.

Cadenta.

Vali a facut o adaptare dupa “Germenii mancarea miraculoasa” – Steve Meyerowitz aici.

Economie
Semintele isi pot multiplica de 5-15 ori greutatea. La 20 ron kilogramul de fasole mung, inseamna 3 ron kilogramul de plantute organice, proaspat germinate si crescute in casa. Tineti cont ca o portie zilnica minima de plantute mung inseamna cam 50 gr si costa 0.15 ron.

Nutritie
Germenii sunt plante tinere. In aceasta etapa din dezvoltarea lor, au o concentratie mai mare de proteine, vitamine, minerale, enzime, ARN, ADN, bioflavonoide, celule T etc, decat in orice alt moment al duratei lor de viata – chiar si comparativ cu leguma matura.

Organic
Fara chimicale, substante fumigante sau probleme legate de certificarea calitatii. Poti sa ai incredere ca totul este pur, deoarece tu insuti te-ai ocupat de cultivare.

Disponibilitate
In orice loc din lume, in ianuarie sau iulie, te bucuri de hrana proaspata oricand, oricunde, chiar si pe o barca sau cand pleci in excursie.

Spatiu si timp necesare
Este usor. Trebuie doar sa clatesti cu apa. Fara pamant, fara insecte. Nu ai nevoie de ingrasaminte sau lumina speciala. 200 gr boabe de fasole mung germinate incap intr-un castron si au nevoie de 2 minute de ingrijire pe zi.

Prospetime
Deoarece sunt culese in aceeasi zi in care sunt mancate, nu se pierd elementele nutritive care s-ar pierde daca ar sta in lazi sau pe rafturile magazinelor.

Digerabilitate
Pentru ca germenii sunt plante mici, peretii delicati ai celulelor elibereaza cu usurinta hrana proaspata. Partile lor nutritive exista in forma elementara si abundenta enzimelor le fac usor de digerat chiar si de catre cei cu o digestie proasta.

Diversitate
Mai multe varietati de salata decat gasesti pe rafturile magazinelor… inclusiv salata de hrisca, floarea-soarelui, cereale, varza, gulie, ridichi, trifoi, lucerna, usturoi, arpagic si multe altele. Salatele tale nu vor mai fi niciodata plictisitoare!

Mese
Poti face sosuri din oleaginoase (alune, nuci etc) germinate pe care le servesti cu usturoi, muraturi, felii de legume. Cerealele (grau, ovaz, quinoa, amatanth etc) si leguminoasele (fasole mung si adzuki, linte) germinate pot fi consumate in salate simple cu ceva condimente sau in salatele de legume, ori sub forma de suc in combinatie cu alte legume sau facute pasta si condimentate dupa gust. Tot din leguminoase germinate puteti face muraturi in saramura simpla (cruda). Semintele de verdeturi/legume (lucerna, hrisca, ridichi, varza, gulie etc) germinate le consumi in salata sau sub forma de suc.

Ecologie
Nu sunt necesare avioane pentru transportul alimentelor si nici nu se consuma benzina ca sa-ti fie livrata aceasta mancare. Nu exista pesticide pe baza de petrol si nici fertilizatori sintetici.

Cateva pagini din carte:

Un post excelent al Ligiei Pop despre dieta cruda aka raw foodism si despre institutul Hippocrates.

O colega de serviciu ma intreba foarte curioasa ce am mancat in ziua respectiva.

Azi de exemplu am mancat: 2 mere, 2 banane, un pumn plin de stafide, green smoothie (2 banane, 2 mere, o salata verde mare, un pumn de seminte de in), lapte de susan (seminte de susan lasate la inmuiat si apoi date prin blender + stafide), nuci de brazilia.

Mai incolo vor urma probabil linte si fasole mung incoltite, ce a ramas (0.5 L) din green smoothie-ul facut mai devreme, alune de padure.

Hai ca nu e asa de greu de facut

Dupa ce se face buruiana mare, merge la fix un green smoothie.

Wheatgrass, available in fresh juice form or from tablets, is high in chlorophyll, calcium, magnesium & potassium.
It is wheatgrass’ chlorophyll that is perhaps its most valuable asset. Chlorophyll, the plant’s green pigment that is often referred to as the “blood of plant,” has been shown in studies to have a cleansing, detoxifying & healing effect on the body.
[..]
Use of wheatgrass is said to help cleanse the blood, organs & gastrointestinal tract, and is also recommended as a way to stimulate metabolism & normalizes the thyroid gland, which may be helpful in correcting obesity & indigestion.

As a nutritional supplement, wheatgrass contains a variety of Vitamins, minerals, amino acids & enzymes. It has an abundance of alkaline minerals, which is said to help reduce over-acidity in the blood.

Wheatgrass juice contains almost the same amount of Vitamin C as citrus fruits & actually more than such vegetables as tomatoes or potatoes. It is as high in Vitamin A as dark green lettuce or carrots, & is additionally a good source of the B vitamins. Wheatgrass contains Vitamin E.

The mineral content of wheatgrass includes calcium, iron, sodium, potassium, magnesium & a variety of trace minerals such as selenium & zinc. Dried wheatgrass juice is said to have as much calcium as milk. Wheatgrass juice contains about half as much iron as spinach, as much potassium as citrus fruits & as much magnesium as broccoli.

Some 17 amino acids can be found in wheatgrass, including essential amino acids (those that the body can synthesize from food protein) as lysine, leucine, tryptophane, phenylalanine, threonine, valine & isoleucine. Some of the other amino acids found in wheatgrass are arginine, glutamic acid, histidine, serine & tyrosine.
[..]
One of the primary benefits for wheatgrass is its chlorophyll content. Research in Japan has shown that chlorophyll provides some protection from carcinogens. This protection is said to come from chlorophylls ability to strengthen cells, detoxify the liver & bloodstream and chemically neutralize pollutants.

Switching to raw foods has changed my life and I firmly believe, after trying everything else, is the ultimate key for beating PCOS.

I tried supplements, dietary changes, Metformin, lots of exercise (not moderate, I am talking the Dr. H twice a day workouts and diet plan, I do Shaun T’s Insanity and adore it) and got no significant changes. I want to be clear here, I lost a very small amount of weight, gained muscle and cardiovascular health in a big way, but I did not lose anywhere near enough weight and I did not rid myself of the PCOS symptoms. No matter how I adjusted my caloric intake I simply didnt lose the fat until I made raw food a significant part of my diet.

I strongly encourage anyone struggling with PCOS to make a trip to the library and check out books about raw food and raw superfoods. I started sprouting, drinking green smoothies (youtube has many great instructional videos on how to make a good green smoothie), eating raw fruits and veggies, and continued my vigorous workouts. FINALLY, success.

One need not spend time in the kitchen making complex, gourmet raw meals…. one need not spend time dehydrating foods… truly, just using your blender in the morning and eating fruits and now and then a handfull of soaked nuts is all you do. You wont believe how easy it is. Even if you only incorporate the green smoothie in the morning and do nothing else you will notice changes right away.

I feel SO good. I have so much energy. I am nearly 30 lbs lighter. My periods are regular. My PMS is nearly gone. My mood is effortlessly optimistic. I sleep better. I no longer ruin shirts by permanently stinking up their armpits. The dark patches on my toes and armpits are nearly gone. I no longer bloat, my stomach is FLAT. I am not talking about abs, I have had strong tummy muscles ever since starting the Insanity workout. I am talking about the rounded tummy bloat we all love to hate. IT IS GONE. My skin looks great. I am growing more hair and it falls out so much less, my hairdresser noticed how much thicker it is. I honestly could go on and on, but you get the picture. I am walking and PCOS no longer dogs my steps…. I left it behind.

I feel so much for everyone still battling this syndrome, and I hope with all my heart that hearing the above will help you. I know the blow to your self esteem involved with trying so hard in so many ways and not seeing changes. Dont lose hope, there is an answer.

In addition to going to the library to read books about raw food by David Wolfe and other authors, do a search for keywords such as raw, sunfood, rejuvelac, enzymes and especially, alkaline body. I think systemic acidity is a huge contributing factor to PCOS.

Blessings & good luck.
