Almond Hard To Digest - Sprouts Are Vegetables

[2005] 

[Aajonus] 

If you have that you don't want pine nuts. 

[Attendee] 

No almonds? 

[Aajonus] 

No, almonds are very difficult to digest.  

[Attendee] 

Even if you soak them, if you soak them? 

[Aajonus] 

If you soak them, you've turned them into a vegetable.  

[Attendee] 

And what if you sprout- 

[Aajonus] 

Cellulose, same thing. They're a vegetable. Once it's a sprout, it's a vegetable, but then you still have some enzyme and inhibitors in sprouts. 

[Attendee] 

What if you soak them in whey from when you make your cheese? 

[Aajonus] 

I've not experimented with that. It's a possibility, I don't know that the lactic acid will incapacitate the enzyme inhibitors, the protein inhibitors, cuz they're pretty strong. 

I would have to do a test and see.  

[Attendee] 

Because aren't there a lot of the enzyme inhibitors in the walnuts? 

[Aajonus] 

Well, like I say, they're in there, but I found that if I make that combination of the eggs, fat and the honey with it it neutralizes.

Does it make a difference if you soak the almonds in pineapple juice? Is that? 

[Aajonus] 

That'll cause most people gas, you're talking about high sugar food. Even though it has lots of acids in it, like the bromalin that will help break down the nuts to some extent, the high sugar in reaction with that particular kind of fat and high carbohydrate will cause indigestion, and gas in a lot of people, most people. I've never met anybody who could do it without farting all day long.  

[Attendee #2] 

I would like to make a testimonial. I'm not farting since I'm on your diet. I just want everybody to know that. 

[Aajonus] 

Most people don't. Most people are gas free.
