LENTIL PROTEIN

VEGAN FOOD IS FOR EVERYBODY!

(Keywords: lentil protein, chiropractic help, vegan weight loss, Chickpea Garbanzo bean Dip, authentic hummus recipe)

Lentil protein is about a rich, easy-to-cook food. They form probably the cheapest protein you can buy.

What I love about LENTILS is that they are so easy to cook. They are small and absorbent enough so that, unlike most other ‘pulses’, they don’t need to be soaked. Just throw a handful of lentils in when you are cooking brown rice. Into all your stews too, even meat dishes. Delicious! What could be easier?

Legumes are a group of healthy foods which are high in protein. They include beans, peas … and lentils. At 26% protein they are a rich source for vegetarians. But why should only they enjoy the fun? Lentils are for all!

Beans get notoriously bad press but cooked right are delicious and an important part of the live healthy guide diet. ( COOKING% 20DRIED%20BEANS )

Lentils come in a rich variety of colours. Yellow to red-orange to green, brown and black. As a general rule, remember that coloured foods are rich in anti-oxidants, so mix and match your lentil protein too. They are rich in fibre, vitamins and minerals...personally I'm less fond of brown lentils.



It grows on a small bush, but you will probably never see it growing. Quite soon our kids won’t even know that milk comes from a cow!

Generally Western society eats too much protein which is associated with a host of diseases, including breast cancer. However, vegetable proteins are much safer, and legumes make up the best source.

There are a variety of weight loss fads associated with high protein powders and foods. Avoid them at all costs! In general, all of these dietary fads are ineffective. Want to lose weight permanently? Rather just think about eating more salad and fruit, more legumes, exercise more, and stop fussing about your weight. Slowly but surely, what's more important healthily, it will come off. Do it!





Cholesterol

Another proven benefit of legumes is their ability to block the absorption of cholesterol in the gut. Just half a cup of cooked beans, a handful of lentils, and my next favourite ...

Chickpea GARBANZO BEAN dip / Authentic hummus recipe

Chickpeas too are a legume, and can be used to make a scrumptious dip called called Hummus or Choumi. The downside is that they must be soaked overnight. Once soaked though, you can freeze them, and then in a flash you can make your Choumi. (Hummus, Chickpea Garbanzo bean Dip ). AUTHENTIC HUMMUS RECIPE ...

These days we have many clever (actually, too clever for our good) food companies selling us foods enriched with this or that. High bran, sterol fortified, vitamin D enriched ... all at ten times the price. Just eat whole wheat bread, whole rolled oats, apples, pulses for your lentil protein ... just as the good Lord intended ... and take a walk in the sun and eat more salmon for your vitamin D and omega-3. Walking Benefits ... Make the time.

SMOKED SALMON DIP RECIPE ... rich in vitamin D, omega 3 AND tastes divine!


GROWING CHICKPEAS

If you have a passion for gardening, and like to try different things, try planting some chickpeas this Spring. Mine are just coming into flower (Southern summer) and the first pods are forming. However they grow best in a hot dry summer climate. GROWING CHICKPEAS ...

VEGAN WEIGHT LOSS

Replacing, or at least supplementing, animal protein with a vegetable source has enormous health benefits, not least of which is vegan weight loss. I'm not a vegetarian, but I eat Hummus every day.

The best way to lose weight to cut out carbs and increase your vegetable protein - then you won't be ravenous. Increasing you animal protein is not advisable. There are too many health risks associated with a high animal protein diet. VEGAN WEIGHT LOSS ...

CHIROPRACTIC HELP

Why on earth is a chiropractor so passionate about things like hummus and lentil protein and vegan weight loss?

Simple. The high animal protein in our Western diets has been strongly associated with breast cancer and a host of diseases. I've lost so many patients over the years... such a waste. Let's eat more vegetable protein, and that means legumes. In any case, calories in hummus need be no concern and cooking green beans is so easy and delicious. Included in the above link are some instructions are growing pole beans. Dead easy, just three or four beans will keep you in legumes...

The other reason is that statins, the drugs used to lower cholesterol have nasty side-effects for many people. Aching legs... loss of libido, sex drive, rather think lentil protein, hummus, green beans, dried beans... so easy. It's all about keeping away from drugs and wanting to reach a happy, healthy eighty with all your marbles intact! That's what you want, too, right?



GREEN BEAN AND LENTIL SOUP

Andre Agassi, the greatest tennis player of all time, found that lentil soup gave him staying power for three hours. Good enough for Agassi, good enough for me. Plus it tastes damn good! As a variation, we add green beans', another protein-rich legume. We eat too much red-meat protein, its known to increase the risk of cancer. Breast cancer especially. GREEN BEAN AND LENTIL SOUP ...

If growing and cooking green beans is high on your priorities, then save bean seeds should be too. Because if you love to garden then GROWING GREEN BEANS is amazingly easy. Just pop a few bush bean seeds around between your annuals, or encouage a couple pole beans to climb up any available trellis. Really, so simple.

  • GIGANTES BUTTER BEANS RECIPE

    There are a 101 legume and lentil protein recipes. This Greek giant butter bean (actually just a dried lima bean) is very delic, quick and easy once you've soaked the beans. Butter beans like lentils have the advantage of not requiring a long cooking time as many beans and chickpeas do. GIGANTES BUTTER BEANS RECIPE ...


    Lentil protein is all about reducing our need to eat red meat, eggs and cheese, high cholesterol foods, three times a day for our protein. Having to take nasty Statin drugs is too high a price for our desire for animal protein three times a day.

    Believe it not, I'm not a vegetarian. I love red meat, eggs and cheese, and by increasing my lentil protein I'm able to enjoy them without guilt. My total cholesterol is 'dangerously low'! consequently, the blessing of a balanced diet.




    MAKING A COMPOST PILE

    If you want to go organic, then making a compost pile is a must. Actually such fun, just look at mine... all that exercise, out in the fresh air, sunshine for vitamin D. Turn off the TV and get out in the garden this summer! With a hat, don't forget the threat of melanoma. MAKING A COMPOST PILE ...
