How to soak nuts, seeds, and grains.

These foods contain inhibitors (like armor) to prevent germination until the conditions are right and their survival is ensured.

These protective agents act as enzyme inhibitors in our bodies, compromising our digestion resulting in gas and bloating. 

They can also inhibit our absorption of nutrients like iron, calcium, copper, zinc, and magnesium.

We soak nuts, seeds, and grains for two reasons:

• Slow-soaking (for nutritional benefit) 
• Quick-soaking to soften foods for the best texture in recipes
