Different kinds of seeds you can sprout

Generally eaten raw: Alfalfa, radish, mung bean, sunflower, clover, cabbage.
Generally cooked: Kidney, Pinto and other miscellaneous beans.
Eaten raw or cooked: Lentils, Soy beans, green peas and wheat. (In addition, all the sprouts that are generally eaten raw can be easily cooked.)
Alfalfa: Alfalfa, one of the most popular sprouts, is a good source of vitamins A, B, C, D, E, F, and K and is rich in many minerals, as well as many enzymes needed for digestion.
Radish sprouts are high in vitamin C and potassium and have a rich flavor.
Wheat is high in Vitamins B, C, and E and has three times the vitamin E of dry wheat. Wheat also has many minerals.
Mung Beans: These sprouts should be sprouted under pressure to produce long and juicy sprouts. Mung bean sprouts are an excellent source of protein, vitamin C, A and E, along with many minerals.
Green Pea sprouts are rich in many of the B vitamins and vitamin C. Green pea sprouts make a rich addition to any green salad.
Soybeans: An extremely rich source of protein and vitamins A, B, C and E. Soybeans are rich in minerals and lecithin. They can be sprouted under pressure like mung beans.
Kidney beans, pinto beans and miscellaneous beans: They are a good source of vitamin C, many of the B vitamins and many minerals. Sprouting these beans also changes their indigestible carbohydrates to digestible carbohydrates thereby greatly reducing the intestinal gas they otherwise cause.
Lentils: Rich in protein, vitamin C and the B vitamins. They have a mild ground pepper flavor.
Buckwheat: Makes a great salad green. High in vitamins A, B, C and D.
Sunflower: Rich in vitamins B, D, and E, many minerals, and Linoleic Acid, the W6 EFA.
Do Not eat tomato or potato sprouts as they are poisonous.

What is cholesterol?

Without cholesterol your body wouldn't work:
it's vital to ensure the body's normal function.
Like specialised bricks, it forms part of the outer membrane that surrounds every cell.
It's used to insulate nerve fibres (and so make nerve signals travel properly) and make hormones,
which carry chemical signals around the body.

Too much cholesterol in the blood, however, increases the risk of coronary
heart disease and disease of the arteries.


Cholesterol and food

One of the biggest misconceptions people have is that food's packed with cholesterol.
In fact, very little cholesterol is found in foods.
The main culprits are eggs, offal and shellfish.

What's important is the type of fat in the food you choose,
especially saturated fat. Once inside the body, the liver turns this fat into cholesterol.


Lipoprotein levels

Knowing your cholesterol level isn't, on its own,
enough to tell you what your personal risk of heart disease is.

You also need to know about lipoproteins.
These are special molecules that carry or transport cholesterol around the body.

There are three main types:

* Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) - often known as bad cholesterol.
It carries cholesterol from the liver to the cells and,
if supply exceeds demand, can cause harmful build-up of cholesterol.

* High-density lipoprotein (HDL) - or good cholesterol.
This takes cholesterol away from the cells and back to the liver, where it's either broken down or excreted.
* Triglycerides.


The greatest danger is when someone has high levels of LDL cholesterol and trigylcerides, and low levels of HDL cholesterol.

Are they the same in both LDL and HDL?
Shame on you rumki8 advertising horse piss on a wheatgrass forum.There goes the nieghberhood.

Example......

Too much...not enough...or just right.= Natural

Drugs= Man made freeze dried ...frozen or powdered....DEAD FOOD with "side effects"= WRONG

I like it when we are agreeing.

But controversy bring comparables & knowledge = TRUTH & temperment.

Moins d’incertitude dans les secteurs d’activité écologiques favoriserait les exportations.
Les technologies, produits et services respectueux de l’environnement représentent un marché de US$ 475 milliards. D’ici à 2010, il atteindra US$ 640 milliards, avec une part de 15% pour les économies en développement et en transition. Ces pays possèdent un avantage concurrentiel, avec des ressources naturelles abondantes et leurs propres solutions technologiques non polluantes, apparues pour répondre à la demande locale et susceptibles d’intéresser d’autres pays en développement.
