Description
Long-lived tree, originally from Persia, Syria and North Africa, intensively cultivated in southern Europe, Asia and Africa, for its drupe fruits whose cotyledons are edible, the almonds. A sacred tree in Greek Antiquity, the almond is a symbol of the hidden divine essence, like the core in the shell in every human being. Peeled almonds contain: 45-55% fatty oil, 20% protein (amandine), carbohydrates, 1.3-1.5% enzymes, sphingolipids, sterols, alphatocopherol, B group vitamins (B1, B2, pantothenic acid, folic acid), carotenoids, mineral substances (iron, zinc, copper, magnesium, phosphorus), nitrogenous substances. Shelled almonds are a natural source of antioxidants, but also of other nutrients with a well-defined role in the cardiovascular prevention process. Consumption of 25 g of organic shelled almonds per day for primary and secondary cardiovascular prevention. Various properties - the source of antioxidants, monounsaturated fatty acids (they are assimilated by the body), phytosterols, vegetable proteins and polyphenols with cosmetic applications, make almonds a valuable raw material for obtaining cosmetic ingredients with different functions. Almond milk is used in diseases of the lower respiratory tract. Peeled almonds are eaten raw. This means that, if they are not thermally processed (fried or boiled), they keep all their nutrients, vitamins and enzymes. But the optimal way to consume almonds is hydration. This means that, every time we want to prepare something with almonds, we must leave them to hydrate at least 8 hours before. This does not mean that if we do not hydrate them first, they are not good for consumption, but, by hydrating, we "awaken" them, because almonds, like walnuts, are dry and by hydrating they wake up. This means that the nutrients and vitamins in them "wake up" and become much easier to digest. We can serve the salad with shelled almonds, we enjoy specks of shelled almonds or shelled almond milk. What can I say about the raw vegan sweets that abound in recipes with and about almonds. Delicious and healthy. Ingredients: shelled organic raw almonds, from organic farming.
