ACTIVATION PROCESS

What Is Seed and Nut Activation?

Activation is a simple but transformative process. It involves soaking seeds and nuts in water for a set period, followed by dehydrating them at low temperatures. This process mimics the natural germination process and has been practiced for centuries in traditional diets.

Nutritional Benefits of Activating Seeds and Nuts:

1. Enhanced Nutrient Absorption: Soaking seeds and nuts can break down compounds called phytates and enzyme inhibitors. These compounds can hinder the absorption of essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and zinc in your gut. A study published in the “Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry” (Davidson et al., 2017) found that activating almonds increased the bioavailability of minerals, making them easier for your body to absorb.

2. Improved Digestibility: Activation can also improve the digestibility of seeds and nuts. Soaking initiates the sprouting process, which reduces the levels of anti-nutrients. The “Journal of Food Science and Technology” (Kadam et al., 2013) published a study showing that activated seeds and nuts are easier on the digestive system, potentially reducing bloating and discomfort.

3. Enhanced Enzyme Activity: Enzymes are essential for breaking down food in your digestive system. Activation can help activate enzymes naturally present in seeds and nuts. A report in “Plant Physiology” (Radchuk et al., 2018) highlights how the germination process, similar to activation, triggers enzyme production, aiding digestion.

4. Increased Nutrient Content: Activated seeds and nuts may also have a higher nutrient content. According to research in the “Journal of Food Science and Technology” (Grosch et al., 2015), activation can lead to an increase in certain vitamins, such as B vitamins and vitamin C, which are essential for overall health.
