[QUOTE="RyanOwnzed, post: 1671789, member: 643027"] The main reason soaking nuts and seeds is so important is because they contain enzyme inhibitors. The purpose of these enzyme inhibitors is to protect the nut or seed until it has what it needs for growing. Nature allowed the inhibitors and toxic substances to be easily removed when the conditions (enough rain and sun) were met. In nature, when it rains the nut gets enough moisture so it can germinate and produce a plant. The plant then continues to grow with the sunlight. By soaking nuts and seeds, you release these toxic enzyme inhibitors AND increase the life and vitality contained within them! Almonds The Benefits of Soaking Nuts and Seeds * Enzyme inhibitors get neutralized. * The amount of vitamins your body can absorb increases. * Gluten breaks down so digestion is much easier. * Phytic acid, which inhibits the absorption of vital minerals, is reduced. Soaking times vary with the nut. Generally the more dense the nut, the longer the soaking time. Ideally, soaking should be done at room temperature. [/QUOTE]
