Soaking pecans and cashews

[Guest guest]

Dear Friends,

 

I just came across raw food recipes where it says to soak pecans and

cashews for 2 hours. If you soak pecans, does it destroy the enzyme inhibitors

and release the enzymes? I’ve read that pecans can’t be sprouted,

so I thought that they just shouldn’t be consumed. And the nutrition in

cashews is supposedly destroyed by the shell-removing process. I LOVE these 2

nuts, and I wish I could eat them somehow and have them be totally healthy.

Someone said that because the 2 parts of pecans and walnuts are separated after

shelling, that soaking doesn’t work. Am I confused?
