Rejuvelac Questions/Arthur

[Guest guest]

Dear Arthur:

 

I am again wanting to go back on rejuvelac. I tried Kefir for a

little while, but I seemed to mess that up. I have reread your

article and don't know why I never asked you:

 

What is the scuttle-butt about Brian Clement vs. the Ann Wigmore

legacy in some raw food circles? I would really like to know more

about that because it could help me decide what to do. I also am

wondering if there is, in fact, any danger, if adding a little

colloidal silver might help that situation (of course that would

only make sense if someone believes in colloidal silver in the first

place, which I do).

 

I really LIKED the rejuvelac, but I don't know if it was real or a

placebo. Obviously it only makes sense if it is in fact good for

you. I wrote to several people about Brian Clement's article. He

responded but did not answer the SPECIFIC question I asked. I wrote

to the Ann Wigmore people twice, but they never answered. A couple

of other people answered and they seemed to prefer other things.

 

A portion of the letter I wrote to Hippocrates was: " I was

wondering if you could tell me if the submitted Rejuvelac was made

with wheatberries that had been cleaned 2-3 times a day or with

those that were not cleaned for 2 days (as some of Ann Wigmore's

books say). I have seen different recipes by her and also by other

people; other people usually say to rinse the sprouts. "

 

I furthermore asked the question someone had suggested: Could Brian

have added probiotics and then resubmitted for testing????

 

Below is his answer, which really does not ANSWER my questions:

 

" Rejuvelac has not been a part of the Hippocrates diet for a decade

and a half. You should substitute healthy pro-biotics such as

Master Flora and a wide variety of multi-bacterias available in

Health stores. All recipes calling for Rejuvelac you should

substitute pure water. We found Rejuvelac often contains unhealhy

bacteria. Be well. Brian Clement, Director "

 

Thanks!

Valerie
