Sprouted Green Gram And Vegetable Stew

March 4, 2008

You may be wondering why I use sprouted green gram as the main ingredient in most of my dishes. Well, there is a real story as to why I strongly recommend sprouted green gram as the best cure for diabetes and obesity.

My husband, a known diabetic for over 15 years was advised to take sprouted cereals and stop the insulin shots and drugs that he had been regularly taking to control his blood sugar. 

He sincerely followed this advise and started taking sprouted cereals. He also stopped taking medication and insulin. Sprouted Cereals did work wonders. He was able to maintain normal blood sugar levels without any medication.

But then after some time he got tired of eating stereotype food. This is when I started exploring possibilities. I started making variety of dishes with sprouted cereals and my husband relished them and so did many of our friends. Sprouted Green Gram and Vegetable Stew is something that my husband has for his breakfast.

So here is the recipe for you:
