What About Nuts? Good or bad for me?
I usually don’t recommend eating a lot of nuts, because of 2 main reasons: 1. the phytic acid content 2. the PUFA content.
What is phytic acid and why is it bad for me?
1. Phytic acid is the storage form of phosphorus contained in legumes, seeds and nuts, which binds certain minerals in the digestive tract. A high consumption of phytates will therefore lead to mineral deficiencies. Certain species like rats and cows can absorb a much larger percent of phytic acid, thus enabling them to consume foods containing it with out danger of malnutrition. (Another sign in my book that humans are not supposed to consume large quantities of them).
Lucky for us there is an easy answer: Soaking the nuts!
Yes soaking nuts in salty water for a minimum of 12 hour eliminates most anti-nutrients. (Phytates plus lectins and enzyme inhibitors!) Most of the anti-nutrients are found in the skin. Since many anti-nutrients are water-soluble, they simply dissolve when foods are soaked. Soaking also increases the availability of nutrients!
PUFAs and how to handle them
2. PUFA content. PUFA or polyunsaturated fatty acids are a necessary part of the balance between Omega 3s and Omega 6s. In order to mantain a healthy balance in the diet we need to pay attention to 2 things: First that the oils are not rancid, so I recommend storing your raw nuts in the freezer to preserve freshness. Second that the Omega 6 are in the correct 1:1 balance with Omega 3s. (Get your Omega 3s from plenty of sardines and pastured eggs!)

what could I substitute for the hemp seed? I’m allergic to them.
Hey Becky, you can just omit them, the nutrition info will change, but the recipe will be just as tasty!
My hubs is allergic to sunflower seeds. Is there something I can use as a replacement to make it for him?
Thanks.
You can skip them or use double the amount of hemp seeds.
I made this and it was easy but mine is milky not like a pudding! Isn’t it supposed to thicken?
I love it though😎. Thanks
How long did you let it soak Donna?
Do you have a recommended serving size?
Tony please read the recipe, all the info is there. Serving size and measurements in grams 🙂
Are the measurements listed here by volume or by weight? Also, how big is each serving size?
Ok, I’ll just have to experiment because I’m confused; the recipe is in cups not grams. The total comes out to out to 2 1/2 cups of pecans, walnuts, brazil nuts, hemp hearts, chia seeds, hemp hearts, and shredded coconut. I’m trying to figure out the serving size because I’m trying to figure out how to portion out 2 1/2 cups of nuts for an entire week.
The nutritional panel provided states the serving size is 1 cup, so how does a 2 1/2 cup recipe with a serving size of 1 cup spread out to an entire week? I also realize that I’m not including the 3 cups of almond milk.
I’m not trying to be a pain, but this seems like an awesome Keto breakfast and just trying to figure out how to make it work without going broke.
Here in Hawaii almonds are $25 per pound, walnuts and are $23, so I’m trying to figure out how much I need to buy for a week; that’s why I ask about serving size.
Unless the recipe as it is listed here is one serving? I’m a 200+ pound man who does high-intensity workouts everyday so 2 1/2 cups of nuts seem like a single serving to me.
The recipe totals 6 cups. It’s pretty simple to follow and divide up. Incredibly easy recipe.
Thanks so much for these great EASY recipes to use. I bought your cook book, incredible recipes :)!!!
YAY!!
That looks delicious but too watery to me.
I’m allergic to walnuts. What could I substitute? Could I substitute pistachios (which I love)?
Sure that sounds delicious!!
