Canary seeds....

I think making atole with it might be good.

well, looking it up, since atole is made hot, it might destroy some of the raw medicinal properties inherent in the seed.

looking around the internets... nothing about its use as a health food is found but in spanish it seems the benefits are very well known in south and central america.

one can use google translator for the following link.

btw in spanish they are called "alpiste".

quote:

"The grass seed is one of the most powerful on Earth, its recharge capacity is huge and enzyme protein content is even greater.A glass of milk enzyme grass has more protein than two or three kilograms of meat but with stable amino acids, that is traveling in a safe and indestructible until our bodies. "

"The enzymes that provide the grass with an immense power to desinflamar our bodies, particularly the liver, kidney and pancreas, which converts this information to the grass in a huge pancreatic regenerator, ie diabetes with just a few weeks, removes cirrhosis by increasing the number of hepatocytes in the liver and by the way, of course, what desinflama, refilling kidney enzymes, promoting a healthy diuresis to remove excess fluid in the body, so the grass is a tireless fighter against Hypertension ... is a marvel, to contain the enzyme lipase removes body fat quickly, either in the veins, arteries, or simply fat deposits, thus is a great remedy for obesity and generates results as large and powerful a developer of cutting and muscle tone."

more info in spanish about a study done in a university of mexico.:

translation is not perfect but here it is:

Recently scientists at the National Autonomous University of Mexico studied the great food of grass, due to the many benefits that brings to the birds, and after many experiments based on the scientific method found that the grass is an incredibly powerful protein, the which has its amino stable which leads to greater efficiency in the food agency.

Surprisingly, the grass leaves a bit back to the protein of alfalfa, which is one of the most powerful on Earth, besides the grass is full of enzymes but is most abundant lipase which is responsible for removing fat excess of the body.

If the grass is soaked in the course of the night, has a power load giant enzyme, which leads to the fact that after eight hours of milk produces a super soaker full of enzymes, is a mild-tasting milk that has literally the ability to lose weight, and you refresh a powerful organ of the body of enzymes, restores the functions of the pancreas, which is a powerful eliminator diabetes also fight very well the kidneys and diseases of the liver and inhibits the reproduction bacteria in the urinary tract.

This is a food giant disregard for decades, the amount of antioxidants it contains is enormous, some people have been devoted to the task of creating a cookie oat grass and alfalfa are the same as the ideal supplement for anyone want to be healthy and thin, but we must remember that the cooking of grass removes any enzyme that it contains, even if the protein remains intact.

(Only a matter of soaking in water to five tablespoons of grass at night and morning to remove the water that is soaked, put five spoons of soaking seed in a blender, fill it with a liter of pure water, the liquefaction and strain.)

Consuming milk from grass is a very strong injection or vaccination against any disease and diabetes that is generated by acid levels in the body, therefore it is necessary to consume at least two or three glasses of milk daily to ensure a birdseed contained thin a healthy body, which of course entails a healthy mind.

when they say "grass" they really mean canary grass SEED.

guess nobody cares then.

Interesting thread OP..... is it only the seed that is used? What about the grass itself? Can it not be made into a 'milk"?

I guess yea you can use the grass as well but I was just talking about canary seeds.

I don't get what they mean by "enzyme protein content".

I mean wtf is that. I dont know spanish but that's what it translated to with google.

like.. duh enzymes are higher in any raw vegan food. meat never has enzymes especially because cooking kills them.

maybe they say that the amount of protein in the enzymes in the canary seeds can equal the amount of protein in meat? but that's impossible?

Hi: if you live in Toronto you could buy canary grass seed in Chinentown...$.4,00 per bag.
I have a friend and she started the treatment - she is felling much better.

I ate canary seeds as a kid. My mom would tell people, I didn't eat much, I ate like a bird, lol



I suffered no ill effects, however sometimes I get an urge to fly south for the winter;)

if you dont have any canary grass growing in a nearby field, you can buy seeds and grow it yourself.

So if I have type II diabetes, what kind of results should I expect?

My mother in law is much into herbal medicine and she was telling my wife and I that the seeds can be used to loose weight, cure diabetes, hypertension, and liver issues. I say why not try it, it can hurt. But their is a process. You have to soak 5 spoon of seeds over night and than darin them. Than in a blender with a cup of water you have to liquify the seeds. After seperate the water from left over seeds and drink it once in the mornin with an empty stomach you can eat 30 minutes later and than at night time before going to sleep at least 2 hours after eating. I would say try it for approx 2 weeks and see if it has made you feel at all different. According to what I read it is being used in Southern and Central America for obesity and diabetes

canary seeds


???


i thought canaries came from eggs


???

I started with 2 daily drinks of canary seed milk 2 weeks ago. I am diabetic, with blood sugar levels of over 300 or 400 unless I give myself high insulin dosis (60 units, 2 times a day). I have noticed that since several days ago, my blood sugar is going down. Last night, at bedtime, it was 144, so I didn't inject myself with insulin. This morning the blood sugar level was 137. I didn't change my eating habits, but I have noticed that I am not really hungry.

I have heard claims that the canary seed milk helps to lose weight and to have more energy. I didn't check my weight, but I have also noticed that I wake up with more energy. Let's see how the thing progresses.

This is how I prepare the drink:
- I put at night 5 spoons of canary seed in water.
- In the morning, I throw the water, and I add 4 cups of fresh water.
- I liquified the mixture at high speed for 3-5 minutes
- I strain it, and drink half in the morning, half at night.
I heard also that some people drink it during the day.

It doesn't taste so good, but not so bad either. Tastes better if cold.

It is amazingly cheap. I bought it in the Internet from the company Doctors Foster and Smith. 5 pounds cost $ 8. Estimating my usage, 5 pounds will be enough for 2 months!
I recommend to buy it in that way. Many pet stores have versions with vitamins, etc that you don't need.
You can order it at DrsFosterSmith.com, or by phone at 1-800-826-7206.

I have seen in the Internet amazing claims about canary seed properties. I just tell you how apaprently is working for ME.

Hi, you wrote this on 8/19 = have you noticed any more improvements?

yes i have heard of this. What you do is you soak a hand full of canary seed (alpiste) in water for a few hours. Next you blend it in the blender. Then you strain it and put it in a pitcher. You can add water if it is too thick. Keep in the fridge and you drink it throughout the day. I have heard that it helps with detoxing the body. My mom uses it for hot flashes and I heard that it also works to help relieve hang overs. Sounds pretty good to me:)

doesn't canary grass have high dmt content? don't the seeds as well?

Someone must have bought too much, and is now trying to unload it.

Besides, it's MUCH easier to grow canaries from eggs than from seeds.

thank you very much.
