But as you know, cross contamination is always a possibility, especially with bulk items.

WEEKLY ARTICLE:
The Health Benefits Of The Lotus
We wrote a newsletter a few weeks ago about the importance of eating vegetables from all of the vegetable categories: Root Vegetables, Ground Vegetables, Greens, and Sea Vegetables. If you missed that newsletter and would like a little "refresher", you can check it out here.
One of the most unique and revered vegetables that we have had the pleasure of cooking and eating during our life long amazing journey into the world of super foods is the lotus. Part root vegetable, part ground vegetable, part leafy green, and certainly aquatic, lotus root, lotus seeds, lotus flowers, and even lotus stems can all be gastronomically enjoyed!
The entire plant is edible, super healthy, and delicious!
We'll be using lotus seeds this week in the Lotus Seed And Taro Root Miso Vegetable Soup, so we thought we'd say a few words about the many benefits of ingesting the lotus plant as the awesome vegetable that it is!
|
The lotus plant has been in use as a culinary vegetable and spiritual icon since ancient times, featuring a most well known recorded history of three to five thousand years in China and Japan.
But lotus holds a place of honor in the histories of Egypt and India as well.
In 2006 there was a King Tut exhibit at the Museum Of Art Fort Lauderdale.
Did anyone go to that??
We did, and we were surprised and amazed to see the lotus theme reoccurring over and over again throughout the exhibit.
Images of the lotus plant were carved into the ornate designs adorning the furniture found in King Tut's tomb.
They were fired into the intricate etchings on the pottery and artwork buried with the king.
Eating utensils such as bowls and plates were molded into the shape of lotus petals.
And paintings from King Tutankhamen's tomb depicted various forms of the lotus root, seeds, flowers, and leaves, all beautifully prepared as meals, and most obviously revered as an important and honored component of the diet of those ancient times.
At that exhibit, we learned, that in ancient Egypt, the lotus signified rejuvenation and endurance.
Images of the lotus flower and plant appear from the most ancient to the most current art in many Asian, Indonesian, and Egyptian cultures, and to this day the lotus is the symbol of purity, perfection, and beauty.
In Buddhism the lotus symbolizes faithfulness.
|
And in Traditional Chinese Medicine, all parts of the lotus plant are used to heal.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, which macrobiotics and acupuncture related principles of healing are based upon, the lotus plant is used to strengthen intestinal fortitude, and to open the airways in the lungs.
Because remember, in Traditional Oriental - Chinese Medicine, the lungs and large intestine are an organ pair. They stay healthy (or become diseased), together.
Some other of Lotus' wide range of health benefits include its probable ability to improve digestion, reduce cholesterol, lower blood pressure, boost the immune system, prevent various forms of cancer, balance mood, relieve depression, increase circulation, and maintain proper enzymatic activity in the body.
The many health benefits of the lotus plant can be attributed to its unique mix of vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients, including potassium, phosphorous, copper, iron, and manganese, as well as thiamin, pantothenic acid, zinc, vitamin B6, and vitamin C.
It is also a very significant source of dietary fiber and a quite decent source of protein.
Sounds good, right?
Tastes really good too!!
We are all so lucky to be the healthy, aware, out of the box, trend setting foodies that we are, thus enabling us to partake of this five thousand year old culinary, spiritual, and medicinal vegetable called the lotus!!
Yum yum!
We hope you will enjoy eating lotus in all of its many forms now that you are more aware of it. And be sure to look for it this week in the form of its revered seeds on this weeks Wholly Macro menu!

Here's some feedback from a consultation client..... " three years ago I discovered that I had breast cancer. I had heard of Macrobiotics years ago. I didn't understand the concept but immediately I knew that that would be the route that I would pursue. But where to go and who to see was the question. Thank God for reading the macrobiotic newsletter. For in the newsletter there was an article about Gayle Stolove. I just felt her strength and passion burn through the page that I was reading. I immediately made an appointment to see her and although I was still so frightened, I felt so comfortable talking with Gayle. Gayle guided me through the whole process. I thought that the macrobiotic way of life would be boring and just eating rice. Well, I love the foods that I eat and I just feel good about it all. You see, after the surgery, you are sort of left on your own.You have to make your own decisions, etc. Everyone gives you different advice as what to eat, what to do, etc. Doctors don't understand what the patient is going through nor do they understand what kind of diet they should follow. I adopted Gayle as my guardian angel. You can't find that with any nutritionist or doctor. I love receiving her weekly e-mailed newsletters. They are so full of wonderful knowledge and beautiful healthy recipes. Gayle is a remarkable human being. She truly cares for her clients and gives them her all, one hundred percent of the time. Gayle has been there and therefore she is so compassionate and dedicates her life to helping people like me....." a cancer survivor |
