Activate your almonds!!

It won't hurt to activate your almonds :)

After doing some research of my own I kept reading things about almonds and how you have to activate them first. I have been eating almonds for years and this was the first I have heard of it.. 
Why should you activate your almonds?  
- One particular study claimed that raw almonds contain certain phytochemicals that prevents your body from absorbing all the nutrients that come from Almonds
- By activating your Almonds it helps with digestion 
How do you activate almonds?
The activation process requires almonds to be soaked in water for 12 hours. By soaking the almonds in water for 12 hours should deactivate the enzyme inhibitors and brings the nut to life. Once the almonds have been soaked, they are then dehydrated at low temperatures (40 degrees) over a 24-hour period. 
I gave it a go myself and I have noticed a huge difference with digestion and taste... 

Give it a go you have nothing to lose :)
