Spelt berries are a nutty, easier to digest grain that works as a hearty substitute for rice. Hildegard’s Spelt Berries contain a more fragile gluten structure that is easier to digest and suitable for people with mild gluten sensitivity. A tough hull leaves Spelt naturally better protected against insects and pollutants and allows it to retain nutrients long after harvest
To prepare, combine 3 cups of boiling water with one cup of Spelt Berries and simmer for 40-50 minutes.
Description
Organic & Non-GMO
Organic and Non-GMO certified Spelt, carefully sourced and packaged to standards inspired by the patron Saint of Spelt, Hildegard von Bingen.
Ancient Grain
Modern cultivation and genetic modifications to wheat seeds have made gluten more prominent in many of the foods we eat. Spelt retains its original integrity.
Gluten
The gluten in Spelt is more fragile and water-soluble than that of wheat. The different gluten structure makes Spelt a reasonable alternative for people with mild gluten sensitivity.
Immunity
The water-soluble plant-polysaccharides in spelt serve as immune-stimulants. These properties help prevent viruses from successfully attacking healthy cells.
Mood
Spelt lightens the mood and encourages a relaxed state, due to high phenylalanine and tryptophan content. These amino acids promote contentment.
