In addition to a general positive effect on the human organism germinating seeds of each
individual culture have specific properties that make them useful for those suffering from
definite ailments.
Thus, the germinating seeds of cereals normalize the functioning of the digestive system

group B and E vitamins that regulate exchange processes, promote normal functioning of the
brain and heart hinders the formation of blood clots, decreases the consequences of stress
situations and improves skin and hair condition.
Lentils germinating seeds promote blood creation, necessary in fighting colds.
Buckwheat germinating seeds improve the condition of blood vessels since they are a
good source of rutin (antisclerotic vitamin) that strengthens their walls, de creases the
penetrability and breakage of capillaries, hinders hemorrhaging in the retina and increases the
level of hemoglobin.
Pumpkin germinating seeds have a vermifuge action, useful in treating t he prostate,
improve functioning of the brain, and have a beneficial effect on the reproductive system and
the urino-genital system.
Sunflower germinating seeds, containing vitamin D , fortifying the nervous system,
promote retention of good vision and improve skin condition.
Sesame germinating seeds strengthen bones, teeth and nails, promote prophylaxis of
osteoporosis, and are recommended when fracturing bones, especially useful for pregnant
women and breast-feeding mothers for the large amounts of calcium and magnesium
contained in them and for children during the period of intensive growth and changing teeth.
Flax germinating seeds contain a large amount of linolic acid which participates in the
formation of the cellular membrane, restores the elasticity and firmness of the blood vessels,
supports functioning of the brain, helps to solve menopause problems for women and various
disturbances of the digestive system. Milk thistle germinating seeds are a powerful hepatic
protector, reduce the destructive aspects of medicinal preparations and toxic substances
entering the human organism from the environment and are effective in treating hepatitis C.
