What Is Alkaline Healthy Grains: A Kamut Grain Recipe To Warm You Up

It can get very cold in the winter months, so I tend to eat a lot of hearty meals which consist of several ancient grains. This is the second series of the type of grains I eat with a recipe at the end. For our hormonal function to work at its optimal level we need to be eating all the macros our body requires on a daily basis. What those foods are is debatable. I have a good understanding of what works for me, so thought I would share my main sources of carbohydrates. I also eat several grains that are high in protein, which are considered the most complete protein source. This has to be a major nutritional gain when added to your meal planning.

Kamut Grain
Spelt Grain
Spelt Flakes
Quinoa Flakes
Wild Rice
Amaranth Grain
Shelled Hemp Seeds

I have some amazing recipes for all the above most of which I shared on my channel. 

I do most of my prep the day before my ride, I eat a lot of good carbs the day before and hydrate throughout. The idea is I have energy reserves as well as the dates and water on the day. The morning of the ride I wake and have a litre and a half of water minimum. I do not eat at this point however I start eating two dates every 30 minutes and drink water as often. It's important that you eat as it will impact your performance. I do not recommend riding and running out of energy during a ride. If you are hungry on a bike you're not eating often enough. At which point it's already too late, however eat anyway.

Make sure you're eating nutritionally dense foods so as to maximise your energy level and output. Here's a recipe you'll love

250g Kamut Grain
100g Dates
50g Shelled Hemp Seeds
Agave
Banana
Blackberries
Blueberries
Chilli Flakes
Raspberries
Sea Salt
Spring Water

Blitz the dry kamut grain in a Nutri bullet for 15/20 seconds. Add to a pan with 2 cups boiling hot water and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the dates, shelled hemp seeds and water to a Nutri bullet and blend until a nice smooth single like texture. Add a handful of blueberries, chopped banana and the milk/cream to the kamut, mix well and leave to simmer for 15/20 minutes on a very low heat.

Serve with blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, chilli flakes, sea salt and agave garnish.

Enjoy
