Throughout my many decades of practical experience I have always noticed that it is far more beneficial to utilise food in its entirety, as a wholefood, if at all possible. We should use not just the oil extracted from the seeds, but we should also consume the residual matter, the oil cake, adding it to our food. If the liver is sensitive and cannot tolerate certain oils, especially those that have been refined, it will usually accept the unrefined ones. It is even more beneficial for the liver if the whole oil seed or fruit is eaten. This observation has been confirmed in many cases and will no doubt become a universally accepted fact in the near future following its endorsement by scientific research. It is obvious that, as far as modern nutrition is concerned, new ways should be found and followed in the interests of everybody’s health.
Meanwhile, we can at least take advantage of our present knowledge and make a dish of oil seeds and honey. In doing so we will prevent oxidation and the deterioration of the nutritional value of the oil seeds. Creamed into a spread, poppy seeds, freshly ground sunflower seeds or any other oil seed and honey, is about the healthiest and most strengthening food that exists. Furthermore, it is a splendid food and remedy for those who suffer from liver problems.
