Many recipes call for buttermilk and eggs.
If you are a strict vegetarian and/or subscribe to the principles of
Natural Hygiene that recommend not to combine carbs with animal
proteins, there is a lighter alternative that will not cause the
heartburn that eating carbs and animal proteins can cause.*
You can substitute both the buttermilk and the egg with the same amount
of soy drink as buttermilk that the recipe calls for. Just clabber with
the soy drink with the juice of a lemon. You will see it curdle
immediately.
The baked product will hold together beautifully.
*Eating carbs and animal proteins causes heartburn and indigestion for
a very simple reason.
Proteins require an acidic enviornment in the stomach to be digested.
Carbs require a more alkaline enviornment.
What happens when we mix acid and alkaline? Right! Neutralization.
Neither get digested for a very long time and sit in the stomach and
rot.
Eating meat, eggs or hard cheese with a carb can cause it to remain in
the gastrointestinal tract for up to two days. That's a whole lot of
putrification. That is the basis of toxemia and that is what Natural
Hygience teaches you how to eat to avoid.
Don't believe it? Ever burp after eating a heavy meal of animal
proteins and carbs? It tasted like rot. Right? It was.
