Colon Hydrotherapy: Mucoid-Forming Activity of Foods
The foods here are listed in order of the intensity of their mucoid forming properties. Note that meats and dairy products are very high, while grains and sprouts are low-mucoid-forming.
High > Low
- Dairy products
pasteurized or raw cow's milk but not raw goat's milk, butter, cheese cream, yogurt, kefir, whey
- Flesh foods
meat, fish, eggs
- Soybeans
tofu, soy milk
- Other legumes
dry beans, lentils, dry peas
- Buckwheat
grain, flour, cereal
- Seeds and nuts
sunflower, sesame, pumpkin seeds, all nuts
- Sprouts
The longer the sprouting time, the lower the mucoid forming activity. Bean and pea sprouts are totally non-mucoid-forming after 3 to 4 days sprouting time; grains, buckwheat, and soy are non-mucoid-forming after 6 days.
- Honey
Mucoid-forming activity depends on source of honey; all honeys are low in mucoid forming activity, except for eucalyptus honey, which is relatively high.
Non-mucoid-forming foods
- Vegetables and fruits
Completely non-mucoid-forming, except for gas-ripened and sulfured dried fruits, which are high in mucoid-forming-activity.
