Muesli is healthy and easy to put together with nuts

  1. Muesli is a product that we can compose very easily ourselves and which therefore fits very well in a diet when we want to lose some weight. Muesli has been around since 1900 and comes in many forms. The products for sale in the store often contain too much sugar, it is very tasty but not so good for your health due to the sugars. That is why it is much more sensible to buy individual ingredients and assemble the muesli yourself.

The history of Muesli

  1. Around 1900 muesli was used for the first time in a clinic in Switzerland. It was prescribed by Dr. Bircher Benner who was born in 1867 who is sometimes called the discoverer of the muesli. This doctor was a vegetarian and nutritionist. He was already of the opinion that many of the food had been processed and that the nutritional value of many products had been affected. In Dr. Bircher Benner especially fruits, vegetables and nuts are very important. Dr. Bircher Benner mainly sought harmony between man and nature. Grains, nuts, fruits, yogurt and cottage cheese are included in this diet.

Muesli recipe from Dr. Bircher Benner

  1. Originally the muesli was actually eaten as a paste. For this we take

Preparation with nuts

  1. Chop the nuts and take the soaked oatmeal. Grate the apples and add half a lemon. Mix it all with one tablespoon of milk. We can continue to experiment with this original recipe.

Muesli as a meal replacement, but with nuts

  1. We can see muesli as a full meal replacement because it contains vitamins, fiber and carbohydrates. Breakfast or lunch can be replaced by eating muesli. Grains, fruits and nuts quickly give a feeling of satiety. If no sugars are added, muesli has a low glycemic value. As a result, the blood sugar level will hardly rise. Muesli is also good to prepare at home as a healthy lunch and to take to the office where you add the yoghurt or milk.

Muesli that we buy ready-made

  1. It is possible to buy ready-made muesli, but then you have to pay close attention to the ingredients. Read the label to see if sugars have been added, but also pay attention to the amount of fruit with added sugar. Sometimes there are tasty pieces of dried fruit in the muesli that are completely sugared. It gets worse when we buy cruesli. Syrup, honey or fructose is often added here, which makes the muesli nice and crispy. With that, the benefits of the low glycemic value will disappear and we will gain weight instead of losing weight.

Create your own muesli with milk or yoghurt

  1. To compose your own muesli you can choose from different products. The basis is always:

Cereals

  1. Everyone has a preference for certain cereals. Buy different types of these such as barley, oats and wheat or rye flour. All these products can be stored for a long time if they are stored properly and dry. Some yeast flakes can be added to this if you think you need extra vitamin B. Some linseed or bran can be added for a good bowel movement.

Notes

  1. Then you can choose from hazelnuts, walnuts, almonds, cashew nuts, Brazil nuts. This coarse chop is best, but some choose to grind the nuts whole. This is a personal choice.

Fruits fresh or dried

  1. You can vary endlessly with fruits. Think of apple, pear, pineapple, banana, peach or in summer strawberries or berries. But we can also add pieces of coconut. You can add some raisins or dates to taste. Dried apricots are also delicious in muesli.

Yogurt, quark or milk

  1. We usually eat muesli with milk or yogurt, but it is also very tasty and nutritious to take half yogurt and half quark. Yogurt is a milk product and curd cheese is fresh cheese. Both are available without fat. This gives a feeling of satisfaction so that people will not start snacking quickly and the snacks become redundant.
