How Does Religious Confirmation Help

Inca experimenting with stevia and lemon grass

Inca today actually at the Stevia sowing
Marion is indeed a passionate teacher of us. For weeks now stand on every available surface in the living room and kitchen pots growing and every day see new plants from the earth. For me, the young shoots all look pretty much the same, but know for Marion exactly what is growing as to what pot. And every year they experimented with new flowers and vegetables. This winter, chestnuts are their favorites. The seeds she has personally collected. The first Esskastanienbäumchen are almost four inches high. By the time the trees bear fruit and we can roast chestnuts delicious, it will still take a few years.
I will focus this year as a teacher at two plants: in Stevia and lemon grass . Since the two plants in Asia and South America are home and would not survive our winter, I prefer them in pots approaching frost on the window sill.
Stevia, also called honey herb, is the perfect alternative to sugar. The Sweet Kraut is many times sweeter than sugar, but has absolutely no calories and is completely harmless to the teeth. S chon the Indians in pre-Columbian stevia to sweeten and used for healing purposes. I n Japan has already captured 50 percent of Stevia sweeteners and is now available in powder and tablet form as a sweetener in any teahouse, cafe or restaurant - as a healthy alternative to sugar and sweeteners.
Unfortunately stevia as a sweetener in Germany and almost the entire EU previously not allowed. The reason: There are no convincing scientific evidence that eating is not harmful to health. After the World Health Organization has found safety in 2008, joined in April 2010, the European Food Safety Authority for the classification of stevia as a safe food. The EU-wide approval of stevia is now considered very likely, however, is not expected before the end of 2011 with it. The authorization for which has for years, the initiative free stevia would be a severe blow to the office of the European sugar Mafia, but for our health is a major advance. Pending official approval as a food can be dried stevia leaves and stevia liquid extracts as cosmetic and dental care products declared in health food stores or online purchase order. But on ebay romp various providers.
Stevia leaves are harvested at the beginning of flowering (late summer / early fall). Then the stevioside content, which accounts for the sweetness, the greatest. They can collect however also the whole summer. dried, they are almost unbegrenzr durable.
While Stevia is the sweetener to the tea, lemon grass makes for a very special flavor. Since I've been drinking for the first time tea with lemon grass, I'm really addicted to it. The taste is fresh and lemon-like, but much finer and more noble, and the tea aroma intoxicating as a rose. It is not always that easy to get the fresh lemon grass - usually you find in large, urban supermarkets, Asialaden or international delicacy stores. For Lemon grass found, often in combination with ginger, in many Asian dishes use. To meet the growing use
I have no seeds, but a fresh plant that I put in a glass of water and wait until the fine roots develop. Then I can put the plant in a pot. The potting soil should be possible with much Sand can be mixed.
tomorrow!
PS: If you wonder why I'm wearing for days on all the photos a teal shirt: I think the color is so beautiful that I bought three shirts from this variety, which I now alternate with the shirts in my other favorite color (Berry) Wear.
