Healthy Eating: Braggs Liquid Amino's

In today's healthy eating tip I will indulge you in our secret sauce.
BRAGG's LIQUID AMINO's
This is an interesting liquid. See below for the labeling. The follow on...



With less sodium than soy sauce, and more amino acids, this is a healthy alternative to using those products. There have been some sources stating MSG related issues. So if you have a sensitivity to MSG this may not be for you. There are no additives, preservatives, chemicals, coloring agents, or added sodium. Braggs is not fermented or heated and is easily digestible. In this secret process soybeans are converted into a liquid vegetable protein. Amino acids, our body builders, are the foundation of this protein. Dr. Bragg firmly believed that it is necessary to replenish our bodies with protein rich amino acids in order to keep feeding the process and production of new cells. He introduced this formula to aid formation and interaction of all body functions necessary to sustain and rejuvenate every tissue, organ and muscle. Braggs amino contains all eight essential amino acids and is free of cholesterol and uric acid ... By adding Braggs to your daily diet, you are receiving not only a dose of nourishing liquid protein but also a natural source of sodium with quality flavor.
