Greetings,
I was curious about a statement below regarding the use of grains.  How
do you eat the grains raw?  I have always found this to be more than I
could manage as grain is so darn hard to chew.  Also what signs would
one regard as indicating  the need for grains in the body?

Thank you for any info
