Summer often gives us a break from our normal routines and is usually filled with more outside activities. While these hot, fun-in-the-sun activities make summer more enjoyable – these activities also make it more important to stay fully hydrated. Without hydration, human beings simply could not survive, and of all forms of nourishment, water is the most vital. Water is essential for our hydration and for many bodily processes. It is also a vital source of minerals.

Sara Valentine has struggled severely with her health since she was a very young child. Finally, at age 19, she received a few answers and remedies that helped her get through the next decade. One of these "remedies" included adopting a completely gluten-free diet. Although her symptoms diminished with this new diet, and Sara felt better, it wasn't until she was introduced to freshly-milled grain that she finally found the healing that her body was really craving. With extreme hesitancy and caution, Sara tried homemade bread made from freshly-milled grain, and to her complete surprise, she was able to digest this bread with no negative symptoms at all. Since that day, Sarah has been eating bread made from freshly-milled grain every day and has never felt better!

Knowing the best type of grain to use when converting your favorite recipe from refined, white flour to freshly-milled flour can sometimes be confusing and overwhelming.

Sue Becker had the recent pleasure of talking with Chelsea Blackbird, The Christian Nutritionist, and with Chelsea's permission, we are also sharing their conversation with you today. Chelsea's story is sure to resonate with many, as over the years, she began to question the anti-bread and anti-grain teachings that give contradiction to God's Word. This is when she was introduced to Bread Beckers, where she began to listen to Sue's teachings that lead to her to gaining a whole, new understanding of the unique health benefits of real, whole grains. Then, after 10 years of being gluten-free, Chelsea decided to make a radical change and introduce real bread, made from freshly ground flour, into her diet.

When Sue Becker speaks about whole-grains, she is including all foods that are the seed of the plant as well as the fruit of the plant, which of course, would include both grains and beans. Beans are one of the most versatile and commonly eaten foods throughout the world. In fact for many people groups, beans and rice are a staple food if not one of the only foods readily available for them. Dry beans are also seeds that are considered a very nutrient rich food. Beans are a truly nutrient dense food group and contain only a moderate amount of calories. And, because of their high concentration of health promoting nutrients, consuming more beans has been shown to improve over all health. For more information, visit our website at breadbeckers.com.

We, at Bread Beckers, love to hear stories of improved health - especially from those who have begun to mill their own grain and make their own bread. Darrell Bice definitely has a story that may sound very familiar to some. He was suffering from many stomach issues that left doctors baffled and confused. These symptoms prohibited him from living a normal life, which included not being able to travel far from home and always needing to know the location of the nearest restroom. We know that you will be just as blessed and encouraged by his story as we are!

In this episode of Sue's Healthy Minutes, Sue Becker introduces us to another little seed that we will want to include in our whole foods menu - Buckwheat. But, in spite of its name, buckwheat is not related to wheat at all, nor is it even a grain. Buckwheat, however, can be used in similar ways to grains. It can be milled into flour, boiled whole and eaten, and even enjoyed raw to add a little crunch to salads or granola. Buckwheat flour is also an excellent choice for making pancakes, muffins, and crepes. Crepes made with buckwheat flour are less delicate, and this allows them to work very well when used as wraps and tortillas.

Today, Sue Becker continues our journey in exploring the goodness of whole grains, by introducing one of her favorite little grains – Millet. Contrary to popular belief, Millet is not just a birdseed. Millet is far too nutritious and delicious to just be given to the birds, and in this episode, Sue confirms this for us, as she also reveals that the Farmer's Almanac has officially declared 2023 to be the International Year of Millet.

There is such a diversity in the world of grains that one should never get bored with the varieties available, and today, Sue Becker focuses on one that is sometimes a less popular grain of choice by many - Rye. Rye is unique, versatile, and very nutritious. It is most popular in many areas of the world with harsh weather conditions, due to its ability to grow in extremely cold climates. It can also be considered superior when looking for weight-loss alternatives. If Rye is not suitable to your taste, Sue also gives alternate uses for Rye, other than just as bread.

Sue Becker shares about food cravings and gluttony. She answers the question of why we might have food cravings and then gives great ideas on how to satisfy them. Proverbs 23:1-3 warns us about sitting down to dine at the king's table. The verses tell us to consider carefully what is before us - even to put a knife to our throats lest we be given to gluttony. It goes on to warn us that the king's dainties and delicacies are deceptive foods. It wasn't until Sue started on her journey of real bread that she came to better understand what these verses might mean to her, personally, and to us in today's world.

While in the heartland of Israel, Sue and Brad Becker helped harvest grapes and plant trees alongside 25 other volunteers. Sue also shared, with a group at Hayovel, the nutritional benefits of real bread made from freshly-milled whole grains. After recovering from being very sick for the first few days, Sue was able to share the history of white flour and the common diseases that soon followed that are directly related to commercial flour.

Have you ever found yourself saying, "I used to make all my bread, but then we just got so busy?" If so, this episode is for YOU! Over the years, we have heard many stories about how some were once milling wheat and making bread. Then, other things ended up getting in the way - leaving little to no time for doing the very thing that was giving their bodies the nourishment it needed. And, unfortunately, their health began to suffer because of it. 1 Thessalonians 5:21 tells us to "hold fast to what is good," and today, Sue Becker gives a little encouragement and motivation for doing just that.

People often remark that they cannot eat bread or at least have to limit their consumption of bread because they have diabetes or issues related to elevated blood sugar. We have been lead to think that diabetics must avoid carbohydrates. But do they really?

Many years ago, Sue Becker had the wonderful privilege of ministering at a women's shelter in downtown Atlanta. Even though this event encouraged her in many ways spiritually, it also lead her to question her calling for sharing the goodness that freshly-milled grain has on our physical bodies. As she prayed for God to confirm the new calling she felt on her life, He actually surprised her by showing that she was already doing exactly what he was desiring for her and what He had already called her to do. It just looked a little different than what she had in mind. This is the moment when Sue finally realized that sharing her knowledge about freshly-milled whole grains - and eating real bread - fits exactly with what she was feeling that God was telling her, after all. So, in this episode, Sue revisits the history of white flour and shares the alarming and oh-so-familiar effects our bodies can experience, by simply sifting away the bran and germ.

Sue Becker will never forget the very first It's the Bread story that she received regarding an amazing real bread testimony. It was that very story that lead her to a more in-depth study of the nutritional benefits of real whole grains and real bread. That early morning call came with an excited customer who had been working for years, with no luck, to lower her high cholesterol levels. However, with only one month of eating real bread - made from freshly-milled grain - her cholesterol level had already dropped 85 points! Sue began to wonder, "What nutrients could be in this real bread that could make such a drastic change in such a short amount of time?' And thus, her passion for studying began, where she soon learned another benefit that the freshly-milled grain has on our health and, more importantly, our heart.

In most bread baking, fats provide tenderness, moisture, and color, as well as, flavor to breads. The type of fat used in a recipe, along with the method for incorporating it into the other ingredients, will influence both the texture and flavor of the finished product. Last week, Sue Becker shared that Extra Virgin Olive Oil is her oil of choice for most of her bread baking, such as yeast bread and most quick breads. Today, she shares her favorite solid fats that she uses in baking pastries, that includes cakes, cookies, brownies, biscuits, and pie dough. For more information, visit breadbeckers.com.

Sue Becker shares her oil of choice for cooking and baking. For most of her bread baking - bread, muffins, pancakes, coffee cakes and other quick breads - she uses Extra Virgin Olive oil. In 1991, when Sue first began making all of her bread from freshly milled flour, she used the popular vegetable oils sold in the store. Unfortunately at the time, she did not know better and now only uses Extra Virgin Olive Oil for all of her cooking and baking needs. Sue also conveys how not all olive oil is the same and the reasons why. She delivers what to look for when purchasing olive oil and points toward brands that are best suitable for consumption.

Sue Becker continues her two-part series on The Facts About Fats. In this episode, she talks about the amazing role of essential fatty acids in the body. There are a number of fatty acids found in foods containing oil, but there are only 3 that are considered essential. These 3 fatty acids cannot be made by our bodies, so we must get them from the foods we eat. Sue goes into detail about how these fatty acids are not only essential to proper function of cells, but that we could not exist without them in our bodies.
