Muesli

Muesli is a popular breakfast product consisting of oat flakes and (dried) fruit, milk or yogurt that is eaten. Yoghurt with muesli can also be enjoyed as a dessert.

Muesli has a number of variants: so is there a crunchy variant with a sugar layer (also called cruesli named after the brand name of the first Crunchy muesli), and there are several mixtures, for example with chocolate, one with dried fruit. ==Bircher-Benner[ Edit] == All of these modern cereals are at odds with the idea of the original muesli. Granola is in 1900 by the Swiss physician Maximilian Bircher-Benner for his patients developed as diet food.

Dr. Bircher-Benner was one of the first nutritionists that Western diseases attributed to a power supply that no longer "lebensfrisch" or fresh from the nature was. He went out of a vegetarian diet. His theory was simply that the human organism can best thrive and recover by raw and processed as little as possible to eat fruits, seeds andvegetables .

Fish and Meat and dairy and eggs also had in his optics reduced nutritional value, because the animals in the food chain consumed a good portion of the vitamins and solar energy. Also refined sugars and whitebread in his eyes were powerless food.

Muesli (Swiss-German: Müesli) is the Swiss Word for ' Xavier ', ' paste ' (says one in Switzerland ' Müsli ', then it means a small mouse). The original muesli was not based on the oatand wheat flakes, but on the fruits. Oermuesli consisted of 2 or 3 small apples, grated whole, including the seeds, Peel and core, a tablespoon of ground walnuts, hazelnuts or almonds. Only one level tablespoon of oatmeal, which one had voorgeweekt 12 hours in 3 tablespoons water, and the juice of half a lemon and 1 tablespoon condensed milk.
