Started eating fava beans again, feeling much better!

I recently found a way to get these tasty peeled and steamed beans directly from Melissa’s Produce since local supermarkets no longer carried them. I eat them every day, cold, in a salad or smoothie, and I’m noticing less extreme off times and fatigue. C/L medication remains at 25-100 three times daily as it’s been since 2017. Improvement could also be from the addition of ascorbic acid powder and broccoli sprout powder, better weather and not having to wear masks outside. Whatever, I’m grateful.

How do you get them? How much do you eat each day?

Melissasproduce.com is the importer from France. I eat a third to a half cup. Some US supermarkets carry them or will order for you.

I didn't realize that she sells direct to consumer. I found her website at melissas.com. Thanks!

Thank you for this idea! I am going to try fava beans! May I ask what kind of broccoli sprout powder you use? I have broccoli pills that are terribly overpriced and so tiny I doubt they do much. Dr. Rhonda Patrick of Found My Fitness has a program on her website about how to grow broccoli sprouts. It's high on my list to do it. In the meantime, can you please share your broccoli powder source? Thank you!
