Protein is the only nutrient that can build, repair, and maintain body tissues. An adequate supply of proteins in the daily diet is essential. All tissues and fluids in the body, with the exception of bile and urine, contain some protein.
Dead cells need to be replaced and damaged cells need to be repaired. As proteins form the basis for every body cell, it is obvious that the greatest need for protein is during growth stages such as infancy, childhood, adolescence, and pregnancy. Infants and children need the most protein in proportion to their size.

The process of soaking seeds, draining the water, and leaving them untouched till they germinate is called sprouting. When seeds are soaked in water, they begin to warm up and produce carbon dioxide. Seeds are dormant, or at least close to dormancy. When we provide them with warmth and moisture they start to grow.

Honey is made by bees gathering nectar from flowers. They put the nectar in their honey stomach and bring it back to the hive. The bee passes the nectar to another bee when it gets back to the hive. ... Honey will not fermente at this point and will remain preserved as long as it is kept sealed. Honey starts as flower nectar collected by bees, which gets broken down into simple sugars stored inside the honeycomb. The design of the honeycomb and constant fanning of the bees' wings causes evaporation, creating sweet liquid honey. Honey's color and flavor varies based on the nectar collected by the bees
