Why do I need to soak my nuts? I have been eating a raw pecan and sundried raisin combo lately. Yum! I have also eaten other raw nuts, and am not sure why I would need to soak them.

The reason you soak nuts is to release the enzyme inhibitors, without going into alot of detail, the only nuts you NEED to soak are almonds, hazelnuts (filberts) and cashews. The only seeds you need to soak are sunflower seeds.

And to make it even more interesting ALL nuts ARE seeds.
