Question:

Do I really have to soak nuts and seeds for them to be activated? If so, generally how long is everyone else doing it? I've soaked the nuts I buyfor about 6 hrs and they just stay kind of mushy and I don't enjoy the consistency anymore. . .especially macademia nuts. also, they go bad really quick. can i dehydrate the nuts after i soak them to get them back to a less mushy consistency?
