Only way it can be cured is by increasing the level of L. Casei in the digestive system. Mung Bean soaked fermented water contain L. Casei. This fermented water that is a by-product of Mung Bean sprouting, can be produced as follows:
1) Take one half cup (100 cc) of Mung Bean and wash thoroughly with clean water in the evening. Drain and add 2 cups of fresh water and then add 1 oz of fermented water if available.
2) Allow 12 hour fermentation. Separate the fermented water using plastic or stainless steel net. Save about 1 oz (30 cc) for the next fermentation. Then continue with sprouting.
3) Drink the fermented water in the morning on empty stomach for 8 to 12 weeks.
This will cure Diabetes Type II.
Best wishes. P. Raghavan.

Thanks for the interesting recipe. The first part is clear, that is, the filtering off of the femented water which is approx 2 cups minus the 30 cc.
But it is not clear how much of this filtered fermented water should be taken each morning. Assuming one takes only say 100 cc each time, the remainder of the 500 cc (2 x 250 cc) - 30 cc fermented water will last 4-5 mornings.
Questions:
[1] So, does this mean that one will need to make a fresh batch of fermented water every 4th day (which becomes ready 12 hours later and available on the 5th day, when the supply of fermented water runs out)?
(2) Can the fermented water keep for 4-5 days in the fridge?
(3) How does the fermented water compare with the commercial yogurt drink like Yakult, Vitagen, etc. which contain L. casei too? I drink one bottle of Yakult every morning + a cap containing a spectrum of gut flora culture - around 19 types.
Could you pls address the above issues [1] & [2] so that the recipe becomes more complete and settled?
Thanks! Cjuan.

I used small cup (200 cc) measure. One has to drink 370 cc ( = 2 x 200 - 30 )of fermented water in the morning on empty stomach. Therefore you have to make fresh fermented water everyday. Only 30 cc of fermented water need to be stored for the next fermentation in the middle section of refrigerator. I hope this answered your questions.

It is better to take Mung Bean Soaked Fermented water in the morning on empty stomach. At that time, there will no stomach acid in the digestive system since some probiotic strains may not survive in stomach acid.

Dear Sarita,The first time you soak dried mung beans for the 12 hours, you will not have the fermented water to begin the soak. Once you have soaked the mung beans you will have the 30cc of fermented water for the next day to begin with, and every day thereafter do the same, I.e. separate 30 cc of fermented water from your soaked Mung bean water to keep for the next batch, before drinking the rest 270cc.
Place the 30cc into middle of fridge for safekeeping till you start your next batch of mung beans to soak and add your 30 cc. FYI, I still drank the first batch and noticed the taste was a little stronger after the addition of the fermented water the second morning and thereafter.
Hope this helps, peace and health.

My sister and I used the same beans for two days only. We did try to stretch it to 3 days but the taste and color was lighter. Which may not mean a thing but we thought maybe it was not as good as it could be. So we used the same beans 2 times. Meaning 2 separate 12 hour soakings of the same beans.Then start with new dried mung beans. We would use all liquid from fermented beans, drinking 270 cc and keeping 30 cc in middle of fridge as P. Raghaven suggests above. We have found that If the house is cool and all liquid poured off the mung beans they sit fine on the counter in a covered bowl till time for next soaking.
Hope this helps, peace and health.

Just to be crystal clear, do you have to use new beans each day, or can you continue to use them until they sprout? Thank you

Do I soak every day fresh beans or soak same beans again for few days for better fermentation?
