Lupine has powerful therapeutic properties, it lowers blood sugars in diabetics if you;

“…simmer 1/2 cup of lupine beans in 2 quarts of water and then simmer until 1 Quart of water is left. Drink around 4 ounces daily of the water until blood sugars are reduced then drink less of it. When blood sugars are normal then diet alone may be relied on?..” (paraphrased)

This is from a very rare book I was reading on Vitamin and Mineral Deficiencies by Robert E. Cornish.

I didn’t use lupin for its therapeutic properties but because it not only has very few carbs usable by the body but also because it holds a dough together better than almond flour. :wink:

Where did you get that tortilla maker? Never seen one of those… I use a tortilla press and a cast iron griddle (comal).
