Sprouts are in true sense superfoods. They are pure, whole and natural foods. It is the cheapest and most convenient source of complete nourishment .They are very good for long term health and wellness. They prevent diseases and life style related ailments. Sprouting a seed produces an enormously enhanced bundle of nutrients.

Sprouts are actually baby plants and essentially pre- digested foods. Nutritional changes that occur during sprouting are mainly due to complex compounds getting broken down into simpler forms. This added to development of some essential nutrients , and, constituents .

Sprouted seeds acquire natural increased digestibility and nutrients as compared to unsprouted seeds.Sprouts provide us with all the essential minerals and vitamins and must ideally form a part of our daily diet.

I really like sprouts - I think they are so tasty and nutritious, and I do often incorporate them (when I remember) into meals - thanks for reminding me about their virtues. :-) Virtuous sprouts - that tickles me. :-)
