The Many Benefits of Broccoli Sprouts

Did you know that broccoli sprouts have 50 times more sulforaphane potential than broccoli florets? Sulforaphane is a naturally occurring glucosinolate that has numerous health benefits. In fact, broccoli is one of the healthiest vegetables around due to sulforaphane. Let's take a closer look at some of the benefits of sulforaphane and why you should consider adding broccoli sprouts to your diet.

Sulforaphane has been shown to improve heart health, boost cognitive function, and protect against cancer. One study even showed that sulforaphane can help treat autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Sulforaphane is a powerful antioxidant that can help neutralize free radicals and reduce inflammation throughout the body.

Broccoli sprouts are also rich in vitamins A, C, and E, as well as fiber and carotenoids. These nutrients are essential for overall health and well-being. Fiber helps promote regularity and can prevent constipation, while carotenoids are known for their anti-inflammatory properties. Vitamins A and C are important for immune function, while vitamin E is essential for healthy skin and eyes.

As you can see, there are many good reasons to add broccoli sprouts to your diet. Not only are they rich in nutrients, but they also have Sulforaphane which has many scientifically proven health benefits. So next time you're at the grocery store, don't forget to pick up some broccoli sprouts!

Suggested Usage: Soak 1/4 cup seeds overnight in room temperature water. Drain and put in sprouting jar or other sprouting unit and follow directions for that unit. Store in a dark environment for several days. On about the fourth day, place in indirect sunlight to develop chlorophyll in sprouts. Rinse and drain daily until sprouts are ready (about 3-5 days). Add 1/2 tsp. of NOW Real Food® Citric Acid Powder per pint of rinsing water to reduce mold formation. Enjoy broccoli seeds alone or as part of a salad.
