They may look similar to a plantlike cotton ball, but sprouts are a wonderful source of nutrients! Sprouts like alfalfa, radish, broccoli, clover and soybean contain a plant compound called phytochemicals that protects us from diseases. Sprouts can help prevent osteoporosis and the fight against fibrocystic breast tumors. Alfalfa contains canavanine, which fights against leukemia, pancreatic, and colon cancers. Alfalfa also contains saponins that help in lowering bad cholesterol and fat. Overall, sprouts contain an abundant source of active antioxidants that help keep us safe and healthy! [1]
Add some sprouts to your meal. The light crunch will add a great flavor while adding nutrients to your body.
Express your love today!
