Powerful nutrition
Studies suggest that consuming the sprouted seeds of legumes provides nutritional benefits. For example, sprouted mung beans or lentils have been reported to be richer in vitamin C or other antioxidants compared to their unsprouted counterparts.1-3 Also, in some studies, sprouting increased the protein content or digestibility, or the accessibility of minerals in legumes. There is also evidence that sprouting breaks down some compounds responsible for the gastrointestinal upset some people experience after eating beans.1, 4, 5
Sprouts of many cruciferous vegetables have a much higher concentrations of isothiocyanate (ITC) precursors than the fully grown vegetable plant. For example, broccoli sprouts have a higher concentration of the precursor to sulforaphane than mature broccoli plants.6
