I have been sprouting for a couple of years now! And replacing foods that are less nutritional. losing weight is more natural and easier. Thank you for this presentation can always learn!😁

I was so into hydroponics but going to switch to growing microgreens

This info is priceless for me. I can't take vitamins and or herbal supplements without having heart and other adverse symptoms. But eating the foods that have what my depleted body needs is the best way of getting those nutrients. And microgreens seem to be the most potent source for me. Even over sprouts. Thank you for breaking this down so we can at least get started on the microgreens we are needing! I will be going to WholeFoods immediately to start my nutritional therapy. By the way - you are just the cutest and down to earth. Even YOU we're astounded to learn these wonderful facts!! Remember what the Bible says: Good gave the earth to mankind. He has provided ALL we need to live here. And in abundance! Thank u again. Be looking for more of your informative videos

Thanks for your effort. Its amazing

Research paper from 2009: Radish sprouts and broccoli sprouts have been implicated in having a potential chemoprotective effect against certain types of cancer. Each contains a glucosinolate that can be broken down to an isothiocyanate capable of inducing chemoprotective factors known as phase 2 enzymes. In the case of broccoli, the glucosinolate, glucoraphanin, is converted to an isothiocyanate, sulforaphane, while in radish a similar glucosinolate, glucoraphenin, is broken down to form the isothiocyanate, sulforaphene. When sprouts are consumed fresh (uncooked), however, the principal degradation product of broccoli is not the isothiocyanate sulforaphane, but a nitrile, a compound with little anti-cancer potential. By contrast, radish sprouts produce largely the anti-cancer isothiocyanate, sulforaphene. The reason for this difference is likely to be due to the presence in broccoli (and absence in radish) of the enzyme cofactor, epithiospecifier protein (ESP). In vitro induction of the phase 2 enzyme, quinone reductase (QR), was significantly greater for radish sprouts than broccoli sprouts when extracts were self-hydrolysed. By contrast, boiled radish sprout extracts (deactivating ESP) to which myrosinase was subsequently added, induced similar QR activity to broccoli sprouts. The implication is that radish sprouts have potentially greater chemoprotective action against carcinogens than broccoli sprouts when hydrolysed under conditions similar to that during human consumption.

Thank you for the video.

Thanks excellent information. I have been sprouting for decades and have a microgreen machine that automatically mists etc. I love my microgreens especially in the winter when the garden is out but it is SOOO expensive to buy the seeds and the weight of the sprouts is nothing compared to a cabbage for eg. So I think the nutrient comparison for the microgreens versus the vegetable is not really comparable in reality. You might need a kingsize bed area of growing the micro greens to compare to 1 head of cabbage. I do not trust the vitamin content that is available in the full grown broccoli. Up until recently the last time they did the test was back in pre 70's and with our farming techniques now the soil is so poor that the numbers were less than 1/2 of what they used to be. and minerals are almost negligible now as farmers rarely add minerals just the 3 chemical fertilizers nit pot and phos. Anyhow great for winter and to add to your food but for sure with the legumes better to sprout and eat raw than make lentil soup etc. They are very cheap to buy in large bags also especially if you go to an east indian store. Get rid of your lawn folks and grow your greens/veggies and add minerals and go organic.

Quite delightful. I am convinced to start growing them.

Is there studies on microgreens vs full grown greens.

What has more nutritional quality sprouts or micro greens ?

@Permacrafters

3 жыл бұрын

Hi there! It depends on the type of nutrient. Both are incredibly nutritious, and different nutrients will peak at different stages of growth (sprout stage or microgreen stage). As of right now, there isn't more in-depth nutritional data comparing the two other than what I outlined in this video. I hope that helps!

broccoli seeds are 200 times as expensive as grown broccoli if you compare by weight.

It kind of reminds me of the way humans produce more sex hormones in their teenage years than they ever will in life. Because those hormones are needed to transform the body to adulthood. The nutrients in the sprouts are used to transform the plant from a seed to a fully mature plant.

@Permacrafters

2 жыл бұрын

that's so true! I like that comparison.

When you say, seed sprouts are 8 times more nutrition than fully grown, are you takling about for example 100gr of dried seed(that will eventualy sprout) are 8 times more nitritious than 100 gr fully grown plant ..or 100 gr of already sprouted seed(which is for example 20 gr of dried seed) is 8 times more nutrition that 100 gram fully grown plant Which state is actualy, 1st or 2nd..?

Wheat grass is GMO, all wheat that is grown is ,GMO

These comparisons (wt. and volume) between sprouts and mature vegetables are specious in that comparison is not made on a one to one basis. What is the comparison of one sprout to one mature vegetable? THAT is the only real comparison that is equal. For instance, a cup of radish sprouts would be made up of many hundreds, perhaps as much as a thousand sprouts, whereas one could only get four or five mature radishes (if that) in a cup. There is no argument that one can get more nutrition from less volume by eating the sprouts, but the argument beyond that part is invalid and illogical.

@Permacrafters

3 жыл бұрын

You can compare those numbers, too, if you're interested in that. I guess you'd have to estimate how many sprouts per weight or volume unit, and just divide it. From a practical nutritional perspective, I personally don't find that as applicable. I'm more interested in the fact that I can get much more nutrition from way less volume. For example, it was especially useful when I was pregnant - I could not eat large volume meals, so packing nutrients in smaller volumes of food was so helpful.

@jerrycallison6125

@@Permacrafters I don't dispute the difference in the nutrition available with less volume. That is obviously true, and the primary reason I have started growing microgreens. Mature plants are composed of much more starch and cell mass, which lessens the amount of nutritive content. Perhaps I'm too nerdish on such things, but I feel those of us in the sprout/microgreen growing community need to be careful about how we present our product. It is too easy to be labeled as presenting skewed information, much like those touting miracle cures from nutrition, etc. Many years ago, I was involved with a company that produced organic vitamins/mineral supplements. They started out well, with an excellent product, but then started doing some deceptive advertising by using false comparisons in their advertising. Perhaps I am overly sensitive to such machinations. I know you have no intent to deceive in what you are saying. I just urge you to be careful with the claims. I know the FDA has no oversight in sprouts/microgreens like it did when it shut down that company I was with. (Nor am I suggesting you are trying to defraud.) I would not want the government to try to regulate what we do. Already, there are states that are beginning to regulate our sales in farmers markets, and the like. We don't need to stir up more.

There are other aspects that aren't so easily measured such as ease of consumption. Have you ever attempted to eat multiple cups of mature greens all at once? It can be hard work. Then compare that to eating a handful of micro greens? - There is no comparison. I can slam a handful of microgreens and chew them up in a couple seconds. That same nutritional amount of whatever mature veg is a freaking workout. To me and a whole lot of other human omnivores, that's a huge deal.

DO NOT EAT RAW SPROUTS PERIOD. Especially if you try to do this at home. I bought a couple sprouting jars, and no matter how careful you are, you are all but putting out the welcome sign for E. coli, Salmonella, and who knows what else that grows in the dark. The only way to eat sprouts safely is to THOROUGHLY cook them beforehand, ironically, the same way as you would prepare meat! And then guess what? Cooking destroys all the super nutrients that sprouting offers, which means the whole project is a pointless exercise. Fortunately, I only bought a couple jars, which can be easily be repurposed. There are plenty of wonderful, healthy vegan dishes - cooked beans and lentils, steamed broccoli and kale, baked potatoes - to enjoy without needlessly exposing yourself to the absolutely real and deadly dangers of E. coli, Salmonella. Worth repeating loud and clear: DO NOT EAT RAW SPROUTS PERIOD.
