Sprouts in Dublin

May 5, 2010

Clover-SproutsSprouts are one of the healthiest foods on the planet.  They are tasty, look great and are excellent mixed into any salad or accompanying any main dish.

Sprouts are the young shoots from vegetables and grains.  They are produced when a seed starts growing into a vegetable or a grain.

They have between 10 -30 times more nutrition than the healthiest vegetable.  Their nutrition is very easily obtainable.  At this young stage, their nutritional make-up is assembled in their simplest forms – starches are sugars, proteins are amino acids and fats are essential fatty acids.  Furthermore, their cell walls are not fully formed and thus very easy for us to unlock their goodness.

Sprouts are among some of the most healing and nutritious foods you can eat.  They all contain phytochemicals such as anti-oxidants, bio-flavanoids, saponins, carotenes, enzymes and iso-flavones to name a few, which work to keep the body healthy and strong.healthy_body

Sprouts are all alkaline forming in the body – that is they work to keep the body’s pH above 7.  Dis-ease of any kind thrives in a acid rich environment (pH below 7)  By eating foods that are alkaline forming to the blood – green vegetables, raw and living foods, we are greatly reducing the risk of illness.

The healing benefits of sprouts can also be attributed to the fact that they are still living up until the moment you eat them.  This living dimension can bring more vitality and energy into the body.   as they are still attached to their l

Greens n sprouts saladEating sprouts, and having them regularly in your diet will greatly help with keeping you youthful, vibrant and energetic.  There are thousands of ways to use them.   They snaze up any sandwich.  They bring radiance to salads and main dishes.  I personally love mixing them into any rice or quinoa dish which brings life and colour!  Use your imagination! Be creative!
