So proud to be a micro greens farmer. I ALWAYS tell people about the sulphurophane in broccoli .... And I ONLY use soil. Thank you for this Dr Berg. I'll be sharing this A LOT
@@se5594 the youtube channel Princeton Microgreens, in my opinion, has the best advice. it's one of my informational resources for techniques, primarily
I agree. I also think It’s so they can make compounds that are similar and then to get us hooked on those compounds (while they act like their product is somewhat natural), and eventually leading to new ailments and needing the next new compound
The Pharmaceutical industry has always been quick to point out that they study herbs in making their products as if they were proponents of herbs. Yeah right.
my grandma made me eat clover or alfalfa for a sandwich when I was a small kid like 5 yrs old. She also told me this stuff will prevent not getting future cancer. She also said to put sprouts on top of the natto bean. When I grew up, still eats sprouts, mostly clover for salad or low-carb sandwiches. I've been eating those for years and no wonder why I'm still ageless!! Every morning I steam broccoli side with scrambled eggs, this stuff keeps me boosted and energized. Thank you!
is grandma alive? I know a grandma, who is nearing 100 and she never cared in details that what she eats is healthy and will prolong her life, she was not concious about this, even today her diet is not healthy. Go figure...

I've been eating these for 40 years and so easy to grow, you don't need to watch a 30 minute video on how to grow them, just put a tablespoon of Broccoli Sprout seeds into a jar allowing the air to get in using a piece of stocking or similar or a sprouting jar (they don't have to be in the dark just don't place in direct sunlight), rinse twice daily and around day 4 - 6 or so EAT. (can also be frozen).
Dr. Rhonda Patrick was interviewed on Andrew Huberman's podcast, and they briefly discussed sulforaphane. At one point she was talking about broccoli sprouts and broccoli, and she mentioned that if you cook broccoli, you somewhat lower the sulforaphane levels. However, if you put 1 gram of mustard seed powder on your cooked broccoli, it increases the sulforaphane by four-fold. Neat!!
I mix these sprouts in my dog's food. 50 percent of dogs over the age of 10 , will develop some form of cancer. For his joint support I feed green lipped mussel oil ,and krill oil I also add some pure pumpkin puree, and steamed pureed green beans Sorry for going off topic , but my dog is 12 yrs old and still run with younger dogs
You can grow broccoli sprouts in a mason jar and freezing them at about the 5-day mark helps retain the most Sulforaphane. Thanks for putting it back into my universe. I had studied this years ago.
Hi Dr. Berg, My family and I started a Agricultural Education non-profit organization back in Oct 2023. I was recently diagnosed with Breast Cancer in March of 2024. Since seeing your videos regarding microgreens, we decided to start growing them and eating them. We truly believe that they have helped with my treatment in terms of building my hemoglobin and boosting my immunity. We have since started sharing them with others in hopes that it helps them too. Just wanted to say thank you for all that you do. Would love to use some of your content at the Farmer's Markets for context to give people more visibility into the powerful effects of microgreens.
I work at a farm that grows Broccoli microgreens in the southern Vermont area, producing tons of this all the time! this is a great video spreading word of some of the amazing benefits of these foods!
It would be hard to count the number of times that Dr. Berg has confirmed or Introduced life saving information into my life. I rely very much on his knowledge and research to keep me on track. Thank you Dr. Berg
Supercool video! Wow, as an 11+ year cancer survivor I LOVE hearing and reading about natural nutrients that can protect and help heal us. What a jawdropper-that it took that crazy, frightening cancer crisis to open my eyes to how powerful what we eat and drink can be. It’s such a blessing to realize that we can have MEGA control over our health. Thanks so much for this video Dr. Berg and for all you share, it’s a constant gift!
Recipe: microgreens (usually broccoli sprouts for me), 1 stalk of organic celery chopped up, a big spoonful of sauerkraut (including the juice), a slice of avocado, and a sprinkling of raw pine nuts (pignolias). You don’t need any dressing because the sauerkraut juice is perfect on it.
It varies. Usually it’s about an hour or so after my main meal of the day. I usually only eat two meals per day (and no snacking) so I keep it in my 5 hour window when I let myself eat. It’s delicious! I have a friend hooked on it now and she doesn’t like sauerkraut or avocados usually, so now she does!
Thanks for this simple but very nutritious recipe . This is now my first meal of the day after my 18 hr fasting. It's awsome I add some olives and garlic n chilli kimchi.
Love when 6 am rolls around , it's time for a new video 😊 hope everyone has a great Friday ✌️ I put broccoli sprouts in my smoothies a few times per week .

Gillian McKeith from Scotland U.K spoke about the importance of sprouting and consuming them approximately twenty years ago. “You Are What You Eat”. She was ridiculed by most people as she was eating them and miso soup. She’s amazing and was well ahead of her time. She taught me so much and it’s interesting to see you talking about it now and how there’s all of a sudden a trend. Shame people didn’t listen twenty years ago, many of them might still be with us.
Read her book back then, ironically I was recently told to get a mini trampoline for rebounding exercises for lymphatic drainage, I remember that Gillian used one of these back then too. I must see if I still have her book.
Thank you Dr. Berg for this video. I have been growing and consuming microgreens and sprouts for 2 months now and it is so easy to grow these mini plants. I do broccoli, radish, alfalfa and lentil sprouts and will soon be growing red cabbage and green pea sprouts and, actually, enjoy them more in the microgreen form. I have them with breakfast and dinner in a small salad and am feeling better and better in support of a thoracic aneurysm and arthritis. Everyone should be doing this - it is as simple as falling off a log.
So basically, sprouts and microgreens are cheaper and faster to produce, have more nutrients and phytonutrients and fewer antinutrients and cause less inflammation. Consequently, you don't need to eat as many of them as you would need from full-grown vegetables. Unless there is some crazy catch hidden there, I can't see any reason to make some major changes to my salad ingredients from now on. Thanks Dr. Berg!
Does anyone else feel like Dr. Berg releases a relevant video exactly when a specific subject is on your mind? I have been eating broccoli microgreens religiously for the past 2 years. Now, I'm tempted to learn how to grow my own.
As I watch this I am eating a buffalo burger, sauted greens and about a cup of brocolli sprouts. I love them with ACV, lemon juice and EVO. My wife likes them on her salad. I've noticed that I digest them very well. I've been growing them from seed in an Easy Sprout container for about the last 7 weeks (Amazon). We start eating them after about 4 days and they are gone by day 7. I never put them in the fridge. I just take out what I want to eat and let the rest keep growing. Soak, stir and drain twice a day. I think I am going to get another container, so that we have sprouts all week long. Also, I soak them in 158 deg water for 10 minutes to increase the sulforaphane. Dr. Berg's videos have been helpful in the whole process.
This couldn't of come at a better time! I just ordered four 5 lb containers to do spouts. My #1 is broccoli sprouts! I should receive them in 2 to 3 days. You have just confirmed everything I wanted to know about these amazing benefits. Thank you!
Before there was penicillin, there were sulfur as a medication for common colds and flu. My Mom was allergic to penicillin. I made sure she ate lots of green veggies and she made it to 96. Many factors but that was one of them.
@@sharonproctor4079 We're all suffering from crappy processed food, driving us to medicate from symptoms resulting from them. and then living with medications that no longer work us or turn against us. Vicious circle I ended by KETO and fasting. 110 pounds later, I feel better in my late 70's than I did when I was in my 40's
I can't thank you enough for putting me wise to potassium deficiency! I switched to one of those " no salt c substitutes, and I feel much better. No more arrhythmia
You have helped me so much in my journey, to lose over 100lbs! Over the last 4 years, thanks, with all my heart. Which beats 💓 much better now, lol. Blessings at 69yrs.
This is the best physician channel on RUclips that I am aware of. Every video is sleek, professional and gold ✨ mine of valuable information on how to optimize health.
I cured my osteoporoses with broccoli. I had -4,6 in my lower back. A pound a day for 2 years even though a hated it. Result, normal values in my skelett 😀👍🏼💪🏻
I've been thinking of growing sprouts again. Used to in the 70s and 80s. Not sure why I stopped as love eating sprouts. Thanks for kick starting me back into growing them. 👍
We eat broccoli all the time but broccoli sprouts aren't something we see on every dinner table. Broccoli sprouts are grabbing wellness world's attention and for good reason. Thanks Dr Berg, great teaching. Informative as always.
Dr. Berg, Thank you for producing these videos. You have helped me more than any doctor ever has. Just started your protocol for low stomach acid and acid reflux and have seen good results and its only been 3 days. I grow microgreens and find them delicious and now I know they are definitely healthy for me. Great info.
Glad to see this info getting around more, thanks Doc. Broccoli sprouts are concentrated sources of sulforaphane, a type of isothiocyanate. Damaging broccoli sprouts - when chewing, chopping, or freezing - triggers an enzymatic reaction in the tiny plants that produces sulforaphane.
Thank you dr. Berg. I'm very grateful for everything we learn from you. You mentioned broccoli sprouts in an earlier video, being helpful when you have leaky guts. So I bought them and just started on my first batch.
organic freeze dried are much easier to deal with ive found..they keep their nutrients when freeze dried..i just put a scoop 2/3mg in 70 degree water..let it sit 10 mins then sip..
Dr. RONDAH Patrick really brought this to light, especially on her Joe Rogan interviews. She mentions a France product which we. Ant get in the US. But luckily BROQ is a product that is the US version which is also produced by this same company. This is what a lot of international studies have been based on.
Brilliant, thank you Dr.Berg. I have a large tray of broccoli sprouts (in he spare bedroom) growing in an inch of soil almost at micro green level now. I don't like sprout so much as the little seed cases get a bit slimey and can contain harmful.bacteria. Since it is winter I use a cheap little growlight to extend daylight hours. It working a treat.....loads of salad just in one 12" x 1 8" tray.
I am always looking forward to your video. Educational and informative. I believe most doctors don't know what they're talking about, but you're the first who I felt knows and have actual passion for the field
I learned about it from one of your other videos and then kept researching. It is supposed to prevent and remove brain plaques. Ever since I grow my own broccoli sprouts and use them in my vegetable smoothies.
@Nazeer Gaad I grow mine on special sprouting trays on sprouting paper and seed starter soil. Much better results than jars. If I find the video, I'll post.
Dr Berg you are always on point! So nice to hear a doctor who understands something about soil and plant health.. super important for healthy crops which make healthy people!
Another Excellent video from Dr Berg, this one on the benefits of Brocolli Sprouts and micro greens; strong anti-cancer and anti allergens properties; over 100x the benefit of the adult plant. I shall add it to my grocery list straight away !! Thks Dr Berg.
I’ve been taking Broccomax for a couple of years to add sulforaphane to my diet. No idea if it’s helpful, but the amount of studies on this do suggest it’s helpful and beneficial.
Be careful w those broccoli supplements, make sure it's a reputable one bc when they were independently tested the majority didn't have what they were stated to have.
Good stuff! I put a bunch of seeds in my food storage. They last forever and all you need is water and a mason jar to grow them any time of year. 1-2 tbsp fills the whole jar in about 5 days.
May ALLAH ALMIGHTY protect you always from any harm. Its an impression worldwide that who ever tries to do any unconventional thing against CANCER, is at risk of wrath of Multi billion dollar anti cancer pharmaceutical industry. You are doing a noble work Doc. Hats off to you.
Dr Berg thank you so much for your amazing videos. I have learnt so much about my health and how to take care of it and what to do and eat. You have literally saved my life.
Nice discussion, thank you. I’ve been alerted to this the past few days, and it seems very positive. I bought some broccoli sprouts today, rinsed before eating of course. Some collards, Brussels sprouts, radishes. 🍃
Dr Berg, thanks for again another interesting video 👌🏽👌🏽 This can really affect peoples lives positively. Advice we never would get from our doctor because mostly they dont care. Greetings from Netherlands🇱🇺
I now sprout my own broccoli sprouts. Only one store in my area even carries it, and their usually out. It's SO much cheaper to sprout your own and cheaper too!
Oh and one more vitally important thing when buying seed. Make sure they are Broccolli Calabrese and not Broccili Raab which is turnip I think. It is completely different and not real broccoli. Here in UK many sellers do not make that diistionc tion. Broccoli Raab is very cheap so that can be the 'bell ringer' !
Just purchased some Broccoli sprout seeds and the growing jars. Haven't grown any yet. Thank you for your video on the benefits of consuming Broccoli sprouts.
Broccoli sprouts are amazing. You can eat them on and in everything. I ate a lot of these while I was fighting breast cancer. I grow them use organic seeds. ♥
@@sensimania Yes I sure do, the tumor shrank from 6.2 cm to 1 cm using the sprouts along with chemo. They said they were surprised how small it got! I am growing another batch of the sprouts right now. I use organic seeds in a wide mouth quart jar. cm= centimeters
Yes. The only thing I would advise is, that if you have thyroid issues you may want to limit the amount of the sprouts that you eat. They would be a good way to avoid getting cancer, very powerful and full of nutrients.
It would help tremendously if you turned up the gain on you mic. Or something to increase volume. No matter what i do i can barely hear you. I find you channel very helpful Thank you.
Thanks a lot, Dr. Berg. i regularly watch your videos. thanks for helping lot of people around the world. Please make a video on Nicotinamide Mononucleotide. Best Regards.
This is very interesting.. Few hours ago while I was watering my microgreen mix I had some questions about seeds vs sprouts. And there we have this video!! Thanks Dr.B.
First time I saw your video about micro greens. I immediately started growing my own as a hobby. Now my mother is eating them. My daughter is eating them. Thank you so much. What do you think about sea-moss?
Glad to hear someone else finally talk about this. Dr. Rhonda patrick discussed this a while back. Sulpohorane and Prostaphane cured my H Pylori infection.
Your fanatic follower from Nigeria. You are very kind and knowledgeable. My only problem is some of the nutrients, minerals and other phytochemicals and phytonutrients you are recommending in your info-rich videos are not easily obtainable in my country most especially my region, North Western Nigeria.
Same here in our place in Philippines. You can fine in the city but living in the country side is different thing. Some can be bought through online but sometimes you end up buying fake products
I'd think it is quite easy to grow broccoli sprouts from seeds, especially in a warm climate with good soils such as in Nigeria? Or are seeds not available for purchase?
@@sunusiadamu5802 plenty of tutorials on RUclips! But all you need is some moist soul, the seeds and some improvised equipment, and a few days of patience.
I Like the Idea that you don't need to eat as much. By The Way I have been applying your advice into my work out program and I am very happy with the results. I can see where we have to be dedicated towards overriding bad eating habits especially carbs and sugar. I have found that fasting 2 to 3 hours longer in the morning along with working out at that time extremely effective. Thanks Doc c];-)
It is so easy to grow your own. Very epensive at the market. I use a baker's sieve and organic heritage seeds. Takes 4 days to get them going, and then let them grow. Ive done them in soil as well. Lovely in salads, on sandwiches -- or just as is. Rhonda Patrick built her career on the study of sulforophane.
Yes Dr Berg ..since I had cancer I juice my sprouts..I eat my sprouts and broccoli and cauliflower and cabbage etc...my last check up I had no inflammation and perfect blood work...I had non Hodgkin's lymphoma and it said dont eat saurkraut ..is that. True I love saurkraut..
Hi Dr Berg, im 36 and got a colon cancer with important metastasis in the liver (80% of the liver metastasized). Im very interested in your recommendation in fasting, but I was wondering if your best strategy reommendation of fasting is compatible with liver with mestastasis? Thanks for the help, Gui
Growing vegetable sprouts in aqiponics with red lighs at night and sunlight in the daylight hour's seems to have more nutrients in what I tested year's ago. Excellent vids. Can't beat keto . and fermentation vegetables . And hanging your beef longer to mature and break down the muscle.
Fun fact: according to Dr Rhonda Patrick, heating your broccoli sprouts with 158(F) water for 10 minutes dramatically increases bioavailability of sulforaphane.
I have a daily bowl of blue zone minestrone soup and put broccoli sprouts in the soup when it's cooled to 160, 10 minutes before eating. It's an easy way to consume them and get the most out of the sprouts. I enjoy them in my soup.
I’ve never heard of farmers growing micro greens in actual soil. Coco coir or some other substrate, yes, but not soil. I grow sprouts in jars and it’s so easy!
New information for me as a microgreens grower! Very interesting doctor Berg. Thank you so much also your clear explanation! If there will come more would be very happy to know. And use for my clients.
The screen replaces the little disc part of the lid. Just buy a little screen material from the hardware store and cut it to fit. Or you can use gauze. Just put the gauze over the mouth of the jar and either screw the lid on to hold it down, or use a rubber band.
DR Berg It seems that Hopkins University did get the patent for sulforaphane because it has an agreement with the company Brassica tea in Baltimore to produce green tea with broccoli extract. The packaging of this shows you the label that is under the patent Hopkings University. Maybe you don't want to advertise this product, however I ask you to please make a comment about this tea. It is not so easy to make broccoli sprouts at home. Please Please again. make a comment about brassica tea. It ease for many people to get it from amazon
A good tip now to get free seeds for the future: Grow one or two broccoli in your garden and et them flower (pollinators love those flowers) then wait for the seeds to form. Put a bag over and tie it on with an elastic band. You will be shocked by your amazing harvest.
@@dreamweaver8210 I don't know. Carrot and celery re-grow I know that. Basically, you are buying the flower head aren't you? The carrot and celery re-grow from the chopped off root end. I am guessing you would need the comlete broccoli, roots and all. Worth sticking a couple of florets in soil to see what happens though. They might mature to seed stage.
Potential benefits of microgreens and sprouts (sulforaphane):
1. May help prevent chronic disease
2. Has potent anti-inflammatory effects
3. May have anticancer effects
4. May help inhibit carcinogens
5. Has potent antimicrobial effects
6. Has powerful blood sugar effects
7. May be beneficial in preventing heart disease
8. Has been studied for autism

Hi! But where to buy this microgreens ??
@@ethelrizarri2614 I buy mine at grocery store in produce section. It comes in plastic container. They are crunchy and delicious
@@ethelrizarri2614 or you can buy the seeds soak in water until they start to sprout and rinse them 1 to 2 times a day and eat in 5 days.
@@hollaatthekid1796 ...This is much cheaper and even healthier; glad you said this. Some sprouts are even ready in three days.
Does anyone else feel like Dr. Berg releases a relevant video exactly when a specific subject is on your mind?
I have been eating broccoli microgreens religiously for the past 2 years. Now, I'm tempted to learn how to grow my own.
Yes, same here
Yes i do
where can I buy these sprouts
agreed. its as if Dr. Berg has implanted Neuralink in our brain. 🤣
Yeap, wasnt thinkin of C, but, its happened several times before
As I watch this I am eating a buffalo burger, sauted greens and about a cup of brocolli sprouts. I love them with ACV, lemon juice and EVO. My wife likes them on her salad. I've noticed that I digest them very well. I've been growing them from seed in an Easy Sprout container for about the last 7 weeks (Amazon). We start eating them after about 4 days and they are gone by day 7. I never put them in the fridge. I just take out what I want to eat and let the rest keep growing. Soak, stir and drain twice a day. I think I am going to get another container, so that we have sprouts all week long. Also, I soak them in 158 deg water for 10 minutes to increase the sulforaphane. Dr. Berg's videos have been helpful in the whole process.
Love this. I own Eat Your Greens! Organic Farm in DFW and we appreciate anyone who spreads the word on the nutrients of Microgreens. 👍
Where are you located? I live 35 miles southwest of FW
This couldn't of come at a better time! I just ordered four 5 lb containers to do spouts. My #1 is broccoli sprouts! I should receive them in 2 to 3 days. You have just confirmed everything I wanted to know about these amazing benefits. Thank you!
Glad this video helped you. Enjoy your sprouts.
Couldn’t have
@@LisePlansandJournals Really?
Update? Any health effects you've seen?
You need to do more garden related videos like this. Not really a medical person but it's interesting to hear the benefits of what we grow.
Before there was penicillin, there were sulfur as a medication for common colds and flu.
My Mom was allergic to penicillin. I made sure she ate lots of green veggies and she made it to 96. Many factors but that was one of them.
massive tablets and tasted like brimstone
@@lauchlanguddy1004 Gelcaps available. Had to be taken with food so as not to burn up the gut.
Thats 👍 true.
Yes I'm allergic to sulfar drugs and tetracycline probably because they we're prescribed a lot when I was young.
@@sharonproctor4079 We're all suffering from crappy processed food, driving us to medicate from symptoms resulting from them. and then living with medications that no longer work us or turn against us. Vicious circle I ended by KETO and fasting. 110 pounds later, I feel better in my late 70's than I did when I was in my 40's
I can't thank you enough for putting me wise to potassium deficiency! I switched to one of those " no salt c substitutes, and I feel much better. No more arrhythmia
I grow my own broccoli sprouts, and I love them. It is so easy to use in my food every single day, salad, scrambled eggs, or a "bed" for my meat.
You have helped me so much in my journey, to lose over 100lbs! Over the last 4 years, thanks, with all my heart. Which beats 💓 much better now, lol. Blessings at 69yrs.
I need to do the same.
This is the best physician channel on RUclips that I am aware of. Every video is sleek, professional and gold ✨ mine of valuable information on how to optimize health.
Dr Mandel is same motivational doc is his channel
Thank you!! I can't love this enough!! We need to go back to growing sprouts, it's so easy.
I cured my osteoporoses with broccoli. I had -4,6 in my lower back. A pound a day for 2 years even though a hated it. Result, normal values in my skelett 😀👍🏼💪🏻
Wow
@Catherine Sludds Some of Dr Berg’s videos on osteoporosis may help further.
❤
@Catherine Sludds Welcome.
I've been thinking of growing sprouts again. Used to in the 70s and 80s. Not sure why I stopped as love eating sprouts. Thanks for kick starting me back into growing them. 👍
We eat broccoli all the time but broccoli sprouts aren't something we see on every dinner table. Broccoli sprouts are grabbing wellness world's attention and for good reason. Thanks Dr Berg, great teaching. Informative as always.
Dr. Berg, Thank you for producing these videos. You have helped me more than any doctor ever has. Just started your protocol for low stomach acid and acid reflux and have seen good results and its only been 3 days. I grow microgreens and find them delicious and now I know they are definitely healthy for me. Great info.
Making my 1st broccoli sprouts only 2 days in, can’t wait to try them. Thank you Dr. Berg.
Just wanted to thank you for your work. You always make the right video at the right time. Again thank you so much
You're very welcome! Glad to help!
Glad to see this info getting around more, thanks Doc.
Broccoli sprouts are concentrated sources of sulforaphane, a type of isothiocyanate. Damaging broccoli sprouts - when chewing, chopping, or freezing - triggers an enzymatic reaction in the tiny plants that produces sulforaphane.
You're very welcome!
Dr. Berg's Support Team
I don't understand what you mean by damaging when chewing , chopping ? We don't have to chew it ? Thanks
@@lavieenrose1852 When it's finished growing and your ready to eat you should chew it well to release all the beneficial nutrients.
@@kellyh4052 thank you
@@kellyh4052 What if you blend it in a smoothie? And what if you buy it in powder form?
Thank you dr. Berg. I'm very grateful for everything we learn from you. You mentioned broccoli sprouts in an earlier video, being helpful when you have leaky guts. So I bought them and just started on my first batch.
organic freeze dried are much easier to deal with ive found..they keep their nutrients when freeze dried..i just put a scoop 2/3mg in 70 degree water..let it sit 10 mins then sip..
@@bennystokes8481 thank you, but in my country that's to expensive for my budget and besides that, I like the process of growing them in my kitchen
@@NowIAmAwake unlucky
its cheaper than buying the seeds and waiting..5 dollers for 4 weeks supply...
@@bennystokes8481 fortunately the seeds are rather cheap here.
Thanks Eric to "Spread the Word" so well!
Thanks for doing a vid on this we grow 15 different types of sprouts and micro greens here at Natures Roots ontario canada
Dr. RONDAH Patrick really brought this to light, especially on her Joe Rogan interviews. She mentions a France product which we. Ant get in the US. But luckily BROQ is a product that is the US version which is also produced by this same company. This is what a lot of international studies have been based on.
Expensive
Brilliant, thank you Dr.Berg. I have a large tray of broccoli sprouts (in he spare bedroom) growing in an inch of soil almost at micro green level now. I don't like sprout so much as the little seed cases get a bit slimey and can contain harmful.bacteria. Since it is winter I use a cheap little growlight to extend daylight hours. It working a treat.....loads of salad just in one 12" x 1 8" tray.
I am always looking forward to your video. Educational and informative.
I believe most doctors don't know what they're talking about, but you're the first who I felt knows and have actual passion for the field
I learned about it from one of your other videos and then kept researching. It is supposed to prevent and remove brain plaques. Ever since I grow my own broccoli sprouts and use them in my vegetable smoothies.
Kindly tell how to grow broccoli sprouts ?
@@nazeergaad8053 check YT videos. Grow them in jars or buy special jars or plant in trays
@@carla89cc Thanks
I'm curious to know.. what else do your smoothies consist of? Thanks
@Nazeer Gaad I grow mine on special sprouting trays on sprouting paper and seed starter soil. Much better results than jars. If I find the video, I'll post.
Dr Berg you are always on point! So nice to hear a doctor who understands something about soil and plant health.. super important for healthy crops which make healthy people!
Thank you doctor for your nice work and all the knowledge you let us access. Have a nice day sir!
Another Excellent video from Dr Berg, this one on the benefits of Brocolli Sprouts and micro greens; strong anti-cancer and anti allergens properties; over 100x the benefit of the adult plant. I shall add it to my grocery list straight away !! Thks Dr Berg.
I always added sprouts and tuna to Mac and cheese when my kids were growing up... sprinkling them on top. The kids loved them.
I’ve been taking Broccomax for a couple of years to add sulforaphane to my diet. No idea if it’s helpful, but the amount of studies on this do suggest it’s helpful and beneficial.
Be careful w those broccoli supplements, make sure it's a reputable one bc when they were independently tested the majority didn't have what they were stated to have.
Good stuff! I put a bunch of seeds in my food storage. They last forever and all you need is water and a mason jar to grow them any time of year. 1-2 tbsp fills the whole jar in about 5 days.
Where did you get the seeds?
May ALLAH ALMIGHTY protect you always from any harm. Its an impression worldwide that who ever tries to do any unconventional thing against CANCER, is at risk of wrath of Multi billion dollar anti cancer pharmaceutical industry.
You are doing a noble work Doc.

My pleasure! Glad to help!
Dr Berg thank you for learning us so many useful informations you help me very much 🙏god bless you 🌺
A few days ago we bought Brocolli, Alfalfa, Radish & Rucola sprouts! YUM! 👍🏻
Wonderful!
Nice discussion, thank you. I’ve been alerted to this the past few days, and it seems very positive. I bought some broccoli sprouts today, rinsed before eating of course. Some collards, Brussels sprouts, radishes. 🍃
best review on nutritional foods ive seen, thank you dr. berg.
Thank you Dr. Erick, I always encourage my family, and friends watch your vids! I really thank God for you!
Dr Berg, thanks for again another interesting video 👌🏽👌🏽 This can really affect peoples lives positively. Advice we never would get from our doctor because mostly they dont care. Greetings from Netherlands🇱🇺
Doctors here in the Netherlands are so useless in my experience. Thankfully we got Dr Eric to save us.
I now sprout my own broccoli sprouts. Only one store in my area even carries it, and their usually out. It's SO much cheaper to sprout your own and cheaper too!
I've had those seeds sleeping on my counter for the last few months....time to wake them up!!!thank you Mr Berg 💞🌱🌱🌱
I totally get what Dr. berg is trying to say. Thank you sir for trying to help people in these trying times.
No problem. Happy to share information that can help you all!
Oh and one more vitally important thing when buying seed. Make sure they are Broccolli Calabrese and not Broccili Raab which is turnip I think. It is completely different and not real broccoli. Here in UK many sellers do not make that diistionc tion.
Broccoli Raab is very cheap so that can be the 'bell ringer' !
Just purchased some Broccoli sprout seeds and the growing jars.
Haven't grown any yet.
Thank you for your video on the benefits of consuming Broccoli sprouts.
No problem. Stay safe and healthy!
Broccoli sprouts are amazing. You can eat them on and in everything. I ate a lot of these while I was fighting breast cancer. I grow them use organic seeds. ♥
Do you think they helped?
@@sensimania Yes I sure do, the tumor shrank from 6.2 cm to 1 cm using the sprouts along with chemo. They said they were surprised how small it got! I am growing another batch of the sprouts right now. I use organic seeds in a wide mouth quart jar. cm= centimeters
Yes. The only thing I would advise is, that if you have thyroid issues you may want to limit the amount of the sprouts that you eat. They would be a good way to avoid getting cancer, very powerful and full of nutrients.
💜
@@lisat9802 why if thyroid issues? I have hashimotos
Dear Dr. Berg, thank you for daily updates on improving our diet.
It would help tremendously if you turned up the gain on you mic. Or something to increase volume. No matter what i do i can barely hear you. I find you channel very helpful Thank you.
Thanks a lot, Dr. Berg. i regularly watch your videos. thanks for helping lot of people around the world. Please make a video on Nicotinamide Mononucleotide. Best Regards.
Could some of his videos on b3 answer your question?
I think you are so helpful. I had some broccoli sprouts the other day they go really well with a salad. Thank you
This is very interesting.. Few hours ago while I was watering my microgreen mix I had some questions about seeds vs sprouts. And there we have this video!! Thanks Dr.B.
Most welcome! Glad you found the video helpful.

@@Drberg It has been about time!😅
Curious about this as well.
First time I saw your video about micro greens. I immediately started growing my own as a hobby.
Now my mother is eating them. My daughter is eating them.
Thank you so much.
What do you think about sea-moss?
Glad to hear someone else finally talk about this. Dr. Rhonda patrick discussed this a while back. Sulpohorane and Prostaphane cured my H Pylori infection.
How much broccoli did you eat a day to cure H pylori?
Your fanatic follower from Nigeria.
You are very kind and knowledgeable. My only problem is some of the nutrients, minerals and other phytochemicals and phytonutrients you are recommending in your info-rich videos are not easily obtainable in my country most especially my region, North Western Nigeria.
Same here in our place in Philippines. You can fine in the city but living in the country side is different thing. Some can be bought through online but sometimes you end up buying fake products
I'd think it is quite easy to grow broccoli sprouts from seeds, especially in a warm climate with good soils such as in Nigeria? Or are seeds not available for purchase?
@@martian9999 I don't know exactly but I will try sourcing the seeds and I may need your assistance on how to grow it if you are interested.
@@sunusiadamu5802 plenty of tutorials on RUclips! But all you need is some moist soul, the seeds and some improvised equipment, and a few days of patience.
@@sunusiadamu5802 I'd imagine you could get wonderful benefits from whatever seeds locally you have available. Any seeds can be sprouted.
Am I the only one missing the white board and squeaky markers? The click of the pen cap; the good old days!
I Like the Idea that you don't need to eat as much. By The Way I have been applying your advice into my work out program and I am very happy with the results. I can see where we have to be dedicated towards overriding bad eating habits especially carbs and sugar. I have found that fasting 2 to 3 hours longer in the morning along with working out at that time extremely effective. Thanks Doc c];-)
Been sprouting broccoli for years, thanks to Dr. Rhonda.
It is so easy to grow your own. Very epensive at the market. I use a baker's sieve and organic heritage seeds. Takes 4 days to get them going, and then let them grow. Ive done them in soil as well. Lovely in salads, on sandwiches -- or just as is. Rhonda Patrick built her career on the study of sulforophane.
Thanks for sharing!
I've just grown mine in a jar, rinsing then twice a day, per someone else's video instructions. How do you grow in soil? Are there any other ways?
@@se5594 just use a shallow tray w a layer of soil.
@@Drberg Dr. Berg, please tell us about MSM and is it suitable for all patients?
Yes Dr Berg ..since I had cancer I juice my sprouts..I eat my sprouts and broccoli and cauliflower and cabbage etc...my last check up I had no inflammation and perfect blood work...I had non Hodgkin's lymphoma and it said dont eat saurkraut ..is that. True I love saurkraut..
Just started eating it daily and now growing my own.
I bought my sprouting set and my broccoli seeds a couple months ago..haven't started yet but this has given me the push to do so.
Hi Dr Berg, im 36 and got a colon cancer with important metastasis in the liver (80% of the liver metastasized). Im very interested in your recommendation in fasting, but I was wondering if your best strategy reommendation of fasting is compatible with liver with mestastasis? Thanks for the help, Gui
Growing vegetable sprouts in aqiponics with red lighs at night and sunlight in the daylight hour's seems to have more nutrients in what I tested year's ago. Excellent vids. Can't beat keto . and fermentation vegetables . And hanging your beef longer to mature and break down the muscle.
Has there been any more studies into Moringa and sulphorphane?
As a sri lankan (pharmacist) extremely appreciate your effort sir.👍.
Fun fact: according to Dr Rhonda Patrick, heating your broccoli sprouts with 158(F) water for 10 minutes dramatically increases bioavailability of sulforaphane.
Thanks! Love Dr. Rhonda Patrick!
I have a daily bowl of blue zone minestrone soup and put broccoli sprouts in the soup when it's cooled to 160, 10 minutes before eating. It's an easy way to consume them and get the most out of the sprouts. I enjoy them in my soup.
@@HearTheTrumpetsSound sounds great, I'm assuming I can find the recipe online..

Came across your videos a few weeks ago, very informative.
Welcome to the discussion but beware of Telegram Scammers.
Back in 1983 we grew sprouts in a Frisbee. Bit of soil, seeds, water, toothpicks, cover in Saran wrap
I’ve never heard of farmers growing micro greens in actual soil. Coco coir or some other substrate, yes, but not soil. I grow sprouts in jars and it’s so easy!
Wow what timing... I been growing sprouts for the last 2 weeks and putting them on everything! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
I have 11 cups of veggies daily, learning from the Dr.
New information for me as a microgreens grower! Very interesting doctor Berg. Thank you so much also your clear explanation! If there will come more would be very happy to know. And use for my clients.
i've been growing them in a mason jar, theres a screen lid you can buy and makes them really easy to grow!
Screen lid ? How does that work ?
The screen replaces the little disc part of the lid. Just buy a little screen material from the hardware store and cut it to fit. Or you can use gauze. Just put the gauze over the mouth of the jar and either screw the lid on to hold it down, or use a rubber band.
@@gigiwills7851 Thank you very much for this tip !
DR Berg It seems that Hopkins University did get the patent for sulforaphane because it has an agreement with the company Brassica tea in Baltimore to produce green tea with broccoli extract. The packaging of this shows you the label that is under the patent Hopkings University. Maybe you don't want to advertise this product, however I ask you to please make a comment about this tea. It is not so easy to make broccoli sprouts at home. Please Please again. make a comment about brassica tea. It ease for many people to get it from amazon
A good tip now to get free seeds for the future:
Grow one or two broccoli in your garden and et them flower (pollinators love those flowers) then wait for the seeds to form. Put a bag over and tie it on with an elastic band. You will be shocked by your amazing harvest.
Any chance that I can do this with the organic broccoli I buy at the store ?
@@dreamweaver8210 I don't know. Carrot and celery re-grow I know that. Basically, you are buying the flower head aren't you? The carrot and celery re-grow from the chopped off root end. I am guessing you would need the comlete broccoli, roots and all. Worth sticking a couple of florets in soil to see what happens though. They might mature to seed stage.
@@lynnpurfield9430 I'll try that with the florets. Thank you for the information.
@@dreamweaver8210 worth a try but I am guessing that the stalk will rot rather than produce roots. Let me know 😁
@@dreamweaver8210 ooo, but if you want to get ahead you could find some big starts at a nursery.
