I have been sprouting my own broccoli sprouts seeds at home for the past couple of months. The process is simple and much more economical than purchasing them from the store (my grocery store charges $3 per pint). With my home growing method, I’m able to consume a cup of fresh broccoli sprouts every day in my huge bucket salad. (I call my salad my bucket salad because it’s enormous lol.)
I purchase the sprouting seeds from amazon (search “non gmo broccoli sprouting seeds”) and I follow the directions in the video from Jason Smith. He is a farmer with a RUclips channel. He has a video that taught me how.
@@aacc2216 sprouting is simple. soak some seeds in a glass jar (half a cup or less).overnight. rinse the next morning a couple of times, and drain all the water. turn the jar on its side and cover with towel. rinse twice a day. three to four days later they are ready the enjoy. remove from jar and refrigerate. dense nutrition at home. goodbye pharmaceuticals. hello energy and vibrant health

Great no nonsense information. Lost 15lbs in two months and stopped progression of my diabetics. Fasting, int. Fasting, portion control, lots of veggeis, very little fruit, and of course no carbs. Thanks to your knowledge based videos & encouragements!
Dr. Eric Berg's knowledge is very thorough and scientific. He has answers for just about any health issues we have. We have been growing our own garden for years all organic and now our own sprouts. Its so easy, I had been eating sprouts for about 2 weeks, my stomach felt so good. Then I went on a two week vaca and didn't have access to sprouts & got out of the routine and felt yuck again. Thank you Dr. Berg
Great Post!! I lived on a sailboat for 8 years. I cruised through the Bahamas all the time. It was surprising just how few vegetables were available. That's when I learned about sprouting. I had trays of sprouts growing all the time. That was over 20 years ago. I still sprout today as part of my regular diet.
May I ask how many you ate in a day? Can you give me say, in cups? I'm trying to figure out how to enhance Keto and OMAD by replacing some of my required 7 cups of leafy greens per day, with home grown sprouts. TIA
Everything I've learned from Dr.Berg has made a huge difference in my health.. I no longer have foot knee and hip pain etc etc.. I went 6 years or more extreme foot pain.. I'm pain Free after 2 months of following Dr Berg.. amazing info
Has sprouted for the last 5 to 6 years. they taste fantastic on top of everything and in smoothies. . Love, broccoli, sunflower, lucerne, onion, beetroot, pink cabbage sprout etc etc Huge Thx for all your Great videoes !!!!
Thank you I am a retired nurse sick of medicines so I went Holistic. My husband had Psoriasis very versatile bad Empty gut syndrome 😢 with studying research diet change radically his skin is beautiful 😊 I put coconut oil mixed with organic castor oil. 😊 God bless you 🙏❤ I subscribed 🙏 😊
Dr Berg, I am so very thankful to you for all your hard work and the info you provide. I've recommended you to everyone I talk with. You're amazing, keep up the fantastic videos! I always learn so much. 😊
Dr. Berg, I've been trying to find the answer to this: What would the equivalent be for eating sprouts and microgreens in terms of cups per day to match 7 cups of leafy greens?
There are any bacteria like e coli or other present in sprouts? Please tell about them if these are harmful for or body. And tell me about how to consume sprouts. Raw or boiled which is batter?
This is a great vedio. Very informative and helpful. Dr. Berg helped me to get all micronutrients through food. Who needs supplements when you can get massive nutrition through food?
Pedro Llopis Do you smoke? Smoking affects absorption of vitamins C. Otherwise you don't need to take supplements cause vitamin c or absorbic acid is one of the easiest vitamins consumed through food. A glass of orange juice, lemon juice, kiwifruit, berries and many other fruits n veggies and milk are all good sources of vitamin C.
Hi Dr Eric,how much protein in 100 gram sprouted mung bean and also is it okay to eat raw should i roast or boil the sprouts please reply back thank you.
Great post! Is it possible for you to let us know where we can get that kind of detailed information? These % are very interesting! Please i'd appreciate to know how to get these facts! Thank you!
I grow sprouts, Broccoli in particular. They're great in salads, in sandwiches, etc. They are very easy to grow. Oh! They contain huge amounts of Glutathione, much more than an adult plant :-)
I have some Mason Jars with Special tops that have a screen in them... You can usually buy them at a health food store. I put a Tablespoon of seeds into the 1 L jar and fill it about half, with water. Let that sit for about 8 hours to hydrate the seeds, then (with the lids on) drain that water and rinse the seeds w/more water, Drain and let sit for another 8 hours. Make sure the seeds are drained enough... I turn my jars upside - down for a few minutes to make sure there is no free-standing water in the jar. Do it again, before you go to bed and again when you wake up. You have to keep the seeds moist but Not water-logged... Continue the procedure until your seeds have sprouted and have grown to the size you want... They will look like Alfalfa sprouts, so I mark the jars with a label that reminds me what is in which jar... Obviously, I make several types of sprouts... Hope it works for you... Oh! There are several videos on sprouting seeds, in RUclips... :-) Oh! If the Seeds are not Organic - they won't sprout...
DStray Cat THANKS! :) I have just started to sprout some lentils and chickpeas. I will try to find those organic broccoli seeds (I live in Spain)! Real whole food is the real medicine! Best wishes for you and your loved ones!
I grew my first batch and the sprouts are drying at the moment. I got organic broccoli sprouts. The seeds are very tiny and they are from France. I live in Finland. The tase is very strong with a hint of horseraddish. This being my first time sprouting I can´t help but wonder is the batch bad or do sprouts from differant seeds taste so dif? I got some sprouts at the store and they seemed way milder in taste. My sprouts are not completly green, could this explain the strong taste?The taste is´nt bad as I like stronger flavors. Some ppl say that they don´t have to turn green and some say that turning green means more nutrition? Would love your feed back DStray Cat. Dr. Berg has been great. I actually contacted his ppl several yrs ago and they really helped me out even though I did´nt buy anything from them. I was unimployed at the time. Still am. I love the docs videos.
Thanks for making a video on sprouts.....But can we replace them with the daily veggies which you recommended or keep stressing while doing intermediate fasting keto
I've grown my own from organic seeds and got rashes all over my hands. I'm not allergic to regular broccoli, unsure why I would have such a reaction to the sprouts?!! I want to continue eating them despite the allergic reaction, any feedback would be appreciated
Will you get the same benefits from frozen broccoli sprouts as fresh, I purchase them at the grocery store and would like to freeze to save on shelf life and ease of use making smoothies. Please advise?
Sir plz make a video on citrus fruits...whether citrus should be consumed for ulcer healing or to be avoided...n how citrus being acidic gets converted into alkaline in our bodysysstem...
May I know the impact of sprouting to carb level?. Does carb level goes down when green gram, chickpea or cowpea being sprouted?. If yes, how much?. Pls help.
Dearest Dr. Berg, I'm trying to figure out how to enhance Keto and OMAD by replacing some of my required 7 cups of leafy greens per day, with home grown sprouts. Can you help me know how many ounces of sprouts and microgreens will replace how many ounces of leafy greens? I'm thinking that it won't be ounce for ounce, as the sprouts are so much more nutritionally dense.
Great video, Thank you. I have a question. Some people recommend to put them on dark area. I was wondering why. I put my on window and they sprouts fast. .

Hi Dr. Berg. I've been growing my own broccoli sprouts for the last month using Food To Live Organic seeds. I must be doing something wrong because they don't taste spicy. I usually harvest the sprouts after Day 6. Do you have any advice? Thank you!
Dr. Berg, wouldn't the benefits of sprouting carry on to grains? I cannot find research regarding this and I just hate pricking myself to test blood insulin to find out. Could it be that the reason grains cause insulin havoc in our bodies is because in the last century instant gratification and convenience has influenced how we eat, cook, and store our foods? Back in the day, our grandparents soaked, sprouted, and fermented just about everything. Refrigerators have made fermenting pretty much obsolete in many homes, and processed foods have taken the place of sprouting our seeds and grains -we buy whatever is convenient and cheap (enriched all purpose flour, or worse -store bought cupcakes). We want it cheap too. So, if there is a bag of enriched wheat flour for $2 and organic non gmo sprouted spelt flour for $7, we'll pick the wheat flour because the end-tasting result is very similar. Or, we simply buy the $1 pre-sliced bread! Why not? Especially, when the FDA doesn't tell us these things are killing us slowly! Anybody found research on this?
What about nuts? How do you sprout almonds, for example, or Brazil nuts? I understand about the broccoli-get the seeds from amazon--but you say sprout nuts too? How?
I have been wanting to sprouts seeds and got the set up to do it, but I saw some post about how you should cook your sprouts before eating, is this for sprouts that are bought in the store, or for both home grown organic sprouts and store sprouts? Curious to see if everyone is eating them raw or cooking them in boiling water.
In India we also consume few more sprouts Named 'Moong and Matki', eating seeds grows uric acid level but not sure if sprouting it change any effects on our body. Can anyone guide me?

Is sprouting reduces carbs content??
I’ve heard that sprouted bread doesn’t spike the insulin so it’s better then flour bread. Is it true?
What sprouts may we eat on keto? And do they have less carbs than the actual vegetable ?
This is a great vedio. Very informative and helpful. Dr. Berg helped me to get all micronutrients through food. Who needs supplements when you can get massive nutrition through food?
Mohammed Qadeer Hi! I I am vitamin C deficient and I am now taking supplements :(. My doctor thinks I cannot absorb it
Pedro Llopis Do you smoke? Smoking affects absorption of vitamins C. Otherwise you don't need to take supplements cause vitamin c or absorbic acid is one of the easiest vitamins consumed through food. A glass of orange juice, lemon juice, kiwifruit, berries and many other fruits n veggies and milk are all good sources of vitamin C.
Mohammed Qadeer I don't smoke and I follow a plant-based diet... I do not understand this iron deficiency... I usually eat those foods
Do you drink coffee a lot? Just asking cause caffeine inhibits vitamin c absorption.
Mohammed Qadeer It's okay for your questions! You're just trying to help. I feel thankful. I don't drink coffee nor tea. Only water and vegetable milk
Are sprouts good to have on Keto??
oh god,yes !!!!

As they are high on protein do u suggest to take them after a workout along with whey
Sir i m very much impressed the way you explain all the things in a very simpler way.Why dont you write a book on all your youtube topics?
But Dr. Berg & Team, what do you define as a serving of sprouts (weight in grams) to acquire a beneficial amount of the nutrients you elaborated?
The first link with a video on how to do your sprouts at home is not available anymore ...
Yeah, I just found that out as well. RUclips must be censoring it.
The Google review link is misdirected.
Does this include beans, etc.
What about bean sprouts Dr Berg?
Dr. Are fenugreek sprouts allowed in keto ?
What about mung bean sprouts? Are they keto?
Do you have a source for seeds that are non GMO and untreated with systemic pesticides?
