The Benefits of Broccoli Sprouts

We all know broccoli is good for us- but have you ever eaten broccoli sprouts? Have you even heard of them? Broccoli sprouts are germinated seeds of broccoli. They have a mild flavor and look similar to alfalfa sprouts. These sprouts contain a highly concentrated number of vitamins and nutrients (often 10-100 times more than fully grown broccoli heads!)

Health benefits include:

  • Reducing the bad cholesterol in our bodies, while promoting the good cholesterol
  • May improve cardiovascular health by decreasing inflammation and increasing heart, artery and kidney function
  • May reduce the inflammation associated with asthma and nasal allergies
  • May protect the eyes from damage by chemical carcinogens and ultraviolet light
  • May even help the body fight cancer

These sprouts may be small but they are mighty!
