You simply soak seeds 8 hours, rinse 3 times daily, and in 3 to 5 days enjoy your own fresh, live, wholesome sprouts. Sprouts are some of the most nutritious foods available, low in calories, and are always "in season". Sprouts are a good source of chlorophyll, and contain the enzymes necessary for proper digestion and assimilation of food nutrients. They are one of the highest sources of natural fiber. As seeds begin to sprout, nutritional value multiples. The B-complex content in germinated wheat increases 600 percent in the 1st 72 hours. Vit E content is tripled and vit C increases sixfold. Sprouts are also higher in minerals than their un-germinated counter parts, but are generally low in sodium and carbohydrates.

Our family finds that when we're away from home and the fresh picked vegetables of our garden, sprouts are an easy way to maintain adequate nutrition. The sprouter is small and easy to take along on camping or touring trips, and certainly adds to the quality of the vacation. We also find our sprouts indispensable during the winter lack of fresh picked garden produce. Stock # 473 Price $15.00
