Sprouts are packed with all kinds of nutrition in Sprouts are packed with all kinds of nutrition in a very small serving size. This is because the concentration of nutrients is much higher in sprout form when compared to the mature plants they become.⁠ ⁠ As a result of this concentration, you don’t have to eat a lot of them to get the benefits—in fact, in many cases sprouts will have hundreds of times the nutrition that you’ll get by eating a higher-calorie, fully developed plant!⁠ ⁠ Sprouts can help keep you healthy, protect you from free radical damage, and battle nutrient deficiencies.⁠ ⁠ #lexislunch #healthyfood #healthylifestyle #food #healthy #foodporn #foodie #fitness #vegan #healthyeating #foodphotography #health #foodblogger #yummy
