how I eat 100g of broccoli sprouts every day.

Hey guys,

Thanks for the amazing response with my last broccoli sprouts video; I decide to make a Part 2! Today, we're specifically focusing on how to eat a lot (100g) of broccoli sprouts per day.

This is seriously next-level self-care. I've been doing this consistently and feel pretty darn great--especially in my head (both in terms of mental clarity and happiness).

Hope you enjoy! 🥦🌱✨

Since filming this, I've started making broccoli sprout SLAW! Basically coleslaw with sprouts instead of cabbage. :) yumnmm
What's your favorite (or craziest) sprout recipe??

[melissaspurlock]

Great ideas - I love spring rolls! You can add 1tsp of citric acid powder per quart jar when soaking and rinsing to keep sprouts from developing mold, etc.

I've been sprouting broccoli for a few years now and I've changed my method a few times. I use the 32-ounce wide-mouth Mason jars rinsing twice a day. I saw a youtube video the other day that mentioned a study which determined the sulforaphane level peaks at 48-hours of sprouting. At that point I harvest them and freeze them in a zip lock freezer bag. I've formulated a new smoothie using about 30 grams of the sprouts mixing in a peeled garlic clove, small wedge of ginger, a sliced up whole lemon, 10 or so spirella and carella tablets, acai or blueberrys with the 5-calorie cranberry juice. I strain out the heavy pulp and drink it on up with a straw because the lemon has a tendency to eat away at the enamel of your teeth.

If you're worried about contamination, try growing microgreens. It only takes about 10 days, and you can grow them without soil if you want.

hope your channel will grow soon! you make very high-quality content!

I put the sprouts in and on all food. I put on top of omelets, on sandwiches, in smoothies. I grow the organic seeds in wide mouth quart jars. I ate a lot of them for months and months during treatment for cancer. I swear they helped to shrink the tumor from 6.5 cm all the way down to 1cm. I ate them while going through chemo treatment. I recently showed a good friend how to grow them. She is super excited about her first harvest.

The biggest "No-No" when growing Sprouts or Microgreens is using CHLORINATED WATER .Always best to use FILTERED WATER for the entire process. There are a number of great channels on YouTube that show how to grow sprouts. Make sure they mention the type of water to use during the process and why it's important. You did a great job with speaking to the camera, giving great ideas for different ways to enjoy the broccoli sprouts and the recipes look yummy. Wishing you continued success with your Channel

I just ordered a kit to grow my own broccoli sprouts. Two large jars with mesh lids, a stand and a bag of seeds. It costs $5 for about 50 grams of these where I live.

[jenniferdowell]

love this i have been using sprouts on and off! you reminded me to get sprouting. I love a seaweed wrap with tahini and roasted red pepper and chickpea tuna with tons of sprouts!

[VatoRob]

Important note: The sprouts need to be crushed. The fiber needs to be broken down so that sulforaphane is getting build. 5-10 minutes after crushin you can eat or drink it. I do 50GR smoothie 3 times per week in just 200 ml water. Gulp it. Done. Sry, if you said that. didnt listen properly then.

In the US, at least in my area, store bought sprouts very expensive. Especially in large quantities. If some people can afford it, great. Otherwise, I follow Rhonda Patrick, who first introduced broccoli sprouts to many of us. And she grows hers from seeds too.

[CaptainMyCaptain]

Oh my God ever since I was a teenager one of my most favorite foods was pita hummus, broccoli sprouts, and a bit of Taziki sauce with feta cheese. Of course I don’t eat meat or dairy anymore so nowadays, so I just have pita hummus and broccoli sprouts you should try it because it’s seriously one of my favorite foods ever..

And if you want to really go all out, I do it this way sometimes also: Pita, hummus, cucumber, pickled red onions, (homemade, this is actually really important for the onions; you can make them overnight, but store-bought will not work yuck!), katamala olives, broccoli sprouts, artichoke hearts (optional), Feta (for those who eat cheese). So good. ❤
But really, one of the things I find myself eating almost daily is just pita, Hummus, broccoli sprouts, and a bit of tzatziki . I’ve been eating this for 15 years and I still love it.

I make my sprouts at home. To produce enough broccoli sprouts to have a constant, 100g amount daily would be enormous.

[ameliaislandmicrogreens]

I agree with you about the risk of growing sprouts at home. We have found that by growing broccoli as microgreens instead is not only EASIER, but also they are much more nutrient dense! By sowing the seeds in coco coir, you do not have to go through the process of rinsing multiple times daily and still worrying about bacterial growth.

Another thing to pay attention to is to get good quality seeds that have been tested for pathogens. Get them from a trusted source and make sure you handle them with clean hands and containers. You are eating so close to the seed that having quality seeds is a MUST!

Thanks for all the great recipe ideas... my favorite is the summer roll!

Stay awesome, Connor at Amelia Island Microgreens

[CigdemS]

Thank you for sharing all the resources! I also am in the process of increasing my sprouts to everything! We grow our sprouts at home. I’ve had some smelly ones, so I threw away those batches, but the key is rinsing them very often. I also followed some vlogs’ recommendations of rinsing them with vinegar at first, but I may have over soaked them in vinegar several times, so now I have great batches.
I also follow Dr. Rhonda Patrick, she always backs her vlogs with research.
Btw, your spring rolls look delicious!! ❤

[rawmilkmike]

Wow, love your ideas. I stopped juicing several years ago. And eliminated sandwiches before that. Alternative bread can be difficult. I used gluten-free flour as a transition to eliminate the grains. 1:05

[williamdevonshire]

i eat the sprouts i grow and because im worries about contamination i cook them in water at 140f on my induction cooker, then i blend that and make it into a smoothy.

brocoli sprouts arent the most appetizing taste, so so far ive added stevia, chocolate protein powder and peanut butter

[codeyorgill]

The Sprouts Video!! Been looking forward to this! Loved the aesthetics of this one :)

[ZoneTwelveOnline]

You are nice to eat broccoli sprouts

Walnut oil or avacodo oil with a dash of apple cider vinegar and soy sauce makes for a great home made dressing.

[ronaleck]

Excellent food coach you are, I going make, or sprout a lot, so may, see my families and friebds, reach, a healthier space in life, seen something on this before a clear jar and dark place to spout them, keep awesome
