They are one of very few edible plants that can be grown with limited exposure to the sun, which is why sprouting should be an important part your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.survival-spot.com\/survival-blog\/\">survival<\/a> strategy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sprouts are a living food.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Plant based foods in their original and uncooked form are what we call a \u201cliving\u201d or \u201craw\u201d food. Once any food has been cooked or heated, it loses essential vitamins and nutrients and becomes a dead food. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.living-foods.com\/faq.html\">Living foods<\/a> still contain all the life giving nutrients (enzymes, oxygen, vitamins, nutrients and chlorella) that are absolutely vital to the proper maintenance of the human body.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Sprouting at home can help improve your health and provide fresh food during emergencies. In this booklet we will teach you everything you need to know about preparing, purchasing, growing and harvesting a year round organic <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B0015ZNN9Y\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B0015ZNN9Y&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=surspoblo-20&amp;linkId=TOCGIE6FRNXBBZHR\">sprout garden<\/a> right in your own kitchen.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Nutritious<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Ounce for ounce sprouts are one of the most nutritious foods you can eat. According to Sproutpeople.com and Wikipedia sprouts contain:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<li>Vitamins A, B, C, D, E, and K,<\/li>\n<li>Calcium, Iron, Potassium, Zinc, Chlorophyll, Phosphorus, Niacin, Magnesium, Pantothenic Acid<\/li>\n<li>Trace Elements<\/li>\n<li>All amino acids<\/li>\n<li>Protein: up to 35%\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Sprouts are alkalizing to the body<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nMost modern diets are incredibly acidic, which leads to weak bone, fatigue, weight gain and an out of balance digestive system. Eating alkalizing foods like sprouts help to balance the diet and lead to better overall health.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Sprouting helps your digestive system<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nSprouts help to neutralize something called <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Phytic_acid\" class=\"broken_link\">phytic acid<\/a>, an acid in your body that binds with minerals like calcium, iron, copper, zinc and magnesium. When phytic acid is bonded to those nutrients your body is unable to absorb them. Sprouts will allow you to absorb these nutrients better, which help nutrient absorption from any food that you eat.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Sprouts also help to neutralize <a href=\"http:\/\/www.answers.com\/topic\/enzyme-inhibition\" class=\"broken_link\">enzyme inhibitors<\/a>, allowing healthy enzymes to operate. Adding them to your regular diet can also help with the breakdown of complex carbohydrates and sugars and turn them into glucose molecules making them easier for your body to digest. It has been suggested that sprouts even deactivate a carcinogen found in grains call \u201caflotoxins\u201d.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>*Under certain conditions food borne illnesses can occur during the sprouting process. Although this is somewhat rare (like with raw milk) since sprouts are grown in moist, warm conditions bacterial growth can occur. However most sprouting seeds are tested for bacteria and as long you use uncontaminated seeds and use clean equipment and water and refrigerate your sprouts the risk of bacteria is almost 0.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>More on Sprouting Nutrition<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.living-foods.com\/articles\/sprouts.html\" class=\"broken_link\">http:\/\/www.living-foods.com\/articles\/sprouts.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Nutritious<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B000NY9QLC\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B000NY9QLC&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=surspoblo-20&amp;linkId=PWFCV6ZBLDYE65BD\" class=\"broken_link\">Sprouting kits and seeds<\/a> are very affordable, particularly if you obtain seed from a farm store and buy in bulk. Some stores have 20 lbs of seeds for about 20 dollars; remember that a few tablespoons can fill up an entire jar with sprouts. A small package of live sprouts can cost 5 dollars or more at the grocery store.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Simple<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nGrowing your own sprouts requires very minimal effort to get started. It&#8217;s easy, quick and fun. Get the kids involved and make it part of your routine. With a few minutes a day for 3-5 days you have a week or more worth of sprouts. See easy how growing your own sprouts can be.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Eco Friendly<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nWhen you sprout, or grow anything yourself, you are helping the environment by reducing the amount of energy and thereby reducing the amount of carbon emissions that are needed to bring food to your table.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Survival<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Sprouts are a great survival food.

Some people swear by the bag method, saying that it has better air circulation and drainage than other methods, which allows for high yields and better sprouts. Some debate exists about bag sprouting however; some have suggested mold is more common with the bag method. Since sprouting bags are very affordable and easy to transport, they are a great option.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B0014ZNIRW\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B0014ZNIRW&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=surspoblo-20&amp;linkId=UE73FW4VNIVO77ZF\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;ASIN=B0014ZNIRW&amp;Format=_SL250_&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;WS=1&amp;tag=surspoblo-20\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"http:\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=surspoblo-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B0014ZNIRW\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Sprouting Tray<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">There are several different types of sprouting trays available like the popular Sproutmaster and the Sprout Garden.

Make sure that you use purified water, as contaminates from water can be absorbed into the seeds and in turn pass it on to you. Also many states use chlorine and fluoride in the public water, water with these chemicals should be avoided if possible.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Drain<\/strong> <\/span>\u2013 The next day once your seeds have had time to absorb the much needed water you will need to drain the jar. Use your cheesecloth or covering here so that you can drain the water and keep all your seeds.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Store Away From Light<\/strong><\/span> \u2013 Set your jar or cloth away from light in a warm place. A popular option is to place the jar in a kitchen cabinet. For proper airflow and drainage you jar should be place angling down like pictured. Some people say to store your jar upside down but this is a mistake because you will be covering your lid, blocking airflow and reducing the space your seeds have to grow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Rinse, Rinse, Rinse<\/strong><\/span> \u2013 Everyday you will need to rinse your seeds, drain them and put them back into the angled position. Rinsing your seeds 2-3 times a day is recommended for most types of seeds. By the 3-5 day your sprouts should be ready for the next step.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #008000;\">Put out in the sun<\/span> <\/strong>&#8211; The final step to your sprouts is exposing them to sun, this will allow them to absorb chlorophyll which will add the green color to your sprouts as well as help your sprouts develop nutrients. Most seeds only require a few hours of sun exposure, but it will vary depending on what seed you are using.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #008000;\">Harvest and Enjoy<\/span> <\/strong>\u2013 A common question is how do I know when my sprouts are done?
