Review:

a must for every kitchen and a bonus for all who crave a healthy diet --David Bellamy

From the Author:

1. A handbook for the ultimate 21st Century superfood.
2 Years ago, while suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome, I discovered the healing powers of raw beansprouts and have been fascinated by them ever since. Beansprouts have the highest dynamic value of any food and all the nutrients needed to keep us in perfect health. In my book I have tried to outline the unique benefits of eating beansprouts. Despite all our advances in food processing and analysis, nature still does it a lot better.

When a seed sprouts, something very special happens. The seed, which is almost in a state of suspended animation, all of a sudden begins a metamorphosis. The seed becomes a sprout with an incredibly high metabolic rate which will never again be achieved during the plant’s life time. In pure food terms, seeds are not particularly easy to digest whereas sprouts are easy to digest and many times more nutritious than the seed they have just come from. The transition between seed and sprout is one of Nature’s greatest miracles. Just how this is achieved is all explained in the book.

Your attitude towards food will be changed for life.

Also covered is wheatgrass with an extensive recipe section at the back.
