Product description:
What Is Broccoli Sprout Powder?
Everyone knows what a broccoli is as well as the fact that it’s an exceedingly healthy vegetable. However, there is actually a healthier and more nutritious form of broccoli, which is the sprouts of its seeds. They are like a concentrate of all good things contained in the vegetable and are easier to digest at the same time.
The problem is that sprouting broccoli seeds is a complicated process and the tiny greens only last for a couple of days. Therefore, in order to enjoy their benefits regularly, you’ll have to set up a non-stop sprouting production, which is time-consuming and requires a bit too much effort.
Broccoli Sprout Powder from Food To Live is a simple solution to this problem. This product is made of top-quality sprouted broccoli seeds that are freeze-dried and pulverized using advanced technology. We do our best to ensure that the powder retains as many nutrients as possible so that you can make your foods healthier by adding it to the recipes.
How to Use Broccoli Seeds
Broccoli sprouting seeds are available online and anyone can get them. Note that dried seeds aren’t edible and shouldn’t be used as a spice. You can get some broccoli seed oil as a substitute for other cooking oils as it’s high in nutrients, but this product is quite rare and there are better alternatives to it.
Therefore, the only reasonable way to use broccoli seeds at home is to sprout them. You can actually grow mature broccoli plants from them and collect a new serving of seeds. However, this would be difficult because saving broccoli seeds is hard.
You’ll also have to sacrifice the edible broccoli as seeds grow in the part of the plant used in cooking. To save them, you’ll need to let the broccoli head mature until it turns yellow and develops seed pods. Then, cut the heads and hang them to dry for 2 weeks before removing the seeds with your hands.
This process is highly time-consuming and you must understand that not all seeds will be able to germinate. There is also a risk of cross-pollination that creates hybrid seeds (not all of them good) because broccoli is a close relative of mustard plants.
Sprouting Broccoli Seeds: Jar Method
In order to use broccoli sprout seeds for actual sprouting, you’ll need a jar, piece of cheesecloth, and some water. Soak a tablespoon of seeds for 12 hours, drain them and close the jar with a piece of cheesecloth to allow easy airflow.
Leave the jar in a reasonably warm and light place, but away from direct sunlight. Rinse and drain the seeds every 12 hours for 3 days and your sprouts should start growing happily. Harvest them when they start sprouting two tiny leaves and consume immediately or store in the fridge for 1-3 days.
Or, you can save time and get all nutritional benefits from Broccoli Sprout Powder.
Broccoli Sprout Powder: Get the Max of Broccoli Seeds Benefits
Scientists from different institutes are currently studying broccoli vegetable seeds very closely. They believe them to hold extremely valuable elements that can be used in pharmaceutics. However, we have yet to see FDA-approved broccoli drugs, but we can enjoy the concentrate of health benefits offered by this vegetable by consuming broccoli sprout powder.
The secret to the positive effects of powdered broccoli sprouts on humans is antioxidant sulforaphane. Note that this product also contains a great number of other important antioxidants, including carotene, zeaxanthin, and lutein.
Broccoli Sprout Powder: Nutrition Info
The main reason why sprouted broccoli seeds are so good for you is their high nutritional value. They might not be the champion of nutrient density, like hemp or flax seed, but they contain a great number of elements in small amounts. These vitamins and minerals include:
- Vitamin C;
- Vitamin A;
- B vitamins;
- Vitamin K;
- Vitamin E;
- Potassium;
- Copper;
- Calcium;
- Iron;
- Selenium;
- Zinc;
- Magnesium;
- Manganese.
The levels of vitamins C and K are particularly high and they remain this way even in the powdered product.
Note that the nutritional value of broccoli sprout powder is a little lower when compared to fresh sprouts because some of the nutrients get destroyed during the drying and pulverizing. However, broccoli sprout powder keeps much better and is more convenient to use in cooking.
You wouldn’t keep a sprout farm going all year round so that you could eat a handful of small green broccoli plants every day. However, including 2-3 tablespoons of powder to your daily meals is easy.
Sprouted Broccoli Seed Powder for Athletes & Bodybuilders
Practicing any kind of sport, either professionally or for fun, is good as physical exercise is an essential element of a healthy lifestyle. If you are working out to increase your muscle mass in particular, you’ll know that this plan will require a special diet with lots of protein. Broccoli sprout powder will make a good addition to your diet in this case as it’s a highly nutritious product.
This food doesn’t contain as many amino acids as specialized protein powders, but the ones that it gives you are easy for the body to process and use for muscle building. Due to the versatile list of essential vitamins and minerals contained in broccoli sprout powder, it can enrich a protein cocktail, making it more beneficial to your wellbeing as a whole. The calorie count of this product is low and it contains only a very small amount of ‘good’ unsaturated fats. Therefore, adding a few spoonfuls of it to your protein drinks won’t interfere with an athlete’s strictly regulated diet.
Should Vegans Eat Broccoli Sprout Powder?
Yes, powdered broccoli sprouts are definitely a great food for vegans and vegetarians, especially kids. Broccoli is important for a plant-based diet due to its high content of vitamins A and C as well as iron and calcium.
If you aren’t fond of the vegetable, broccoli sprout powder offers you a way to get all these essential nutrients in an easily-digestible form. You can ‘mask’ its flavor with juices or tasty fruits, so you won’t have to eat the green veggie itself to enjoy its benefits.
Broccoli Sprout Powder for Detox
As broccoli sprout powder is packed with antioxidants and dietary fiber, it’s a great superfood for detox. Green smoothies are a major part of any cleansing diet, and this product will enhance any of them.
Combine broccoli sprout powder with grapefruit juice in order to get a detox super boost. Antioxidants in the mix, vitamin C in particular, will help strengthen your body and improve general wellbeing. Dietary fiber will ‘soak up’ toxins from liver and kidneys as it moves through your intestines and flushes them out safely.
Unlike some dubious detox supplements, broccoli sprout powder is a perfectly natural product that doesn’t contain any synthetic chemicals. It’s also full of essential vitamins and minerals, which is important as most detox diets are quite restrictive. With this product in your arsenal, you can keep your nutrient intake at normal levels during the 5-7 days of thorough internal body cleansing.
Broccoli Sprout Powder Side Effects: Are There Any?
Broccoli is one of the healthiest foods in the world and it has no reported side effects. Broccoli sprout and by extension the powder made from them are the same. These foods are even safe for pregnant women and babies if taken in moderate amounts.
However, you must understand that raw sprouts might be potentially dangerous. This depends on how they’ve been grown as the tiny plants may be contaminated with dangerous bacteria. At Food To Live we ensure that all sprouts used to make our Broccoli Sprout Powder are 100% free of any contaminations.
There are no reports of sprouted broccoli seed powder interacting with any kind of medication.
How Much Broccoli Sprout Powder Should You Eat?
Broccoli sprout powder is a perfectly safe superfood. Even allergies to this product are extremely rare, so there is no ‘maximum’ dosage for consuming it a day. It’s also not the kind of ingredient you can and will want to put into everything, so the risk of actual overeating is very small.
As long as you stick to reasonable amounts of sprouted broccoli seed powder (about 2-5 tablespoons a day), you should be able to enjoy all the nutritional benefits of this product without any risks. This amount can be increased if you are making some vegetable juice or other similar beverages as the concentration of broccoli powder in these recipes should be higher.
Tasty Ways to Use Sprouted Broccoli Seed Powder
Everyone who looked into the tips for healthy eating today knows that green smoothies are one of the best foods for boosting your meal plan. As broccoli is an extraordinary vegetable, including it into a glass of green vegetable goodness is a must.
However, this can be a big challenge for your blender, especially if you have one of the less expensive department store brands. Fresh and even frozen broccoli is very hard, which makes it difficult to process in this kind of appliance.
Note that even if you manage to turn a cup of raw/frozen/steamed broccoli into a drinkable smoothie, you’ll have to pair it with some strong-flavored fruits. This veggie is quite bitter in this mashed up form. It doesn’t taste that bad steamed or frozen, but it can’t be called delicious either. You’ll have to pair it with pineapple, grapefruit, or some similar fruits to make the smoothie tolerable.
Broccoli Sprout Powder solves all these problems at once and allows you to make a variety of tasty and healthy green smoothies with ease. It doesn’t matter what kind of blender you have as powder can be mixed in by hand if necessary.
In fact, you can add it not only to smoothies but also to vegetable juices in order to make them ‘greener’ and more nutritious.
If you want to get creative, add some broccoli sprout powder to your baked goods. You can either combine it with flour or sprinkle onto buns, breads, and pizzas. This ingredient can be used in gluten-free baking as broccoli sprouts don’t contain this protein.
Finally, you can add a tablespoon (or several) of broccoli sprout powder to a stew, salad, or even sandwich. The flavor of the product isn’t overwhelming and goes well with vegetables and spices.
Healthy Broccoli Smoothie Recipe for Champions
You can include 2-3 spoonfuls of broccoli sprout powder to any green smoothie recipe, even one that contains broccoli. However, in that case, you should limit the powder to one tablespoon.
If you want to make a super-health-booster smoothie, try this recipe:
1 banana
1 cup strawberries
1 handful raw spinach
2 tablespoons broccoli sprout powder
2 tablespoons hemp protein powder
1 tablespoon cacao powder
1 tablespoon hemp seeds
1 cup hemp milk
Mesquite powder or another sweetener to taste
