Organic broccoli seeds for sprouting

Broccoli comes from the Italian "brocco," which means sprout. Sprouted broccoli and young broccoli shoots were already highly valued during the Roman era!

🌱 Its mild raw cabbage flavor is slightly spicier than the vegetable. Particularly rich in chlorophyll and vitamin C, it is an excellent source of vitamins A, B2, B6, C, and E, as well as vitamin K, but also essential nutrients such as phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, folic acid, and potassium.

Even better, sprouted broccoli contains a wide variety of antioxidants: indoles, glutathione, quercetin, lutein, beta-carotene, zeaxanthin, as well as sulforaphane isothiocyanate, compounds found in all cruciferous vegetables but present in even greater quantities in broccoli. Like vitamins, their concentration increases significantly during the germination process (the sprouted seed contains up to 100 times more sulforaphane than the adult plant!), making organic broccoli seeds for sprouting a the ultimate health food.

Soaking: 12 hours

Germination time: 4 to 6 days

Its cultivation is very easy in theEasygreen Light or in theEasygreen Sol from 16°C: The shells remain at the base, and the dense root network allows for rapid vertical growth.

• Protect the cardiovascular system (It is proven that daily consumption of cruciferous vegetables reduces the concentration of homocysteine in the blood)

• Detoxify the liver, drain the lungs (sulforaphane) and stimulate the immune system.

• Inhibit the degeneration of the nervous system and repair brain tissues.

• Maintain good eye health.

• Have some antibacterial properties (Broccoli would notably reduce the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria such as Helicobacter pylori).

Broccoli is currently the subject of extensive research in the fight against and prevention of cancer. Indeed, it could inhibit the appearance of tumors and the growth of cancer cells, particularly in the lung and breast.

Sulforaphane was the subject of a medical study conducted by Dr. Paul Talalay from Johns Hopkins University in the USA. An attempt to patent broccoli sprouts was even made in the United States, but this attempt was rejected on July 23, 2001, by the court in Nashville, USA.
Indeed, the sulforaphane found in broccoli sprouts would indeed allow for the prevention of certain brain conditions, including strokes, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease. Additionally, sulforaphane protects these cells from oxidative stress caused by harmful free radicals.
