They began to germinate seeds with their subsequent use for food a very long time ago. They were eaten to get rid of serious illnesses, sailors took them with them on campaigns to avoid scurvy, in countries where hunger often occurred, sprouted seeds saved thousands of lives.
The study of the effect of food seedlings on the human body began in the 20th century. In the course of the studies, it was found that the seedlings contain antioxidants, which are actively involved in the fight against the emergence and development of malignant tumors. Sprouts are also useful because they contain a huge amount and variety of nutrients and vitamins. Thanks to these substances, metabolism and blood formation are improved, efficiency is increased, fatigue and apathy are eliminated, and immunity is increased. The condition of the skin, hair, nails and teeth becomes better after the start of eating the seedlings. A positive effect is also on the digestive system: the intestines are cleansed of toxins and toxins, some stomach diseases are eliminated, the risk and development of dysbiosis is reduced, and stones from the gallbladder and kidneys are destroyed and removed.
The forgiven seeds of many plants are beneficial to health, but each has a different "role" to play. For example, wheat, rye, oat, sunflower and flax seedlings are good for the digestive system, oats promote blood renewal and coordinate the thyroid gland, rye removes radionuclides and toxins, rice cleanses the urinary and digestive systems, lentils strengthens the immune system, buckwheat and sesame seeds are useful for the cardiovascular system, pumpkin is necessary for men - for the prevention and treatment of prostatitis, milk thistle sprouts cleanse the liver, corn has a rejuvenating effect, beans have an anti-inflammatory and wound healing effect, peas and beans lower blood sugar levels, and soybean sprouts inhibit the development of tumors and provoke cell regeneration.
Unsprouted grains are a "heavy" food, as they contain enzyme inhibitors, so eating them raw in large quantities is not recommended. Enzyme inhibitors are substances that slow down enzymatic reactions (digestive reactions in particular). When boiled, enzyme inhibitors are destroyed, but together with them, a huge amount of vitamins is destroyed, which makes food of little use.
Plant seeds contain a large amount of nutrients, the only thing they lack to stimulate growth is water. When the seeds are soaked, metabolic processes begin to activate inside them, and growth begins. Enzyme inhibitors are destroyed, and the enzymes in the seed break down proteins, fats and carbohydrates. Along with these processes, the content of vitamins and antioxidants increases 5-7 times. There are many vitamins B, A, PP, C, E in seedlings. They contain a lot of lithium, which is involved in the activity of the nervous system. Enzymes are essential to stimulate digestion. Thus, from ordinary plant seeds, we get food fortified with nutrients and vitamins.
