The Proof with Simon Hill

NOTE

Benefits of Sprouts and Fermented Foods for the Microbiome

Sprouts, like lentils, are highly beneficial for the microbiome due to their high fiber, resistant starches, and polyphenols. When lentils are sprouted, they rapidly increase in growth, fiber content, protein content, and vitamins, unlocking new nutritional benefits. Broccoli sprouts, in particular, have the highest concentration of sulfurophane, an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Fermented foods, such as pickles and sourdough, are also important for the microbiome as they provide fiber, polyphenols, and a diverse mix of beneficial bacteria. Overall, incorporating sprouts and fermented foods into your diet can have significant positive impacts on your health.
