You can add them to sandwiches, wraps, pasta and lots of other things if you just get creative! Here are 5 great reasons why you need to try these right away:

1. These Sprouts are HIGH in nutrients and enzymes. Consuming them increases vitality and vigor!

2. They are antioxidant powerhouses! They are so rich in antioxidants that they fight free radicals in your body and fight aging. In fact, the sprouts have more antioxidant properties than broccoli alone.

3. According to John Hopkins research broccoli sprouts provide cancer protection.

4. Sprouts reduce symptoms of asthma and other lung problems by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation in the airways.
