Digestive Health

β€’ According to some studies, sprouting a seed significantly increases the amount of fiber it contains.
β€’ Much of the sprout fiber is β€œinsoluble” fiber, which means it doesn’t dissolve in your stomach.
β€’ The sprout fiber acts as a prebiotic and feeds the β€œgood” bacteria in your intestines. These bacteria are important for maintaining a stable, healthy digestive system, and can help reduce symptoms like bloating and gas.
