God's Multi-Vitamin 
Pills
By Dr. Nance MacLeod NMD, PhD
Thursday evening I went to a seminar called Super Sprouting. I have sprouted for years off and on, and I know the amazing benefits of eating raw living foods like sprouts. I knew I needed to get re-inspired to start sprouting again, and even though I have been in the natural medicine business for more than 30 years, I know that there is always more to learn, and I am always open to learning something new.

One of the facilitators, Tony Hornick developed the best and easiest sprout grower I have ever seen. It is designed to build up humidity for fast growth, has no corners to allow parasites, fungi to grow, easy to clean and makes sprouting extremely safe and easy.

Tony announced cheerfully that he is 82 years old, goes out dancing 3 times a week, and is in excellent health and one of his secrets is eating sprouts every day. The other 2 secrets he swears by are drinking good water and dancing.I was very inspired by Tony's knowledge, energy, and passion for health and wellness.

I loved how he explained the nutritional power of sprouts, "Seeds and Beans are mothers.They are wombs that bear a child. The day a baby sprout is born is the healthiest day of its life. That is the day to eat a sprout. Sprouts are nature's multi-vitamin pills, and their high nutritional value is developed naturally by nature and God."
All sprouts have a high level of disease preventing phytochemicals, including natural powerful enzymes, vitamins, minerals, and plant proteins. Sprouts are really much more than a "super food" they are a "wonder food" that God has given us. I often tell my patients the best foods to eat are foods that look the way God made it. Once we have processed, added chemicals, cooked, dried, canned, boxed, modified our food, it loses Gods valuable nutrition and no longer serves as nutrition for the body. In fact, these artificial manmade foods can and often does become toxic to our physical bodies. This is what causes dis-ease in the body.

Scientists have studied sprouts for centuries. Major organizations, including the National Institutes of Health, American Cancer Society and Johns Hopkins University have reinforced the benefits of sprouts with ongoing studies that investigate various sprout varieties for their nutritional properties and to validate health claims.

Sprouts are a very low priced source of very highly nutritious foods and can be grown indoors on a table or countertop. You do not need a sunny window, the sprouts will still grow. I have one patient with a very large family (6 children) who cannot afford to buy lots of fresh organic vegetables for his family. Growing sprouts is how he feeds his family. His family loves being self sufficient and having control over their own food supply. All of them know how it feels to get good nutrition; and to feel healthy, most people do not know that feeling. The whole family is all very healthy, energetic and clever. The freshness, high nutritional value, and low cost are what most of us are looking for now in our economy.Try sprouting today.
