1. Only Pennies Per Serving
One tablespoon of seeds will fill a quart jar with several ounces of sprouts. A 4-ounce package will yield several pounds.
2. Simple and Easy
Take less than a minute per day to grow and prepare. They will grow
nearly anywhere indoors, in any season. Sprouts require very little
space and travel well. They are the ideal vegetables for campers,
boaters and RV’ers. Complete, easy -to-follow instructions are provided
in the sprouting kits, on the seed package labels and in the Handy
Pantry’s book, Sprouting for Health in the new millennium.
3. Fresh and Ready Quickly
This “garden in your kitchen” grows very fast, in any kind of weather.
No digging, planting, weeding, pests or chemicals involved. And there’s
no long wait, as in seasonal outdoor gardens. Just 3 to 7 days to a
bountiful, nutrition-packed harvest. When stored in your refrigerator,
they will stay fresh for days- even weeks if rinsed properly.
4. Toxin-free Food
Sprouts are as sweet and pure as Nature intended food to be. The Handy
Pantry supplies only natural, untreated seeds, with up to 99% rates of
germination, grown especially for sprouting. Almost everything we carry
is now organic.
5. Complete Foods
Sprouts are real health food. They are full of life- as you will see in
how fast and luxuriously they grow. The right combination of sprouts
contains everything needed for life and health. All their many
nutritional elements are easily assimilated and readily available to
your body. When home-grown, you know they are pure, and you can enjoy
them at the peak of their perfection.
6. Tasty and Delicious
Bursting with flavor, you may be surprised how truly delectable they
are. Enjoy them in salads, on sandwiches, stir-fried, steamed, or even
baked in wholesome, home-made breads. You will find several recipe
ideas in our book, Sprouting for Health in the 90’s.
7. Highly Nutritious
Several contain more protein than cooked meat-at a tiny fraction of the
cost. The presence and balance of amino acids makes this protein more
digestible. All sprouts are rich in vitamins, minerals, trace elements,
enzymes, and fiber. When exposed to light, several become rich in
chlorophyll. For specific nutritional qualities of each, see Sprouting
for Health in the 90’s.
8. Low in Calories / Fat
One fully-packed cup of alfalfa sprouts contains only 16 calories.
These are simple sugars for quick energy. Sprouts contain no
cholesterol and provide several essential fatty acids. Sprouts are the
perfect weight-loss and body-purification food for the 90’s.
9. Help Detox your Body
Chlorophyll helps cleanse and oxygenate the blood. Enzymes aid in the
digestion and assimilation of nutrients, and contribute to the body’s
life force. Fiber aids elimination and their lecithin helps the body
get rid of cholesterol. A raw food diet is one of the best ways to
detox your body.
10. Build your Immune System
Antioxidants protect you from radiation and toxic chemicals. They help
the body to cleanse, detox, rebuild and heal itself. Sprouts are rich
in antioxidants and help protect you from the health scourge of the
90’s— toxic build-up. Antioxidant enzymes are especially important,
because they are essential for the proper function of the immune
system. Sprouts are one of the best sources for these important
nutrients.
