Meet sprouts; the original superfood that's been hiding in plain sight. In this episode, Doug Evans, author of the national bestseller "The Sprout Book" and founder of The Sprouting Company, reveals why sprouts are the most nutrient-dense food on the planet. From broccoli sprouts with over 2,000 peer-reviewed studies on sulforaphane to the simple magic of turning 35g of seeds into 350g of nutrition in just 5 days, Doug shares the science and practical wisdom behind this ancient superfood. We dive deep into how sprouts naturally trigger GLP-1 peptide secretion for weight management, provide chemoprotective properties against cancer, support hormone regulation, and deliver every essential amino acid your body needs. Doug also shares his holistic approach to vitality at 59, from desert living and daily friendships to optimal sleep and natural bathing rituals. Whether you're looking to upgrade your nutrition, support your health naturally, or discover the most accessible superfood that anyone can grow on their kitchen counter, this conversation will transform how you think about food and healing.
