Publisher's summary

The audiobook about the power of sprouts as an ultra-food for health, weight loss, and optimum nutrition by Doug Evans, the cofounder of Organic Avenue and the founder of Juicero.

The Sprout Book is a transformative plan to empower listeners to embark on a plant-based way of eating that’s low-cost and accessible. With a foreword by Joel Fuhrman, MD, this book introduces sprouts, one of the most nutritious sustainable foods on earth, by adding a few dishes to a diet and then shifting into a raw, whole foods plant-based diet.

Among the mind-blowing nutritional qualities of sprouts:

  • They have 20-30 times the nutrients of other vegetables and 100 times those of meat
  • They pack cancer-fighting properties and help to protect us from cardiovascular disease and environmental pollutants
  • They aid in digestion
  • They are a simple way to grow your own vegetables and compatible with all diets

The 40 recipes inside feature sprouts on top of raw vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, spices, sea vegetables, and top-quality cold-pressed vegetable oils for the healthiest diet possible. The Sprout Book includes informative interviews with leaders in functional medicine and nutrition. Use it to change your diet and super-charge your health!

"Sprouting increases nutrient levels without increasing calories. And growing sprouts at home is inexpensive, safe, easy, and fun. The Sprout Book is the source for adding this superfood to your diet!" (Dr. Mehmet Oz)

In The Sprout Book, he demonstrates and guides us to understand the miraculous power of the natural order, and the raw nutritious miracles that exist in the cycle of life."

I’m a sprouter now

I will start with saying I am vegan and have been for most of my life. I have never sprouted before and came across a TikTok with Doug and Joe Rogan. Got the audible of this book and the rest is history. Definitely an enjoyable listen and added to my nutrition and lifestyle.

Beautiful!!!

Of course the more we learn about simple nutrition, the more we realize how much we don’t know! I’ve been on this journey of “diets” with my wife for years now. The Fruitarian Diet or 80/10/10, the Ketogenic diet, the Plant-Based Keto Diet, the Carnivore Diet, the Keto-Vore diet, and dabbled in the Paleo diet as well…

Turns out, all those diets are quite restrictive and most of the foods aren’t as cheap as most folks can afford. Who knew that one could find pretty much everything the human body requires for optimal nutrition just by eating home-grown sprouts for only pennies per serving!?

Needless to say, my mind is blown! I’m super excited to start sprouting for my family and enjoying the obvious benefits that will come from including them into our daily intake!

Thanks so much Doug Evens!!

where is the PDF?

I enjoyed the book very much, however the audible book did not include the PDF. I called audible to see if I could get it and they didn't have any idea whatsoever. Too bad!

Seeds come from God

Interesting information on sprouting, however this book will not be recommended due to authors comments with deity as, “goddess” rather than God.

Too WOO-WOO for me w/ over-the-top health claims

I really just wanted to know the process of sprouting. Instead, I got a bunch of over-the-top health claims. Merely inserting the word "MAY" when talking about autism was a bridge too far. I'm not a hippie so stop referring to washing seeds as "sacred time" . I think I'll search for a quick-start guide on youtube.
