                                Scientific research shows that sprouts are often harvested within the first 3 to 7 days of germination. This initial, high-metabolism growth phase is when nutrient levels, including vitamins and antioxidants, are most concentrated. So, at what stage are sprouts most nutritious? The answer lies in this rapid, early development.
