Whole Grains Council Highlights Benefits of Sprouted Grains As ‘Grain of the Month’ for April

Livermore, CA (PRWEB) April 25, 2012

TruRoots, a leader in sustainably sourced, GMO-free whole grains and sprouted foods categories, applauds the Whole Grains Council for highlighting the benefits of sprouted grains by noting them as their whole grain of the month for April.

Sprouting grains increases many of the grains’ key nutrients, including B vitamins, vitamin C, folate, fiber, and essential amino acids often lacking in grains, such as lysine. In addition to boosting nutrition by increasing vitamins and micronutrients, sprouting activates enzymes to make those nutrients more available for the body to absorb.

TruRoots takes the work out of sprouting at home – by using a process that involves germinating and carefully drying organic grains and beans – with their convenient, shelf-stable sprouted grain products for everyday meals, including:

Accents Sprouted Quinoa Trio: medley of organic red, black, and health , sprouted to release full nutritional potential and natural enzymes with a delicious nutty flavor. Named a 2011 sofi™ Silver Award winner
Accents Sprouted Rice Trio: exclusive ensemble of germinated brown rice, germinated red rice and quick-cooking wild rice.
Accents Sprouted Lentil Trio: blend of organic black, brown, and green lentils, sprouted to increase nutrient availability and quicker cooking.
Sprouted Quinoa: ancient grain staple is high in protein and quick to cook.
Sprouted Green Lentils: captured at the moment between being a bean and a green, these fresh-tasting little rounds are miraculously quick to cook

Sprouted Mung Beans: Smooth, buttery texture is coupled with a rich nutritive profile for an easy way to enliven soups and stews.
