Thank you for this article! I always knew watercress was healthy and good, but not THIS healthy and powerful!

Thanks for the comment, JC! I’m not sure if this will be helpful, but here’s an FRN article about how to get bacteria and chemicals off of veggies and fruits, in case you might be interested in reading it! https://foodrevolution.org/blog/how-to-wash-vegetables-fruits/ –Ina, Food Revolution Network Impact Team

Great, informative article. I think the downsides of finding clean watercress are too much for me.

In reply to Stella.

Great thought, Stella. I sprout all the time. Just sprouted black sesame seeds for the first time and have recently sprouted amaranth a couple times. These take a bit longer (about 2-3x) the simple broccoli seed sprouting which I keep going most days.
