The proof is in the science
Grains contain an outer layer of starch which during the sprouting process gets stripped from the grains releasing the beneficial nutrients inside.
“When sprouting begins, enzymes within the grain are activated and start to metabolize the starchy endosperm. This transforms
long-term storage starch into simple sugars that are more easily digested by the growing plant. Protein compounds within the
grain go through the same type of transformation – newly activated enzymes increase the bioavailability of storage proteins by
transforming them into peptides and amino acids.”
