The role of sprouts in human nutrition
A review
Keywords:
sprouts, chemical changes during germination, fat content, fatty acid composition, protein content, amino acid composition, carbohydrate content, ant nutritive materials, ant carcinogen effectAbstract
Based on the data of the literature it can be stated that the original composition of the seeds essentially changes during germination. The quantity of the protein fractions changes, the proportion of the nitrogen containing fractions shifts towards the smaller protein fractions, oligopeptides and free amino acids. Beyond this changes the quantity of the amino acids (some of them increase, others decrease or do not alter) during germination, and nonprotein amino acids also are produced. In consequence of these changes, the biological value of the sprout protein increase, and greater digestibility was established in animal experiments. The composition of the triglycerides also changes, owing to hydrolysis free fatty acids originate, that can be considered as a certain kind of predigestion. Generally, the ratio of the saturated fatty acids increases compared to unsaturated fatty acids, and the ratio within the unsaturated fatty acids shifts to the essential linoleic acid. The quantity of the antinutritive materials decreases, and the utilization of the macro- and micro elements is increased owing to germination. Furthermore the sprouts contain many such materials (sulphoraphane, sulphoraphene, isothiocianates, glucosinolates, enzymes, antioxidants, vitamins) that are proved to be effective in the prevention of cancer, or in the therapy against cancer.
