Broccoli Sprouts contain more than 40X the nutrients of mature heads of broccoli.
They also contain Sulforaphane or more accurately, Glucoraphanin, which converts to Sulforaphane when blended and ingested.
They are a great source of vitamins, nutrients and phytochemicals.
They also contain protein and fibre!

Your BROCBLOKs will arrive in freezer safe pouches of 15 blocks. Each pack can fit comfortably on a freezer shelf or in a freezer drawer.

Technically, Sulforaphane is a phytochemical within the isothiocyanate group of organosulfur compounds. It is produced when the enzyme myrosinase transforms Glucoraphanin, a glucosinolate, into Sulforaphane upon damage to the plant, which allows the two compounds to mix and react.
It has been the subject of over 5000 peer reviewed studies and has been shown on numerous occasions to provide health benefits. Check out some of the studies and research here to get more info on how it is beneficial!
-
You can use them any way you want!
We love ours blended in our daily smoothie, but you can add them to your soups, make pesto out of them or even eat them as they come (although we wouldn't strongly recommend that!). If you are cooking with them, think of them as similar to a block of frozen spinach.

-
Your BROCBLOKs will be shipped in 100% compostable or recyclable packaging.
They will be packed snugly in an insulated cardboard box, which contains dry ice.
The dry ice will mostly have evaporated ("sublimated" is the official term) by the time the package gets to you. Be careful not to touch the dry ice with bare skin as it is -80c (which is why we use it to keep your BROCBLOKs frozen).
Each block of dry ice is wrapped in an envelope for extra protection.
-
BROCBLOKs are made from 100% Broccoli Sprouts, so they taste like these! Earthy with a hint of peppery spice.
If you are adding to smoothies, you can make your favourite blend of fruits and vegetables to ensure you have a delicious tasting beverage! Or check out our Recipe page for inspiration!

Studies have shown that Broccoli Sprouts can have a positive impact on digestion and your gut biome, that said, everyone is different.
Raffinose (complex sugars) can often be the cause of bloating and gas as these cannot be digested by the human body. Broccoli Sprouts have significantly lower levels of raffinose when compared to mature broccoli and other brassicas.
If you have any concerns, please check with your health professional before purchasing.

The short answer is yes, you can!
Once defrosted, keep chilled and use within 2 days.
If you are cooking with heat, we recommend that your sprouts are cooked through before serving.
