    Default advice on sunflower seed sprouts.... and Ann Wigmore's book TOTALLY ROCKS!!!!!

    undefinedGreetings,
    I am going to begin sprouting and wanted to start with sunflower and lentil sprouts. I want to just keep it simple at first and wondered if I could just buy some hulled sunflower sprouts and a bag of lentils at my local health food store and use those. I have done my research and realize that the 'premium' specialty seed reserved especially for sprouting is the best way to go, but as I said, I want to keep it really simple to start and become more sophisticated as I go along.

    p.s. I have just finished Ann Wigmore's book, "The Hippocrates Diet" and it TOTALLY ROCKS!

    THANK YOU!

    Allie

    Yes those should work, just make sure you're not getting roasted. I get my sunflower seeds from the hfs and they sprout. And I actually bought my lentils from the regular ol' grocery store Food Lion/Bloom and they sprouted.

    I still want to get all of Ann Wigmore books, thanks for mentioning how you like it!!

    Hi Allie,

    I would like to share your love for Dr. Wigmore's book. I also love her books, including the one you mentioned. I have already read 4 of her books in the last 2 months, and I have made wonderful rejuvelac from them. She really sounds like an amazing knowledgeable woman.
