For years, we've been sold the idea that eating healthy is complicated, expensive, or out of reach. But what if I told you the most powerful superfood on the planet is something you can grow in your kitchen without soil, sunlight, or even much effort?

This week on Live Well, Be Well, I sit down with Doug Evans, the ultimate advocate for sprouting, to uncover how these tiny plants can revolutionise our health, longevity, and even the global food system. Doug isn’t just a passionate Sprout evangelist—his journey from a fast-food diet to becoming the Sprout Guy is nothing short of transformational. He shares the science behind why sprouts are nutritional powerhouses, packed with protein, antioxidants, and micronutrients that can help combat chronic disease, enhance gut health, and support sustainable eating.
