Whats more nourishing than a grain a grain thats been sprouted an unsprouted grain is dormant waiting for the right time to germinate its nutrients are locked up and well protected making dormant grains harder to digest when soaked in water the grain wakes up and starts to sprout enzyme activity breaks down growth inhibitors transforming and multiplying nutrients into their more easily digestible forms buckwheat isnt wheat it isnt actually even a grain its a pseudo grain more
