6. Sprouts
Sprouts have long been recognized for their health benefits, and some new research is suggesting that some sprouts are actually useful for helping to eliminate poisons from the body. The problem with commercially-produced sprouts is that they are very prone to contamination by germs and bacteria. The environment that’s best for growing sprouts is one that’s warm and moist, which is also ideal for growing nasty bacteria. Sprouts have been subjected to numerous product recalls through the years due to contamination. The best option is to grow your own at home, which is probably easier than you think.
