Broccoli Seeds - 4 oz.

---

These seeds are specially selected, tested, and stored for high germination sprouting use.  For best results, store the seeds in a dry (but not refrigerated) place.

Researchers have recently discovered a number of exciting phytonutrients with amazing health protecting properties. One phytonutrient derived  from broccoli is Sulforaphane.  Researchers have determined that broccoli sprouts contain a much greater Sulforaphane potential than broccoli florets.  Enjoy these sprouts regularly.
