Most international grocery stores carry mung bean sprouts, as do some national chains. Your best bet is to call around and find the best source in your town, they will often be able to tell you what day fresh sprouts are delivered. Some people grow their own! The internet is full of helpful tips on how to do that safely. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5a2444a7b1ffb6632b1f47d5/t/5ad273c48a922d44a4505051/1523741640259/step7.png HOW TO - now what? It takes about 30 days of drinking your sprout juice to feel the full benefits. Though, some people report positive changes before then. We can't say for sure how increasing your intake of isoflavanoids through drinking bean sprout juice will affect you exactly. BUT here are some things reported by bean sprout juice loyalists: healthier looking hair and skin, more energy, better short term memory, better bowel performance and decreased inflammation. We hope it will do all of that for you and then some! https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5a2444a7b1ffb6632b1f47d5/t/5b1f0404aa4a996d83470f64/1528759309112/cheatsheet2.png HOW TO - recomMended dose: 3/4 cup juice per week or ~2TBSP a day 6 cups (~16oz) fresh mungbean sprouts yields ~ 3/4 cup juice. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5a2444a7b1ffb6632b1f47d5/t/5ad270352b6a28134fa2e708/1523740729919/step8.png HOW TO - TELL US HOW YOU FEEL! Though our studies at The Bean Sprout Chronicles are informal, we would love to hear how you are feeling, perhaps bean sprout juice will ease other symptoms and complaints that we don't even know about yet! To tell us how you are feeling and about your experience using bean sprout juice head on over to our SHARE page. We look forward to hearing about your experience! (Please know that your information will never be shared with anyone outside of The Bean Sprout Chronicles!) https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5a2444a7b1ffb6632b1f47d5/t/5a5d72cce4966bc33b014137/1516073683459/step5.png HOW TO - Juice! Almost any juicer will work! Follow the instructions of your juicer and it should be a piece of cake. It's a little bit messy at first, but overtime you will be the boss of those unruly little beans. Just takes a little practice! You will notice that bean sprout juice doesn't exactly look appetizing at first. It's a little cloudy and has a strange greenish glow...DON'T WORRY! This is normal! https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5a2444a7b1ffb6632b1f47d5/t/5a5d71d14192027395f0cb3d/1516073435006/step3.png HOW TO - how much to buy/make? This is sort of up to you. These numbers are for an averaged sized man or woman. What is that? WHO KNOWS. We tell everyone to start here and adjust as needed. Recommended dose of mung bean sprout juice per week: 3/4 cup juice per week OR ~2 TBSP a day. 6 cups dry sprouts (approx. 16oz) yields ~3/4 cup juice. (Don't worry. Step 6 gives you juice drinking options!) If possible, it is best to make fresh sprout juice once a week and keep it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Some people choose to make two weeks worth at a time, and freeze half to thaw for the second week. These people report similar positive effects, but we can't be sure. Initially it is best to experiment with your dose and your method. REMEMBER: Never Eat Slimy Sprouts! This will factor into your sprout getting schedule :) https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5a2444a7b1ffb6632b1f47d5/t/5a5d72fac8302520d472d968/1516073736739/step6.png HOW TO - Drink up! POUR YOURSELF A GLASS.   SPROUT JUICE + FRUIT &/or VEGETABLE JUICE: Mix your sprout juice with any combination of fruit or vegetable juice. A little ginger is always nice. Check that your juice can stay safely refrigerated for 7 days and make a fresh new batch every week. Some freshly squeezed juices may not be fresh for 7 days - so do a little research on your juice concoction of choice! https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5a2444a7b1ffb6632b1f47d5/t/5a5d748f0d9297fcaa44bff7/1523739650046/step6b.png HOW TO - DRINK UP! SHOTS! SHOTS! SHOTS! SHOTS! SPROUT JUICE SHOT + CHASER: Pour yourself a shot glass full of sprout juice! This is sometimes known as the "take your medicine" approach. It doesn't take long to get used to the taste, but having a chaser on hand certainly won't hurt. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5a2444a7b1ffb6632b1f47d5/t/5b1f00671ae6cf7caeb1a039/1528758397770/step1.png HOW TO - Are sprouts for you? There is always a risk of exposure to bad bacteria when eating fresh produce. Please take the necessary precautions when consuming raw foods and in deciding if sprouts are right for you. Foodsafety.gov has some helpful guidelines. There are powdered mung bean sprouts on the market, but we haven't tested that out yet. Some people skip the juicing and just eat sprouts everyday. We find the easiest method to be juicing. Let us know what's working for you :) https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5a2444a7b1ffb6632b1f47d5/t/5a5d71ea9140b7de43a7c032/1516073456607/step4.png HOW TO - wash your produce!

Multiple treatments over the next 6 years eventually failed and the disease persisted. I decided to remove my infected colon and it was reattached to my small intestine giving me a j-pouch so that I could poop naturally. It was unfortunate and relatively rare that the disease reappeared in my small bowel. I had a few choices, but since I was no longer losing blood or taking prednisone I decided that I would have to live with running to the bathroom 15 - 20 times a day. As a third year medical student I rotated through forensic pathology and Dr. Adelstein shared with me his experiences with consuming mung bean sprout juice. He explained to me that the isoflavinoids were known to affect stool formation and decrease inflammation. I had nothing to lose. I didn't notice much until after about two weeks when I had my first solid stool. Now, please bare this in mind, this hadn't happened in over ten years. It was the impossible, yet there it was and I hadn't changed a single thing except the drinking of the beansprout juice. Not only that but I started to notice small improvements in my complexion as well as my short term memory. I am now three months into my journey with mung bean sprouts. I no longer run to the bathroom 15-20 times a day nor have diarrhea. I look better. I think better and perhaps most importantly, I feel the best I've felt in ten years...and this is just the beginning."

"I have been drinking an apple juice and beansprout juice mixture for the past several months and have noticed several improvements in my overall physical health. I have shoulder and back pain from old athletic injuries. I have noticed positive changes with less pain since using the sprouts. My digestion is better, and bowel functions are also very regular. My skin is smoother and friends tell me my facial features look better than before I started taking sprouts. Overall, at 84 years of age, I feel better, and experience less fatigue than before. I highly recommend them to one and all." Bill Wickersham, Ed.D Feb. 2018, Age 84 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5a2444a7b1ffb6632b1f47d5/t/5aa6c97171c10b8bf9a5d898/1520910551542/test_yugen.png TESTIMONIALS - "I sleep better and I feel like I cope with stress better" I have been using this for about a year and I feel great. As a middle-aged man without any underlying conditions, I sleep better and I feel like I cope with stress better. I will continue doing this for sure, and recommend it to anyone. Dr. Yugen Gan Feb. 2018 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5a2444a7b1ffb6632b1f47d5/t/5aa6bb6124a694b396481e6c/1520876408381/test_barbro.png TESTIMONIALS - "it is really nice to feel good and be able to play golf at 79" About four years ago I ran into my old boss, Dr. Adelstein, and he asked how I was getting along. I told him that I was doing pretty good for my age, but had been having trouble with arthritis in my fingers and neck and had had some steroid injections in my thumbs. He suggested that I try bean spout juice, that he believed it might help. I have now been on mung bean sprouts for four years. I juice them and mix them with v-8 juice every morning and it has really made a difference. My arthritis is gone completely and I feel GOOD. I have convinced my two daughters to take it, of course I have to juice it for them… It makes your skin look nicer and your hair and nails grow thicker. It also keeps me regular, which is a great plus. It doesn’t do much for wrinkles… I also told my golf partner about bean sprouts - she had a lot of back problems and was having cortisone injections. She has been on bean sprouts for two years now and she has no more problems with her back and the arthritis in her hands is gone. What can I say, it is really nice to feel good and be able to play golf at 79 years old.
