Sprout, alfalfa, raw

A very fine, short sprout with a pale green stalk and fresh green tip. Uncooked.

The majority of nutrients including proximates, vitamins, and minerals were derived from a composite of 4 samples of alfalfa sprouts (1x Bi-Lo, 1x Foodland, 1x Coles and 1x Woolworths) purchased in Adelaide in 1995 (AGAL 1993/1994). Trace metals including As, Cd, Hg, Pb, Sb, Se, Sn and Zn were derived from 9 samples of alfalfa sprouts purchased nationally (NSW, NT, QLD, SA, TAS, VIC, SA) in 1998 (19th ATDS, 1998). Folate was derived from a composite of 5 purchases of alfalfa sprouts from Sydney suburbs (Iwatani et al. 2003). CHOL and Retinol values are imputed based on international literature.
