Sprouted Seeds - a Superfood!
Flax, lentils, broccoli and other seeds and legumes are packed with nutrients and potential energy – enough to grow into a tall plant, just as an acorn grows into an oak tree. The seed is the powerhouse behind a plant’s growth and development. To preserve it, nature locks in the nutrients with a protective coating designed to keep it intact until the seed is germinated (planted in moist soil or water) and ready to grow and mature. Only a fraction of the nutrients in ungerminated seeds may be digested and absorbed by the body. But sprouting unlocks nature’s protective coating — boosting the bio-available nutrients in our pet food to unheard of levels.
Sprouted seeds have been “awakened” and are beginning the physical transformation from their dormant seed state to living, breathing plants. In the first 24 hours of germination, the nutrients in the sprouted seeds can multiply by an average of 14 times; antioxidants can multiply by 10,000 times; and enzymes & probiotics flourish by the millions & billions. Sprouting also limits gluten and glycemic levels and transforms carbohydrates into highly digestible phytonutrient components.
Flora4’s unique recipe uses only freshly sprouted USDA Organic Certified seeds.
Germination activates “sleeping” enzymes, bringing the seeds to life with increased vitamins, minerals and other nutrients, while neutralizing anti-nutrients, such as phytic acid, which will otherwise hinder nutrient absorption.
So exactly what happens and how does it help your dog or cat?
Sprouting defuses anti-nutrients, such as phytic acid, which will otherwise stop your pet from absorbing sufficient nutrition. Phytic acid is a plant fiber molecule that bonds with minerals (like iron, zinc, magnesium and calcium) in the digestive tract so they pass through the body, robbing your pet of vital nutrients. These inhibitors can only be decreased through germination — not by milling or grinding.
Sprouting makes seeds and legumes more nourishing by boosting available vitamins, minerals, amino acids and other nutrients.
Sprouting activates sleeping enzymes, and increases their activity by up to 6 times, transforming complex carbohydrates and proteins into simpler forms to make nutrients more digestible and easier to absorb.
Here are 8 more things sprouted seeds can do for your pet:
Increase antioxidants by up to 9,600% to help your pet tackle cancer-causing free radicals – When seeds sprout, there is a significant increase in vitamins, especially natural antioxidants like Vitamin C and E, particularly with flaxseed. These antioxidants fight free radicals and also help preserve food by protecting polyunsaturated fats from oxidation.
Sprouted flaxseeds in particular have very high levels of Omega-3 fatty acids, which have been shown to reduce the effects of arthritis and offer other health benefits to dogs – The Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association published a series of studies in early 2010, on the proven benefits of food with high concentrations of Omega-3 fatty acids for dogs with osteoarthritis.
Prevent stomach upset and reduce intestinal gas – Sprouting activates plant enzymes to supplement pancreatic enzymes produced by the body. This can alleviate stress on the pancreas, reduce intestinal gas and improve overall digestive function over time.
Encourage probiotics or “good bacteria” growth to help keep your pet’s digestive tract clean and healthy – Sprouted seeds, especially flaxseed, are excellent sources of strong, naturally-occurring probiotics. Our laboratory testing has shown that these natural probiotics have a very high survival rate through our short-cycle baking/drying process, because they stay in the nurturing comfort of their native host.
Increase soluble fiber, while reducing insoluble fiber to help toxins leave your pet’s body more efficiently – Sprouting reduces insoluble fiber by as much as 50% and increases in the ratio of soluble to insoluble fiber by as much as 30%. When soluble fiber flows through the arteries, it starts binding with cholesterol and other toxins to help clean the body.
Provide less carbohydrates and “empty” calories – to maintain optimal condition.
Lower gluten and have lower glycemic levels — making them ideal for pets with blood sugar issues and diabetes – Sprouted seeds have lower glycemic levels because portions of their carbohydrates are used up in the germination process. Recent scientific studies performed by Mortec Labs indicate that Carna4 has a glycemic index of 41-42. For details, check out the Mortec Labs reports here:

Flora4 Usages
You can use Flora4 Original or Greens Plus whenever your pet needs supplemental enzymes and probiotics for a wide range of issues:
During and after treatment with antibiotics re-seed the gut
To correct intermittent diarrhea, constipation, gas and soft stools
To aid digestion when transitioning from one diet to another for the first time
For immune support (sprouted broccoli is great for this!)
Relieve itchy skin, dry coat, yeasty ears
When traveling or when moving to new living arrangements which my be stressful for your pet
Eliminating cat hairballs
You can add Flora4 to every meal to supply all your animal’s non-meat nutritional requirements. If you already mix foods like tripe, green leafy and root vegetables into your dog or cat’s diet, you can use Flora4 to “fill in the gaps”. That way, you can be sure that you’re not missing any essential vitamins and minerals with your homemade recipes.
Both formulas of Flora4 are extremely versatile. They can be sprinkled onto raw, home-cooked or commercial kibble to boost nutrition and complete the diet or raise the nutrition. If your main pet food contains vitamin/mineral additives, then you should consider supplementing the diet with Flora4 to make sure your pet is getting really bio-available nutrients from food, not just synthetics. Flora4 is a convenient whole food supplement — no need to use bottled synthetic products again!
Flora4 Original and Greens Plus contain guaranteed levels of live probiotics (18 billion cfu/kg) and enzymes (1 million U/kg); effective doses of 26 essential vitamins & minerals; and high levels of Omega 6 & 3 fatty acids – all from raw food – that combine to provide a variety of health benefits for dogs and cats.
