There is a myth saying that alfalfa sprout is poisonous and can be harmful to your health. Due to the presence of lectin, a toxic compound, it functions to repel insects in the sprouting stage. The lectin concentration decreased in the older stages (microgreen). Also, the other compound in concern was an amino acid called canavanine. Click here to learn more.
