Abstract

ABSTRACTThis study aimed to review the national and international literature on the benefits of sprouted wheat as an alternative source of vitamin B12. Since it is an inexpensive food and easily accessible worldwide, this could be better used in nutritional therapies in conjunction with conventional treatment to optimize its effects and shorten the rehabilitation of the patient’s immune system during chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Given the general deficiency of food in the world, especially those with good quality protein, it is interesting to research procedures that could improve the nutritional value of2 foods available. The sprouted wheat is a food that could be better used in therapeutic diets, because besides being an affordable and low cost food, is great source of B vitamins, especially vitamin B12, containing 4.8 micrograms of B12 per gram of germinated wheat (19). (The sprouted wheat still have significant concentrations apigenin and flavonoids, substances also found in fruits and vegetables, and which have an important role in inhibiting cancer cells). We will also present a program of nutrition and physical activity to support the reversal and remission of cancer.
