While researching these topics did not give me any final information or answer on this topic, I tested a few things:

-------------------------------

• I tried to eat again some sprouts alone 2 days after feeling that discomfort - The sprouts are now creating lots of roots and are about 10 days into the sprouting process.

While the sprouts are now harder and more fiberish, they still seem to be ok to eat - I don't smell or taste anything which seems disagreable - When trying the raw kidney beans sprouts (which are toxic) the smell and feeling when eating them is an instant turn off - I tried them twice and both times the first impression + after affect was bad.

Withese 10 days sprouts, even though, they are more chewy and less crunchy, they still seem very much ok.

----------------

• Spinach

I tried again these thick water filled leaves and they are terrible - It feels absolutely not like spinach. It does not tase anything bad. It simply feels like one is water filled leaves which is a very strange feeling when you are expecting spinach.

So, yes, this could have played a role in the discomfort I felt even though at first impression all you seem to tates is simply more water.

At taste, I don't detect anything really bad - I need to be more careful and simply check the quality of the spinach I buy

This feels like buying bad quality fruit or vegetables - while they might still be ok to eat - the original taste and properties are totally gone - this is related with probably bad storage, freezing or other bad handling from producers.

---------

Side note: For that specific spinach, the first impression is that this spinach has been frozen (maybe twice or multiple times) this could be an unvoluntary bad handling from the producer.

However, the bad leaves have been clearly mixed with good leaves. 25% of the bag is actually good quality and looks pretty much how it should normally be.

This means that the bad leaves have been voluntarily mixed with good leaves for deception.

The bad leaves might be the result of an unvoluntary mishandling and they then tried to cover their mistake rather than dumping that stock of useless spinach leaves.

There is another theory though: this could as well be a voluntary practice aimed at increasing the weight of the spinach and therefore the profit.

These thick leaves filled with water weight probably 4 times more per leaf than the healthy leaves. This happens because they are much thicker and filled with water.

This could be just a one time mistake or repeated deceptive practice by some not so conscious profit driven producers...

Some further research could definitely unveil what truly happened with that spinach

-------------------------

• Coconut cream

two days later, the coconut cream box is now fermented - It has been opened for 5 to 7 days not sure exactly.

When tasting a bit of it today, it's totally off now!

If I would drink that now, I don't think this would feel good.

-------------------------

Another possible element could be food combination, for instance coconut cream almost off + very ripe melon + frozen water filled spinach leaves could altogether lead to the effect I experienced.

-------------------------

Conclusions:

• Consume coconut cream within 2 to 3 days after opening (get 1/2 liter instead of liter packages)
• Check spinach for quality
• Sprouts are okay to eat even when you eat them 10 days or more after starting the sprouting - They are simply more chewy, less crunchy

-------------------------

That's it for now!

Do sprouts become toxic 6+ to 10+ days after srpouting?

I researched that question and found nothing! I did not see a simply web page or post mentioning this

I tasted some of these sprouts (chick peas, lentils, etc) 10 good days after starting to sprout

They are now growing real root trees and have lots of green.

They seemed perfectly ok to eat even though they are slightly harder, more chewy and less crunchy.

They seem perfectly ok to me.

Reheating spinach

Reheating spinach leftovers may cause the formation of poisonous compounds by certain bacteria that thrive on prepared nitrate-rich foods, such as spinach and many other green vegetables. These bacteria can convert the nitrates into nitrites, which may be especially harmful to infants younger than six months. The nitrate-converting enzymes produced by the bacteria can convert even more at elevated temperatures during the second heating. For older children and adults, small concentrations of nitrites are harmless, although formation of nitrosamine compounds from the nitrites could be of concern for adults as well.

-------------------

Yesterday, I preparared a smoothie and within an hour of drinking it, felt strong discomfort.

A few hours laters, the reaction was even stronger and the negative effects (strong stomach discomfort + lack of desire to eat anything else) lasting until 24 hours later.

The reaction was very similar to what I had when I ate sprouted kidney beans which I hear later are toxic - They contain an enzyme inhibitor which makes them impossible to digest.

What was the cause?

By narrowing the ingredients in the the smoothie, I concluded that this could have been caused by 3 possible sources:

------------------------------

• Multiple times frozen spinach? - In the bag of fresh wild spinach I got, probably 75% of the leaves look very unusual - thick, they break easily and when pressed between my fingers, they appear to be full of water.

This consistency is not something I observed before - 25% of the spinach leafs are normal and thin like usual

My guess is that a frozen stock of spinach has been mixed with the fresh ones...

It's possible that this frozen (even frozen multiple times spinach leaves) becomes toxic for a reason or another.

I heard that for instance frozen spinach (the one you buy in supermarkets) can't be heated twice.

This could be similar...

This is just a guess...

I need to research this further

------------------

• Sprouts 6+ days old

The day before, I had sprouts and they were fine - no negative reaction.

The thing that could happen is that the sprouts could develop some toxic substance exactly after 6 days for instance.

I noticed for instance that the chick peas started growing extra small side roots at this time.

Do sprouts (or some of them) develop some form of inhibitor or toxic substance after a few days?

I recall hearing that some roots (not sure what plant anymore) will develop toxic substance to stop them from being eaten so that the plant has much greater chances of survival.

This needs to be researched...

---------------

• coco cream - off!

The package of coco's cream I used has been open now for around 4 days - The last package I used stayed open for 7 days and I did not see it going off - I used in slads dressing and smoothies and it was fine...

To be checked...
