Ezekiel Bread History
Ezekiel bread in it’s earliest form can be found in the Holy Bible in the book of Ezekiel chapter 4, verse 9 which says: “Also take wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and spelt, and put them into one vessel and make bread of them.” (Amplified Bible) In this verse the prophet Ezekiel is told by God to make bread in a certain way and then he lives on water and this bread for 390 days while he resides in the desert.

In 1973, a woman by the name of Carol Levergood was impressed by God to go on a fast for 40 days and pray for Israel. She felt she should eat only the bread described in the book of Ezekiel so she wrote down the grains and beans listed in the scripture and then asked God to show her the correct proportions. In 1981 she wrote a book entitled “God’s Recipe” (out of print) about her experiences.

Nutritional Value of Sprouted Grain Ezekiel Bread
“We discovered when these six grains and legumes are sprouted and combined, an amazing thing happens. A complete protein is created that closely parallels the protein found in milk and eggs. In fact, the protein quality is so high, that it is 84.3% as efficient as the highest recognized source of protein, containing all 9 essential amino acids. There are 18 amino acids present in this unique bread – from all vegetable sources – naturally balanced in nature.” (From FoodforLife.com)
