I'm not sure if I'm adding information that's already been provided, but here it is anyway:
According to Wiki article as sprouts develop there is an increase in protein quality, crude fiber content, essential fatty acids and vitamin content, as well as mineral chelation.
Crude Protein & fiber changes
Original seed 12.7% 5.4%
Day 1 12.7% 5.6%
Day 2 13.0% 5.9%
Day 3 13.6% 5.8%
Day 4 13.4% 7.4%
Day 5 13.9% 9.7%
Day 6 14.0% 10.8%
Day 7 15.5% 14.1%
These are the main data points from the article I found. It sounds like a win/win, and it's easy to boot.
