All protein values in the above list are per weight. For instance dried fish flaks are valued @ 76% protein while fresh fish (water included) is valued at only 28% That is almost a 300% difference.
The average human body is 65% water, the same as fresh fish or liver. After all the other minerals are deducted from your body mass there is about 75% protein remaining in your dried out body, again about the same as in fresh fish verses the protein in dried fish. The form of the protein changed (from wet to dry) but the total amount of protein remained constant.
"The First Law of Matter says that "Matter can neither be created nor can matter be destroyed but that all matter can be changed from one form into another." Your hens eat, drink, and breath; chicken feed, oyster shells, oxygen and water, then change the form of this matter (hopefully) into grade A large eggs. The grains used for sprouts were grown from minerals in the soil, water, CO2, and sunlight but once harvested the food energy, mineral, and vitamin content in the grain is fixed or finite and it can neither be increased nor diminished.
By awaking the germ of life in the grain you are forcing the seed to sprout and this causes the grain to change its form into a less notorious but more abundant form called roots, stems, and leaves. However the total amount of food nutrition remains constant. Except, depending on how much or how often that the grain was washed in the sprouting process, major portions of the food nutrients may have leached out and gone down the drain. Again matter (protein) was neither created nor was matter destroyed, but in this case part of this food nutrition (matter) became sewage and another part was changed into an indigestible form (to a chicken) called cellulose. If anyone can construct a new paradigm refuting almost 300 years of scientific thought and learning on this subject by all means lay the proof on me, I am open to change as much as the next person.
