What are Microgreens?
Microgreens are the earliest stage of a vegetable plant’s development, after the sprouting stage. They are “living foods” – purposefully utilized in their most nutritious and delicious state.
Why are Microgreens Healthier Than Regular Greens?
To start, microgreens nutrient contents are more concentrated. The vitamin and antioxidant levels are up to 40X higher. Higher levels of macro minerals- calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and potassium. They’re richer in micro minerals such as iron, zinc and copper. They’re also richer in B vitamins, essential amino acids, and folate to name some.
