Microgreen

FAQs

  • Microgreens and shoots are young seedlings of vegetables and herbs that are harvested after they begin to form leaves. Don't let their small size fool you! These plant babies are a superfood as they contain concentrated sources of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

  • Some of the chronic conditions microgreens can protect you from include:

    Heart Disease: polyphenols are a type of antioxidant linked to a decreased risk of heart disease, specifically because they can potentially lower inflammatory response and “bad” cholesterol (LDL) levels. 

    Cancer: Consuming higher levels of polyphenols and antioxidants could reduce your risk of developing certain types of cancer.

    Diabetes: Research shows that antioxidants improved insulin response and sugar metabolization by up to 44 percent. 

    Alzheimer’s Disease: increasing antioxidant intake could be linked to a reduced risk of Alzheimer’s disease.
