FAQ (frequently asked questions)
What are microgreens?
Microgreens are young edible fruits, vegetables, and herbs, harvested just after their first leaves (cotyledons) and stems develop, about 1-3 inches tall, offering concentrated flavors and nutrients like vitamins A, C, E, K, minerals, and antioxidants, often used as flavorful garnishes or additions to salads and sandwiches. They are distinct from sprouts (harvested earlier, roots included) and baby greens (larger).Â
What are the health benefits of microgreens?
They are nutrient-dense, offering concentrated vitamins (A, C, E, K), minerals, antioxidants, and phytonutrients which support heart health, boost immunity, aid digestion (fiber), fight inflammation, and may help manage blood sugar and cholesterol providing potent benefits in small packages with anti-cancer and anti-diabetic properties noted in research.
