Nutrition Power Of Micro Greens
Microgreens offer a superior method for obtaining micronutrients compared to isolated supplement capsules because they are consumed in a whole-food matrix. This natural synergy, complete with fiber, cofactors, and enzymes, ensures 4 to 40 times higher concentration of essential vitamins and minerals is absorbed and utilized by the body with remarkable efficiency (superior bioavailability). While capsules may deliver a high dose of a single, isolated nutrient, fresh microgreens provide a broad spectrum of potent antioxidants and compounds that work together to deliver comprehensive, natural, and highly effective nutritional power.
