What Is Microgreen And Its Benefits

A microgreen is the young shoots of vegetable plants and herbs. Little greens are grown in specially created conditions. Sprouts contain an increased amount of nutrients, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, etc. This is explained by the fact that they are only at the start of their development and use the seed’s nutrient supply to the maximum. Eating microgreens in food saturates us with vitamins, gives us energy, and cleanse the body.
