KEYS NATIVE BRINGS MICROGREEN BUSINESS TO LOCAL DINING SCENE
Microgreens are powerfully potent with incredible health benefits. A little goes a long way, as they are so nutrient-dense. Lindback also referred to them as “vegetable confetti.” Microgreens across the board have a high level of sulforaphane, which has been recognized to help fight cancer and is continuing to be researched.
“Average microgreens are about 40 times more nutrient-dense than the full-grown counterpart. An ounce of broccoli microgreens is equivalent to 4 pounds of broccoli. Cilantro has six times more beta-carotene,” Lindback said.
