- Lettuce is loaded with antioxidants and phenols, much moreso than their mature greens.
- Sunflower sprouts are comprised of 24-30% protein.
- Cilantro microgreens have three times as much beta carotene.
- Radish and Amaranth, alongside cabbage, contain the highest elevated levels of vitamin E, C, and K amongst microgreens.
