Microgreens and Sprouts - Vitality in Every Bite!
LoveGreensz delivers fresh, organic, nutritionally dense microgreens and sprouts to homes throughout the Durham Region.
What Are Microgreens and Sprouts?
- Microgreens and Sprouts are baby plants that are only a few days old when harvested and are up to 40x more nutritious than the mature plant. They are the most nutritionally dense food you can eat!
- Our bodies have adapted the mechanisms for seeking, digesting, absorbing and making use of the many micronutrients, proteins, vitamins, minerals and digestive co-factors needed to break down and make use of the nutrients held in plants.
- There is no better way to get the nutrients we need than from the natural foods we have evolved to consume - We are connected to the earth through the food we consume!
