Microgreens

While refered to as an ancient grain, Amaranth is more closely related to beets and isn't truly a grain at all.  Given to us by the pre-Columbian Aztecs it is a protein powerhouse packed with beta carotene thiamine, niacin, calcium, potassium, iron, manganese, zinc, and copper, and its leaves are a good source of vitamins A and C and folate.

These boldly flavored micros are abundant in essential amino acids, polyunsaturated fats, fiber, minerals, antioxidants and protein.

These microgreens are a little sweet and are an excellent source of these three protective agents folate, antioxidants and carotene. 

Broccoli is high in sulforaphane. 

Sulforaphane is a powerful medicine! 

It reduces inflammation, may help prevent cancer (it is well studied for its use against breast and prostate cancer) It boosts liver detoxification and increases glutathione. It improves cardiovascular health, improves autism, has positive affect on the gut microbiome and is full of antioxidants.
