The Tale of the Turnip

Once upon a time, there lived an old man and an old woman. The old man planted a turnip, and it grew very, very large. When it was time to pull the turnip out, the old man tugged and tugged, but he couldn't pull it out. He called the old woman, the old woman held onto the old man, and they both tugged and tugged, but they still couldn't pull it out. They called their granddaughter, the granddaughter held onto the old woman, the old woman held onto the old man, and they all tugged and tugged, but they still couldn't pull it out. They called the dog, the dog held onto the granddaughter, the granddaughter held onto the old woman, the old woman held onto the old man, and they all tugged and tugged, but they still couldn't pull it out. They called the cat, the cat held onto the dog, the dog held onto the granddaughter, the granddaughter held onto the old woman, the old woman held onto the old man, and they all tugged and tugged, but they still couldn't pull it out. They called the mouse, the mouse held onto the cat, the cat held onto the dog, the dog held onto the granddaughter, the granddaughter held onto the old woman, the old woman held onto the old man, and they all tugged and tugged, and finally, they pulled the turnip out!

But what happens next? The turnip is large and tasty, but what if you try it at an early stage? And so, the old man and the old woman had a new kind of microgreens on their table — young turnip sprouts.

Alfalfa and clover, that is, lucerne and clover, are the ancestors of all plants, the most important pioneer plants. These microgreens have numerous beneficial properties both together and separately.

Lucerne, known as alfalfa, is rich in vitamins A, C, E, and K, as well as minerals like calcium and magnesium. It helps improve digestion, strengthens the immune system, and supports bone health.

Clover is also packed with nutrients, including vitamins C and K, as well as important antioxidants. Clover is known for its ability to improve circulation and support cardiovascular health.

A Micro life in a micro world day by day

01/04/2023

Different types of microgreens will give you different vitamins, minerals and nutrients. But, in general, microgreens are a great source of vitamin A, E, C and K, and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, iron, selenium and zinc. They also come packed with phytonutrients and antioxidants that protect against certain diseases, support your immune system and help keep your gut microbiome healthy.

The nutrients in microgreens are more concentrated than in their fully grown counterparts:

A cup of red cabbage microgreens has three times more folate than mature red cabbage.
A cup of arugula microgreens has 100% more vitamin A than arugula.
Radish microgreens have double the amount of calcium and are higher in omega 3s than radishes.
Compared to broccoli, broccoli microgreens have a higher content of the antioxidant sulforaphane, which helps lower fasting blood glucose levels and can protect against heart disease and cancer.
Consuming the recommended daily intake of two to three cups of vegetables per day can provide the same nutrients and benefits as microgreens and may be more practical.
