Grey Sugar Pea Shoots Microgreens

These Microgreens lend a tender crispness to any dish whether served raw or cooked.

And let me tell you, they are equally delicious both ways. During warm months, toss some pea shoots in a salad or a wrap (or just grab a handful out of the fridge to munch) and when you’re in the mood for cooked food add them into a vegetable stir fry for a little brightness.

Their nutrition values include beta-carotene – which our bodies convert into vitamin A, vitamin C, folate–which is an essential building block for the human body, and fiber.

Pea Microgreens are high in antioxidants and carotene.

It is alike garlic, helps our body to fight against free radical damages which may induce cancer related diseases.

We have received an article regarding Microgreens which we wanted to share:

The benefits of microgreens in your diet

If you have already heard about microgreens, you will know that every day more people consume it because of its high nutritional value. Here we reveal to you what are the benefits of adding microgreens to your meals.

What are microgreens?

To get acquainted with this lifestyle, you must first know what microgreens are, as it will be a fundamental part of changing your vision.

Microgreens are young and very small vegetables that are carefully harvested to preserve their flavors and their great concentration of nutrients. These small microplants can be consumed in countless recipes.

Unlike sprouts, microgreens grow in soil and are harvested within 14 days to be eaten.

Benefits of microgreens

Many people are not aware of what they consume daily, they tend to choose the first thing they see, totally unaware of their ingredients or how these products were harvested, most of these people frequently suffer from various diseases, but how important is diet with the diseases they suffer from?
Most of the diseases that we suffer today are usually closely linked to the lifestyle and diet that we lead, the more exposure to a busy life, full of stress and junk food, the more diseases we develop. Microgreens
are a great option if you are looking to make the leap to a healthier life.

And you wonder why eat microgreens?

Microgreens are a superfood that greatly benefit your physical and mental health, they are full of polyphenols and antioxidants.
In addition, they reduce the possibility of developing serious diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure or heart disease.
They have a high concentration of enzymes that benefit the intestinal flora.

Did we already mention all the vitamins? Microgreens are sources of essential vitamins for our body such as vitamin A, E, K and C, which help strengthen the defenses.

How to eat microgreens?

There are many ways to include microgreens in our meals, raw or mixed. Here are some tips that can help you if you are thinking of starting to use microvegetables.
Include salads in all your meals.

This helps you begin to incorporate microvegetables, in a varied menu of salads at each meal, there are many mixtures that you can make.

Make smoothies. Smoothies with microgreens, fruits, seeds, and natural fats are ideal to start any day, in addition, a smoothie will greatly benefit you to improve your health.

Also, mix them in meals, pizzas, pastas, soups, sandwiches, there are many options.

As an added fact, but, no less wonderful, is that some studies have shown that microvegetables contain more levels of nutrients compared to mature vegetables.

Most microgreens are between 1-4 inches tall (2.5cm -10cm) tall when they’re harvested.
They’re small, but microgreens are packed with a high concentration of nutrients and some varieties also offer an intense flavor.

They’re also a lot more tender. If you think of baby spinach compared to fully grown spinach, you can imagine that same level of texture difference between baby spinach and spinach microgreens.

Don’t confuse microgreens with sprouts. Sprouts are seeds that have just been soaked in water long enough to germinate. With sprouts you eat the entire thing, including the root, and they haven’t produced their first true set of leaves yet.

HydroRoot produce is grown in a very different and unique method with no soil or dirt contact; where nutrient based water is ran under the roots, and with the moisture in between, it attracts the roots into the nutrient based water for optimum quality nutrient growth. This growing activity occurs indoors in a very sanitized, clean and protected environment resulting in Clean, Healthy & Highly Nutritious produce all year round.

It took a few years of research and testing of different seed types, nutrients, grow methods and systems to result in our high quality microgreens harvests.

Conclusion: Cost-effective, Clean, Environment Friendly, Reliable and Sustainaible throughout the whole year, even with our Alberta's Winter Season.

From great restaurants to households, we supply all, hence serving our local communities across Calgary & beyond.

Fitness Enthusiasts

Quite simply, athletes need more nutrients than less-active people. They demand more from their bodies than even average fitness buffs and so must compensate with the right nutrients from foods or supplements to keep performance - and recovery - at its peak.

The more intense the exercise or sport, the greater the body's nutrient needs. Athletes who participate in endurance sports - those that involve more than one hour of consistent activity - have specific needs because of what they demand from their bodies. For example, athletes lose more electrolytes, such as magnesium, potassium and sodium, through perspiration and must diligently replace them. The wear and tear of intense activity may necessitate increased intake of antioxidants such as vitamin E, which can help protect muscle cells from oxidative damage. Since muscle-tissue breakdown is common during intense exercise, athletes also need more proteins to repair the tissues.

To keep their bodies performing optimally, endurance athletes should be familiar with 10 important nutrients and our Microgreens are packed with nutrients and vitamins. To find out more visit us today at hydroroot.ca.

Our Varieties of indoor grown microgreens. Microgreens have a place in our homes.

While the total contribution to nutrient intake from microgreens is likely to be small, they do potentially have a place in our homes. There is some evidence growing vegetables particularly in schools can help encourage children to eat more vegetables and a more varied diet. So, growing microgreens and moving beyond simple mustard and cress could help inspire the next generation to eat more healthily.

From a culinary perspective, many of the microgreens are herbs, and the leafy vegetable varieties can have different flavours when small. These may be sweeter or more peppery and can add new flavours to lift recipes not just visually but with respect to taste too. It could even potentially have a health side effect as the fascinating flavours from these small plants could reduce the desire to add additional seasoning, having an indirect health benefit.

Microgreens may be one of the latest in a long list of food trends and may have some mathematical merit in terms of the foods being a little richer in nutrients. But their true value is more than likely to relate to growing your own vegetables. In small way, this can make us feel more attached to our food supply.

Being attached to our food supply and looking beyond the “superfood” hype and nutrient levels, these little veggies take an important place in our kitchen, reminding us where our food comes from and encouraging us, especially younger ones, to try new foods and flavours.

This attachment to food may even encourage us to choose to eat more healthily overall.

s smaller better?

A US study looked at nutrient levels of 25 different microgreens and compared them to published information on full-sized leafy vegetables and herbs.

Nutrient levels in different microgreens varied. But they typically had higher levels per gram of vitamin C, vitamin E and carotenoids (plant compounds, some used to make vitamin A and others help maintain eye health) than mature crops.

So, could these nutritionally “super charged” leaves be a quick way to improve our diet?

Microgreens are clearly more nutrient dense, meaning typically they are more concentrated sources of vitamins and minerals. And like the full sized versions, microgreens are equally low in energy (about 120kJ or 29kcal per 100g based on US data). No Australian analysis of microgreens is currently available.

But can we afford to eat enough of them to make a difference? For example, micro red cabbage contains a mighty 103mg of vitamin C per 100g compared to full sized red cabbage at 69mg for the same amount. Yet the cost difference means you could buy half a regular cabbage for the price of a small pot of micro version.

The Australian Guide to Healthy Eating recommends about 75g or a cup of leafy vegetables as a serve and we should aim to eat at least five serves of vegetables a day. So, an attractive garnish of microgreens is likely to either result in a hole in your wallet or you, like so many Australians, would fall short of the recommended daily five serves of vegetables as you probably couldn’t eat enough of them.

Although rich in nutrients, perhaps the “vegetable confetti” name reveals the likely small contribution they make to total vegetable and nutrient intake. hydroroot.ca

Food Is Our Medicine

Nutrient-dense foods, or "superfoods," include lean proteins, healthy carbohydrates, and fats essential
to our health. Superfoods are a rich source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants relative to the amount of calories that they contain.

Antioxidants are shown to reduce inflammation in our body helping us fight disease and illness.2 Inflammation is said to be the leading cause of many diseases. Powerful antioxidants in leafy greens and vegetables, for example, help protect out cells from potential free radical damage.

Some superfoods contain compounds that increase our metabolism for more efficient fat burning. Red peppers contain a molecule called capsaicin shown to enhance the rate we burn body fat.

The Food we eat!

The food we eat plays a vital role in how we look and feel. Regular exercise is important but according to research, nutrition has the largest impact on our fitness.1 Using food as our medicine has become a popular theme for health improvement.

The trend is now to focus on healthy food intake as a primary fitness goal. When healthy eating habits become a lifestyle, we are healthier and happier. ​Eating right can help us reduce body fat, lose a few pounds, feel more confident, and reduce our risk of illness.

Frequent studies are indicating healthy food intake as the most important part of our fitness programs. Some physicians are teaching healthy eating habits and lifestyles as a way to improve overall health by reducing obesity and related disease.
