MICROGREEN CHEAT SHEET

Healthy Blood Pressure - (Beets/Arugula/Broccoli)

For high blood pressure, the best microgreens are those rich in nitrates that help relax and dilate blood vessels and improve flow. Exceptionally rich in potassium and antioxidants, they can help balance sodium and reduce inflammation while combating plaque buildup.


Help Manage Type 2 Diabetes - (Broccoli/Fenugreek/Red Cabbage)

People with diabetes, their cells don’t remove sugar (glucose) from their blood like they’re supposed to but microgreens can help with regulating blood sugar. Research shows that microgreens may improve insulin resistance so sugar leaves the blood to enter cells and may improve how well cells take in sugar by 25% to 44%.


Improved Thinking and Reasoning
– (Broccoli/Radish/Chive/Red Cabbage)

Polyphenols, plant-based substances with antioxidant properties, have been scientifically shown that they may improve how well you think and reason (cognition) and even prevent or delay the beginning of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s disease.


Lowered Risk of Heart Disease – (Broccoli/Cabbage/Chives/Beets)

Polyphenols are also linked to a lower risk of heart disease. Studies show that when these microgreens were added to a high-fat diet, they reduce body weight, triglycerides and LDL (bad) cholesterol — all risk factors for heart disease.


Cancer Prevention - (Broccoli/Cabbage/Sunflower/Peas)

Brassicaceae microgreens contain Sulforaphane. One of Sulforaphane’s many health benefits is cancer prevention. Research suggests that they may help prevent, block or possibly reverse cancer growth and can be especially useful in preventing colon cancer.


Post Work-out / Inflammation - (Broccoli/Sunflower/Peas)

A good choice for post workout as they are high in amino acids and Polyphenols. Also aids in the repair of tissue and help prevent inflammation.


Protect Vision - (Broccoli/Cilantro)

Lutein is a powerful antioxidant that has shown to be very beneficial for eye health in older adults and may improve or even prevent age-related macular disease.


Reduced Risk of Anemia - (Arugula/Broccoli/Red Cabbage)

Iron deficiency is common and the leading cause of anemia worldwide. Many microgreens are rich in iron.

Allergy Relief - (Cantaloupe/Radish/Pea)

DAO (Diamine Oxidase)is an enzyme found in Peas that helps break down histamine in your body easing uncomfortable symptoms such as nasal congestion, itchy skin, headaches, and sneezing. Radish and Cantaloupe (both rich in vitamin C, a known histamine blocker) can further help knock out most common allergies.


Better Sleep / Mood Swings - (Arugula/Sunflower/Peas/Red Cabbage)

High in magnesium and tryptophan, a well paired nutrient/amino acid combo the body uses to create serotonin and melatonin, which regulate mood and the sleep-wake cycle. Also contain B vitamins and iron, which support brain oxygenation, and flavonoids that have a calming effect and potentially mild sedative properties, which could help reduce tension and improve sleep quality.


Menopause Symptom Relief – (Fenugreek/Alfalfa/Broccoli/Clover)
These microgreens can help control hormonal imbalances during menopause by providing phytoestrogens, calcium, and detoxifying compounds like sulforaphane. These nutrients help balance hormones, alleviate symptoms such as hot flashes and mood swings, support bone health, and aid liver function, offering natural nutritional support for estrogen shifts.

OUR MISSION

Early in our mission to bring fresh microgreens to market, we were confronted with a disturbing reality:

EATING HEALTHY IS WAY TOO EXPENSIVE.

In fact, it's a luxury most people can’t afford. It shouldn’t be a privilege, but it is.

After 27 years in healthcare, our lead horticulturist realized that his patients weren’t suffering because of bad luck; they were suffering from an inherent flaw in personal healthcare—a broken food system.

This sad, dysfunctional way of feeding people in this country is the root of this crisis. Obesity, heart disease, and high blood pressure are just some of the physical prices you pay for a food system that prioritizes "cheap" over "healthy."

An even sadder truth is that most people will never even try to change. Why? Because they are convinced that healthier food choices are way too costly and far too inconvenient to maintain.

We have a solution.

We’ve captured the power of 100% freeze-dried microgreens, packing up to 40x the nutrition of standard vegetables into a single serving.

No fillers. No additives. No complicated prep.

And all for about $1.50 a day.

At SHE Urban Farms, we feel no one should be priced out of the health they deserve, and we’re committed to making wellness accessible for everyone.

So we ask you... what if you could bridge the nutritional gap without the stress or the high cost?

Because you can.

It’s the simplest way to reclaim your health and as easy as drinking a glass of water; just add it and go.

Our Mission: To end "Health Privilege."

We believe being healthy by choice belongs to everyone, not just those who can afford the organic aisle. By freeze-drying 100% pure microgreens, we’ve made the world’s most nutrient-dense food accessible, affordable, and easy.

Because every body deserves to

Fast Answers to Questions

FAQ

What are microgreens?

Microgreens are nutrient-dense "seedling" versions of vegetables and herbs, typically harvested 7–14 days after germination when they reach 1–3 inches in height They are considered a functional food or "superfood" because they offer significantly higher concentrations of vitamins and minerals compared to their mature counterparts.

Do I have to wash my microgreens before eating?

If your microgreens come from a trusted supplier who follows strict hygiene standards, the risk of contamination is low.

Our microgreens are grown hydroponically indoors using clean coco coir fiber and not in soil. They are harvested and packaged under controlled, sanitary conditions, making them much cleaner than other produce from the start.

If you still feel you must wash them, rinse them lightly and pat dry, but know they will spoil much faster if not eaten immediately.

How do I eat this? Is it like a salad?


"This is actually the most common question we get. You can eat it like a salad, but it can be so much more! The best way to add our microgreens or freeze-dried powders to your diet is to use them as a raw, nutrient-dense garnish or base for meals like avocado toast, sandwiches, or your favorite omelet. You can also add them to smoothies to maximize their nutritional value. Sprinkle them onto warm dishes for extra color and flavor—think soups, steak, pasta, pizza, and more—right before serving, to prevent wilting."

What is the shelf life on my fresh microgreens vs their powdered form?

Our microgreens typically have a shelf life of 7–10 days when stored properly in the refrigerator, though some of our hardier varieties have been known to last up to three weeks. Store them dry in an air-tight container or clamshell, ideally at 34–40°F. For maximum freshness, replace or add a paper towel to absorb excess moisture.

As for our powders, our freeze-dried microgreens are highly stable, boasting an unopened shelf life of up to 25 years. Once opened, the powder typically remains fresh for up to one year, provided it is stored in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and sealed tightly after each use.


Do I really need a powdered vegetable supplement?

The quick answer is No...but with today's hectic lifestyles, many people find it very difficult to incorporate healthy food additions into their daily meal plans. Squeezing one of our powders into your busy schedule is as simple as drinking a glass of water. We are all lacking nutrients in one way or another and this is a quick-n-easy fix for resolving those deficiencies.
