Beneficial substances in the composition

Beets are known for their iron content — but in microgreen form, the concentration is even higher. Add to that a rich mix of natural vitamins and antioxidants, and you’ve got a true supergreen:

Iron — supports energy and healthy blood.
Vitamins A and C — boost immunity and promote glowing skin.
Potassium and magnesium — great for heart and nervous system support.
Folic acid — essential for cell growth and especially helpful during pregnancy.
Anthocyanins — natural pigments with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

And the best part? It’s all gluten-free, chemical-free, and grown by you — naturally.
