Vegetable microgreens: A superfood with potential health benefits

Urban Farm DB summary

Microgreens are a horticultural product cultivated from various vegetable, herb, and wild herb seeds, grown in diverse conditions including urban agricultural settings. They are noted for higher concentrations of bioactive elements compared to mature plants, but their health benefits are still under dispute. A major concern is their rapid deterioration and short shelf life, which can be partially resolved by methods like controlling storage temperature and atmospheric conditions.
