How to Protect Yourself From the Coronavirus

The coronavirus is spreading like wildfire throughout the world. By now, we've all implemented social distancing which has been making everything feel so awkward. This is the new normal until this virus is under control.

With that said, besides implementing social distancing, washing your hands all day and not touching your face, what can you do to protect yourself from contracting this very contagious virus? Microgreens can activate the Nrf2 Pathway in our bodies to produce powerful antioxidants within our cells. These antioxidants decrease cell damage which in turn can help fight off disease, bacteria and viruses. The compound responsible for this Nrf2 activation is called Sulforaphane and is found in all cruciferous vegetables. But the kicker here is clinical studies have shown that microgreens contain up to 100x more sulforaphane that their mature counterparts. Plus, microgreens have been proven to contain up to 40x more nutrients than their adult counterparts as well. As an example, 28 grams of broccoli microgreens equals 600 grams of mature broccoli. That's not a typo! Under normal circumstances, adding microgreens to your daily diet is a smart move. Now that we're facing this pandemic head-on, I feel it's a no brainer.

We will overcome the Coronavirus Pandemic and become a stronger nation!

We currently grow 18 varieties of microgreens for retail customers, as well as restaurants, caterers and country clubs. Consumer demand for microgreens over the last week has increased exponentially.

Our dedicated team deliver orders. Basically what that means is you're getting farm to table microgreens with no middleman. Your order will be boxed up at our grow facility and driven to your location.

With all of that said, I do believe my microgreens are the healthiest and most potent microgreens you can purchase here on Long Island. I filter my water 6x before feeding it to my microgreens throughout their growth. This 6-stage filtration and remineralization process removes 99% of the contaminants found in our tap water. Therefore, you're getting a very PURE microgreen. Plus, no fertilizers or pesticides are used, and I grow hydroponically so you don't have to worry about any contaminated soil. You’re getting pure living microgreens that you cut and plate when needed which retains 100% of the beneficial nutrients that mother nature intended them to have.
