DELICIOUS WAYS TO ENJOY YOUR MICROGREENS
**Why They Taste So Good:**
Freeze-drying concentrates the natural flavors of microgreens, creating an intense, vibrant taste that dehydrated greens can't match. The cellular structure remains intact, so when rehydrated in your mouth or smoothie, they taste remarkably fresh.
FREEZE-DRIED vs. DEHYDRATED vs. FRESH
| Feature | Freeze-Dried | Dehydrated | Fresh |
|---------|--------------|------------|-------|
| **Nutrient Retention** | 95-97% | 40-60% | 100% (for 3-7 days) |
| **Shelf Life** | 25+ years | 1-2 years | 3-7 days |
| **Enzyme Activity** | Preserved | Destroyed | Active |
| **Rehydration** | Full texture recovery | Tough/chewy | N/A |
| **Heat Exposure** | None (cold process) | 95-165°F (damages nutrients) | N/A |
| **Vitamin C Retention** | 95%+ | 20-50% | 100% (degrades rapidly) |
| **Color & Flavor** | Vibrant, intense | Dull, muted | Bright (briefly) |
THE NUTRITIONAL SCIENCE
**Vitamins Preserved:**
- Vitamin C: 95-97% retention (vs. 20-50% in dehydrated)
- B-Vitamins: 90-95% retention (heat-sensitive, destroyed by dehydration)
- Vitamin A/Beta-Carotene: 85-90% retention
- Vitamin K: 95%+ retention (critical for bone health)
**Antioxidants Locked In:**
- Sulforaphane (broccoli): Remains bioavailable and stable
- Anthocyanins (red cabbage): Color and antioxidant power preserved
- Chlorophyll: Maintains deep green color and detox properties
**Enzymes Stay Active:**
Unlike heat-drying, freeze-drying preserves natural plant enzymes that support digestion and nutrient absorption when rehydrated in your body.

## WHY THIS MATTERS FOR YOUR HEALTH
**Maximum Nutrition Per Serving**
Just 5 grams (one sachet) of freeze-dried microgreens provides the nutrient equivalent of 1-2 cups of fresh microgreens.
**Bioavailability**
The gentle freeze-drying process maintains the natural cell structure, making nutrients easier for your body to absorb compared to heat-damaged alternatives.
**No Additives Needed**
Because the nutrition is naturally preserved, we don't need to add synthetic vitamins, preservatives, or fillers. Just pure, organic microgreens.
**Long-Term Wellness**
Consistent daily nutrition is the foundation of health. Our 25+ year shelf life means you can stock up without waste, ensuring you never miss your daily greens.
