NUTRITION MIX

A BLEND OF

BROCCOLI

CABBAGE

AND

KOHLRABI

🌱 Nutritional Highlights

The Nutrition Mix combines three brassica microgreens — broccoli, cabbage, and kohlrabi. All three are rich in glucosinolates, sulforaphane, and polyphenols. This blend supports cellular detoxification, antioxidant defense, and metabolic regulation. Scientific findings show:

  • Broccoli microgreens provide up to 161 mg of glucoraphanin per 100g, a key sulforaphane precursor

  • Cabbage microgreens contain potent anthocyanins, kaempferol, and vitamin C

  • Kohlrabi microgreens are loaded with glucobrassicin, vitamin K, and potassium

  • Combined, this trio demonstrates high total antioxidant capacity, with >80% DPPH inhibition and strong liver-protective properties

🧑🏻‍🍳 Flavor & Best Use

Fresh, cruciferous, and slightly sweet — this mix tastes like a milder version of coleslaw greens. Great in salads, grain bowls, or tucked into rice paper rolls. It also works well when folded into omelets or rice dishes for a nutritional punch.

🍽️ Suggested Serving Size

A typical serving of 20–40g (0.75–1.5 oz), or about 1 to 1½ cups of Nutrition Mix, provides a high-impact dose of antioxidants and detoxifying compounds. For optimal benefits, consume this mix 3–5 times per week. A container of our Nutrition Mix contains at least 57g (2 oz), meaning you should get 2 to 3 servings. This dietary suggestion is based on findings from Renna et al., (2020).
