Let's Go Natural

Microgreen Capsules

Ingredients: Broccoli, Garden Cress, Kale, Moringa, Alfalfa, Nettle & Spirulina


Who It’s For

Adults seeking a nutrient-rich daily greens boost to support energy, immune resilience, gentle detoxification, and acid–alkaline balance, used in conjunction with whole-food meals, hydration, movement, and restorative sleep.


Health Benefits Summary

Microgreen Capsules concentrate on vitamin-, mineral-, and phytonutrient-rich greens to boost daily vitality. Chlorophylls, carotenoids, and polyphenols help buffer oxidative stress, while cruciferous compounds (e.g., glucoraphanin → sulforaphane) activate the body’s natural detox enzymes. Gentle prebiotic and alkalinising effects support digestive comfort and a healthy internal environment. Together, these actions reinforce immune function, assist cellular cleansing, and provide steady, clean energy for everyday wellbeing.


Detailed Health Benefits

Cellular Antioxidant & Redox Support
How it Helps: Protects cells from everyday oxidative stress, allowing them to sustain energy and facilitate recovery.
How it Works: Chlorophylls, carotenoids, and phenolics neutralise free radicals and upregulate endogenous defences for healthier redox balance.

Detox Support & Clean-Up Pathways
How it Helps: Assists the body’s natural clearance of metabolic by-products and environmental pollutants.
How it Works: Cruciferous glucosinolates (e.g., from broccoli, garden cress, kale) yield bioactives that induce phase II enzymes and support conjugation/elimination.

Immune Resilience
How it Helps: Supports a balanced, ready immune response while easing day-to-day immune strain.
How it Works: Antioxidant and micronutrient sufficiency (vitamins, minerals) plus spirulina’s immune-modulating polysaccharides help steady cytokine tone.

Digestive Comfort & Alkalinity
How it Helps: Promotes a calm, comfortable gut and a mineral-rich, less acid-forming dietary pattern.
How it Works: Plant fibres and mucilages act as gentle prebiotics; mineral-rich greens contribute to overall dietary alkalinity.

Micronutrient Density for Daily Vitality
How it Helps: Fills common micronutrient gaps that can drain energy and resilience.
How it Works: Concentrated greens deliver vitamins, minerals, plant proteins, and phytonutrients in a convenient daily format.


Key Ingredients – Evidence-Based Actions

• Broccoli (microgreens/sprouts; Brassica oleracea)
How it Helps: Supports detox pathways, antioxidant status, and cellular defences.
Why it Works: Glucoraphanin converts to sulforaphane, inducing glutathione-linked phase II enzymes and cytoprotective responses; human trials have shown enhanced pollutant detoxification.
Research:
– RCT: broccoli-sprout beverage increased urinary excretion of benzene/acrolein metabolites (detox). https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4125483/
– Review: clinical relevance of sulforaphane for cellular defence. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6815645/


• Garden Cress (microgreens; Lepidium sativum)
How it Helps: Provides cruciferous glucosinolates and antioxidants to support daily detoxification and immune function.
Why it Works: Delivers phenolics and glucosinolates characteristic of Brassicaceae; emerging human data (primarily seeds) and compositional studies support antioxidant and metabolic benefits.
Research:
– Review of L. sativum nutrition/bioactives (phenolics, glucosinolates). https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38873486/
– Microgreens overview: dense vitamins/minerals/phytonutrients vs mature plants. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9864543/


• Kale (microgreens; Brassica oleracea var. sabellica)
How it Helps: Contributes carotenoids and polyphenols for antioxidant and anti-inflammatory support.
Why it Works: Rich phenolic/carotenoid profile associated with strong radical-scavenging capacity; cruciferous compounds complement detox pathways.
Research:
– Kale phenolics/antioxidant and antiproliferative activities. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9958672/
– Processing/nutrient retention context for kale matrices. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9964093/


• Moringa (Moringa oleifera, leaf)
How it Helps: Nutrient-dense leafy green that supports antioxidant, metabolic, and anti-inflammatory balance.
Why it Works: Polyphenols, vitamins, and isothiocyanates contribute to redox and metabolic modulation; although human evidence is mixed, it is trending supportive in metabolic contexts.
Research:
– Updated comprehensive review (pharmacology, nutrition, safety). https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9916933/
– Recent overview/meta-analytical signals in human metabolic outcomes. https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6643/17/22/3501


• Alfalfa (Medicago sativa, leaf)
How it Helps: Adds minerals, chlorophylls, and plant proteins to broaden micronutrient coverage.
Why it Works: Mineral-rich legume green; note L-canavanine caution from seeds/sprouts in autoimmune contexts (leaf is typically lower, but caution remains prudent).
Research:
– EFSA safety opinion (L-canavanine in seeds/sprouts; autoimmune caution). https://efsa.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.2903/j.efsa.2009.997
– Mechanistic review: L-canavanine and autoimmunity risk. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16890899/


• Nettle (Urtica dioica, leaf)
How it Helps: Mineral- and vitamin-rich tonic green supporting antioxidant status and everyday vitality.
Why it Works: High in chlorophylls, carotenoids, vitamins/minerals; polyphenols contribute to redox balance and immune support.
Research:
– Nutritional composition & bioactivities review. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9413031/
– Overview: nutritional value and applications. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9253158/


• Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis)
How it Helps: Supports immune tone, antioxidant capacity, and healthy lipid balance.
Why it Works: Phycocyanins, polysaccharides, and phenolics show antioxidant and immunomodulating effects; human trials/meta-analyses suggest improvements in lipid profile and redox markers.
Research:
– Systematic review: antioxidant/immune/inflammation outcomes. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9795056/
– Meta-analysis: improved serum lipids with spirulina. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37263369/


Dosage Guidelines

• Prevention (daily greens boost): 1 capsule with breakfast.
• Maintenance (ongoing support): 1 capsule twice daily with meals.
• Therapeutic (active replenishment phase): 2 capsules twice daily with meals for 6–8 weeks, then reduce to Maintenance.

Tips: Pair with colourful whole-food meals; hydrate well; consider a protein-rich breakfast to complement greens.


Warnings & Interactions

• Not for pregnancy or breastfeeding unless advised by a clinician.
• Thyroid/iodine: Crucifers (broccoli/kale) are generally safe in food-like amounts; ensure adequate iodine if thyroid-sensitive.
• Autoimmunity/warfarin: Alfalfa (esp. seed/sprout) contains L-canavanine; avoid in lupus/autoimmune disorders. Vitamin K-rich greens may reduce the effect of warfarin—monitor INR levels with your clinician.
• Phenylketonuria (PKU): Spirulina contains phenylalanine; seek a clinician’s advice.
• Allergy: Avoid if sensitive to any listed plants/cyanobacteria.
• General: Stop use if adverse reactions occur. Keep out of reach of children.
