Why Microgreens Are So Nutrient-Dense and cost effective
Microgreens are harvested at the seedling stage—when nutrients are most concentrated.
They offer 4 to 40 times more of these nutrients compared to their fully-grown versions—in less than a tenth of the volume. Here’s why they’re superior, with a focus on key varieties that shine in both nutrition and price efficiency.
We’ve combined insights on relative concentrations, cooked mature equivalents, and cost comparisons to give you a complete picture. The relative concentrations selected are based on scientific studies from sources like USDA research and PMC articles, choosing values that represent typical or high multipliers for key nutrients in each microgreen, such as 40x for broccoli’s sulforaphane and red cabbage’s vitamin E, to highlight their potential nutrient superiority while using averages for varieties with variable data.
| Microgreen (Concentration) | Key Nutrient Matching Concentration | Cooked Mature Equivalent (g) | Cost of Mature Equivalent (Shop) | *50g Micros (*approx) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Broccoli (40×) | Sulforaphane | 2000g cooked broccoli (~6 heads) | £22.86 (Daylesford) | £3.00 |
| Red Cabbage (40×) | Vitamin E | 2000g cooked red cabbage (~2.5 heads) | £6.25 (Daylesford) | £3.00 |
| Radish (10×) | Glucosinolates | 500g cooked radish (~2.5 bunches) | £4.50 (Daylesford) | £3.00 |
| Rocket (5×) | Carotenoids | 250g cooked mixed greens (~2.5 bags) | £4.00 (Waitrose) | £3.00 |
| Kohlrabi (10×) | Glucosinolates | 500g cooked kohlrabi (~1.7 bulbs) | £4.17 (Planet Organic) | £3.00 |
| Fenugreek (10×) | Antioxidants | 500g cooked fenugreek (~5 bunches) | £11.50 (Whole Foods) | £3.00 |
| Pea (10×) | Carotenoids | 500g cooked peas (~2.5 packs) | £5.00 (M&S) | £3.00 |
| Mustard Greens (25×) | Glucosinolates | 1250g cooked mustard/spring greens (~6 bunches) | £20.00 (Daylesford) | £3.00 |
| Sunflower Shoots (10×) | Vitamin E | 500g cooked mixed greens (~5 packs) | £18.50 (Planet Organic) | £3.00 |
Would you like to know more about why microgreens are considered so nutrient-dense and cost-effective compared with traditional vegetables?
We’ve put together a detailed breakdown showing how different varieties stack up in terms of nutrients, price, and bioavailability, along with practical tips for getting the most out of them. Read the full comparison here.
- Glucosinolates: Found in cruciferous vegetables (like broccoli, cabbage, and radish), these natural compounds convert into sulforaphane, which supports detoxification, reduces inflammation, and may protect against cellular damage.
- Carotenoids: These plant pigments (like beta-carotene, a precursor to vitamin A) are powerful antioxidants that protect your eyes, skin, and immune system. Microgreens like rocket and pea are particularly rich in carotenoids.
- Vitamin K: Essential for bone health and blood clotting. Brassica microgreens (like broccoli and red cabbage) often contain several times more vitamin K than mature vegetables.
- Vitamin C & E: Crucial for immunity, skin repair, and reducing oxidative stress. Microgreens often have 2–10× the vitamin C of mature greens.
- Minerals: Pea and fenugreek microgreens are great sources of iron, magnesium, potassium, and zinc.
Cooking Cost and Time: Microgreens vs. Mature Vegetables
One of the standout advantages of microgreens is their minimal preparation time and energy cost. Unlike mature vegetables, which often require extended cooking times (e.g., boiling or steaming for 10–30 minutes), microgreens are typically eaten raw, preserving nutrients and eliminating energy costs for cooking.
Time-wise, preparing mature vegetables involves washing, chopping, and cooking, often taking 20–30 minutes, while microgreens can be rinsed and used immediately or lightly cooked in under 5 minutes, saving both time and energy. This makes microgreens a cost-effective, time-efficient choice for nutrient-dense meals. Explore delicious ways to use them in our Microgreens Recipes Guide.
