Iron!

Did you know that in ONE CUP of sunflower microgreens (1 ounce) there’s around 6mg of iron?!

For perspective:
Men and postmenopausal women need around 8mg a day
Menstruating women need around 18mg a day

Pictured in the reel is 1 ounce which is roughly one cup chopped. With everything else we eat each day, it’s super easy to get adequate iron because we eat a wide variety of plants.

Other great raw vegan sources include all other leafy greens, beets, sprouted lentils and chickpeas, dried apricots, all cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, mushrooms, cashews, natto, unpasteurized tempeh, almonds, flax, tomatoes all types fresh, sundried and and tomato powder, sweet potatoes (put them raw in the wraps!), mulberries, black olives, dried thyme and sprouted oats!

Sprouting and fermenting foods makes iron more available as well hence why sprouting lentils is a great option. Make sure to include vitamin C rich foods with iron rich ones to enhance absorption as well.
