Microgreens
Daily Elements is made of raw,
freeze-dried microgreens—that’s it.
freeze-dried microgreens—that’s it.
Straight from our farm to your table
When we started our indoor, pesticide-free farm in Chicago, IL, we knew we wanted to grow nature’s most nutrient-dense superfood: microgreens.
Unfortunately, these tiny vegetables are expensive and spoil quickly.
We created Daily Elements to make the overwhelming health benefits of microgreens accessible, convenient, cleaner than what’s on your supermarket’s shelves.

The most powerful
greens on earth

Don't let their size fool you. Microgreens pack a massive, concentrated nutritional punch full of antioxidants and vitamins.
A plant in its “microgreen stage” (10-12 days old) contains up to 40x more nutrients than an adult plant.
For example, just 1 oz of red cabbage microgreens has the same amount of vitamin E as 40 oz of adult red cabbage. Who wants to eat 2.5 pounds of cabbage?
Out of this world nutritious
While microgreens have gained popularity here on earth for their antioxidant properties and impressive nutrients, Scientists at NASA favor them even more as a stellar source of fresh food and vital nutrients for astronauts on long-term space missions.*
If these tiny greens can keep an astronaut healthy on the way to Mars, imagine what they can do for you.
Health benefits
Health benefits
Improved
digestive health
The prebiotic content in microgreens helps nourish the probiotic organisms in your gut. When your gut bacteria is thriving, so is your metabolism and nearly every aspect of your health.
Lower blood
pressure
Microgreens are rich in vitamin K, which has positive effects on blood pressure, can prevent blood clotting, and reduces the risk of heart disease and strokes.
Healthy skin
and eyes
Vitamins C, E, and K have antioxidant properties that protect the body from free radicals that can pose a threat to your skin and eye health.
Increased
energy levels
Potassium, iron, zinc, and magnesium in microgreens work together to to help support healthy metabolic energy, improve focus, and strengthen muscle function.
How it’s made
First, we grow the world’s cleanest microgreens
We're one of the only green powders that can promise you zero use of pesticides because our microgreens are grown in an indoor, fully controlled farm—without the use of pesticides, herbicides, or additives—making them even cleaner and more sustainable than organic.
Then, we freeze-dry them to lock in nutrients and extend shelf-life
Freeze-dried food is made when frozen raw ingredients are placed in a refrigerated vacuum system and, without thawing, are dehydrated. During this process, cell structure remains intact—resulting in high-quality ingredients with the same color, shape, flavor, and nutrients as the fresh product.
During our freeze-drying process, no additives or preservatives are used, ensuring a self-stable, but just as nutritious product. We freeze-dry our greens in the same fully-controlled environment they're grown in—free of milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, or soy.
"Researchers at Johns Hopkins Children’s Center report evidence from lab experiments that a chemical derived from a compound found abundantly in broccoli and other cruciferous plants may offer a potentially new and potent weapon against the viruses that cause COVID-19 and the common cold."
Red cabbage microgreens have a 6-fold higher vitamin C concentration than mature red cabbage, and 69 times the vitamin K.
"Eating a daily serving of cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, or brussels sprouts is linked to a lower likelihood of harmful calcium buildup in the aorta, the body's largest artery, according to a new report."
"The study, which looked at nutrients like Vitamin C, E, K and beta carotene found in 25 different types of microgreens including cilantro, celery, red cabbage, green basil and arugula... ultimately discovered that the microgreens contained four to 40 times more nutrients than their mature counterparts."
"In general, microgreens contained considerably higher levels of vitamins and carotenoids—about five times greater—than their mature plant counterparts, an indication that microgreens may be worth the trouble of delivering them fresh during their short lives."
Q + A
Because Daily Elements is made entirely of freeze-dried microgreens—without sweeteners or flavor enhancers—you can expect a subtle earthy taste. This mild flavor blends well into everyday recipes and does not overpower other ingredients.
Daily Elements is made of 4 pure microgreen varieties: Micro pea, micro kale, micro red cabbage, and micro broccoli.
Almost as important, though, is what’s NOT included. Our greens are grown in an indoor, fully controlled farm—without the use of pesticides, herbicides, or additives—making them even cleaner and more sustainable than organic.
They are freeze-dried in the same controlled facility free of milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, or soy.

The best part about Daily Elements is there’s no wrong way to use it! Go ahead, get creative. The crowd favorite is in a smoothie—but our customers also enjoy mixing their greens into sauces, soups, or as a seasoning (like leveling up their avocado toast). You might even like the taste of our greens so much you mix it straight into a glass of water!
NO! Freeze-drying is actually a smart way to extend the shelf life of produce and preserve the food’s nutritional value. Most researchers agree that the amount of nutrients lost from freeze-drying is miniscule.
Freeze-dried food is made when frozen raw ingredients are placed in a refrigerated vacuum system and, without thawing, are dehydrated. The ice in the product is sublimated into water vapor. During the freeze-drying process, cell structure remains intact. This results in high-quality ingredients with the same color, shape, flavor, and nutrients of fresh product.
During our freeze-drying process, no additives or preservatives are used. This ensures a shelf-stable, but just as nutritious product that tastes just like fresh microgreens.
