- [Microgreens and Bone Health: The Nutrient Is Real, and Nobody Mentions Warfarin](https://microgreensguru.com/blog/microgreens-and-bone-health/): Vitamin K1 is the one nutrient microgreens genuinely deliver, at up to 137 percent of a day's intake in a handful. Five pages making the bone claim were checked and none mentioned the drug it interacts with.
- [Microgreens and Cancer: The Compound Everyone Names Is the One Broccoli Microgreens Have Least Of](https://microgreensguru.com/blog/microgreens-and-cancer/): Every cancer claim runs on sulforaphane, which comes from glucoraphanin. Broccoli microgreens carry twenty times more glucoerucin than glucoraphanin, and no human microgreen cancer outcome study exists.
- [Microgreens and Heart Health: What Has Been Tested in People, and What Has Not](https://microgreensguru.com/blog/microgreens-and-heart-health/): No completed human trial has measured blood pressure or cholesterol after anyone ate a microgreen. The cholesterol result circulating everywhere is an 8-week mouse study, and the nitrate case cannot even be costed.
- [Microgreens and Immunity: What the Nutrients Actually Do, and What Has Not Been Tested](https://microgreensguru.com/blog/microgreens-and-immunity/): Supports the immune system is a regulatory category, not a finding. No human trial has measured infections after anyone ate a microgreen, and a realistic serving supplies about 1 percent of a day's zinc.
- [Microgreens and Iron: You Would Need Eleven Trays a Day](https://microgreensguru.com/blog/microgreens-and-iron/): A 30 g portion supplies under 1.5 percent of a woman's iron. One half cup of cooked spinach beats two whole trays. And the oxalate story everyone repeats failed its human test.
- [Microgreens and the Thyroid: How Much Would You Actually Have to Eat?](https://microgreensguru.com/blog/microgreens-and-the-thyroid/): The one human dose threshold is 194 micromoles of goitrin. Reaching it takes about 110 g of a high-progoitrin kale or 1.94 kg of commercial broccoli, which is about 7 garnishes against 129.
- [Microgreens for Babies and Children: Cook Them First, and Here Is Why](https://microgreensguru.com/blog/microgreens-for-babies-and-children/): Cooking is the step that addresses the pathogen risk for under-fives, and it is the one thing you can act on. No pediatric or federal body sets a starting age, so here is exactly what is established.
- [Microgreens for Skin, Hair and Detox: What the Evidence Shows](https://microgreensguru.com/blog/microgreens-skin-hair-and-detox/): The wheatgrass detox claim traces to one person in 1955, not to a study. There are five human wheatgrass trials, they are about colitis and thalassemia, and the two largest were negative.
- [What Does a Tray Actually Yield? The Range Is 18-Fold and the Reason Is Not the Crop](https://microgreensguru.com/blog/what-a-tray-actually-yields/): Published yields for 39 of 62 crops run from 1.00 oz to 18.77 a tray. A seed catalog's range is only 2.7-fold, because the commercial world has already selected out the low yielders.
