Hello Reader,

You know that handful of microgreens you sprinkle on your salad?

Well, new research just dropped a bombshell that changes everything we thought we knew about chia microgreens. Seven university studies reveal these tiny leaves pack 900% more nutrition than anyone expected—but only if you understand the light exposure secret.

Meanwhile, Katie Frank (a former ER nurse) converted her sons' Xbox room into a thriving microgreens operation that's beating expensive hair treatments. Plus, Sunswell Greens just cracked the code on major Florida retail partnerships, Canadian trade tensions are creating massive opportunities for local growers, and universities are now training your future competition.

Ancient Mayan warriors carried chia for 24-hour sustained energy. Today's research proves they were onto something powerful.
