1L Microgreen Powder

If you've tried probiotics, elimination diets, and every fiber supplement on the market here's the one thing most people struggling with IBS symptoms are still missing. And it comes down to what your gut is getting (or not getting) nutritionally every single day.

Many people with IBS show signs of chronic low-grade gut inflammation, that persistent sensitivity and disproportionate bloating. Sulforaphane, concentrated in broccoli microgreens, activates your body's built-in anti-inflammatory defense system. 1st Leaf is harvested at 7–14 days old, when sulforaphane is at its peak, then freeze-dried within hours to lock in that potency.

Probiotics add new bacteria — but without enough prebiotic fiber to feed them, they don't survive long enough to help. Think of it like releasing fish into a lake with no food. The pea shoots and kale in 1st Leaf are naturally rich in whole-food prebiotic fiber not the synthetic inulin or chicory root that can actually worsen IBS symptoms in sensitive guts.

Most gut-health greens powders contain the very things that trigger IBS- sucralose, inulin, chicory root, sugar alcohols. Every ingredient in 1st Leaf is a whole food: broccoli, kale, peas, mustard, and red cabbage microgreens, with no unnecessary fillers, sweeteners, or additives.

Red cabbage microgreens are exceptionally high in anthocyanins — plant pigments with anti-inflammatory properties in relation to intestinal cells. Mustard microgreens add complementary phytonutrients that may support a calmer gut lining. Because 1st Leaf is freeze-dried (not heat-dried), 97% of these sensitive compounds are preserved — which is why the powder has such a vivid color.

The team behind 1st Leaf runs Urban Micro Gardens— a vertical farm in Batavia, IL, 30 miles west of Chicago. Every microgreen is grown in-house, harvested at peak potency, and freeze-dried on-site. No contract manufacturers, no mystery blends, no cross-contamination risk. For people managing IBS, knowing exactly where every ingredient comes from removes a variable that matters.
