Kale is anything but boring and one of the Superfoods that are especially great for your health! And rather than serving it only with fat bacon, it also makes a great appearance in smoothies, salads or as chips.
It owes its designation as a Superfood to the following ingredients which it contains in large quantities:
- Vitamin A, C, and K
- Folic acid, potassium, calcium, magnesium
- Iron and protein (kale in this regard is the „beef“ of all vegetables)
- many antioxidants through the amount of chlorophyll and phytochemicals
- amino acids
- Omega-3 fatty acids (about 1/3 of the daily requirement per serving)
- fibers
The following positive effects are brought to you by Mr. kale:
- acts anti-inflammatory
- has a cancer preventive effect by the high content of antioxidants (especially carotenoids and flavonoids)
- detoxifies
- is great for your digestion
- has a positive effect on the cardiovascular system
