Veggie Spotlight

Veggie nutrition with Rob!

Kale

“Over the last 40 years kale has gone from the garnish that hippies eat, to renowned superfood. Why is that? Turns out that curly lettuce is packed with fiber and micronutrients essential to human health. Not only does kale pack so much vitamin K that you’d think kale is it’s namesake. In addition kale packs massive amounts of vitamins A, and C to boot. On a per calorie basis it’s hard to find another food that packs as much nutrition than kale, which means if you’re trying to lose or manage your weight, kale is a great choice to help reduce your caloric intake without sacrificing nutrients.”

Bok Choy

“Famously at home in stir fry dishes, Bok choy is at its most giving (nutritionally) after it has been cooked. When added to a meal Bok choy brings vitamins A, C and K to the table plus a bit of folate, and Pyridoxine (B6). While it grows Bok choy also does the work of pulling minerals from the ground just for you such as: iron, calcium, potassium, manganese and magnesium. So don’t be shy, grab a pan and release those nutrients!”
