Is kale healthy?
We all know that fresh fruits and vegetables should be an integral part of our diet. Kohlrabi is a particularly tasty member of the cabbage family and a real vitamin bomb. With only 23 calories and 3.2 carbohydrates per 100 grams, vegetables are extremely low in calories and are ideal for anyone on a low carb or keto diet. In addition, kale contains more vitamin C than lemons, thus protecting against high blood pressure and strengthening the immune system. Green tubers are also high in magnesium, iron, calcium and potassium. The fibers it contains keep us full for a long time. The leaves are also rich in beta-carotene or vitamin A. Whether it’s a raw low-calorie snack to lose weight, a light side dish to meat and fish, or a creamy gratin – the cabbage recipes are quick and easy and always offer real sweets.
