Parsley

Comes along with Shawarma plates, garnishes rice and helps with garlic breathe. That’s all I knew about the mighty parsley until last month.

Now, since I know a lot more about the healing benefits of this not so respected leaf, I recommend you including it into your diet owing to the following reasons:

• Significant source of Vitamin K, A, C and B
• Has copper, folate and calcium
• Contains manganese, phosphorus and zinc
• Good source of Antioxidants
• Maintains good heart health
• Shields body from Rheumatoid Arthritis
• Supports healthier kidney function
• Increases immunity

Certain days I add it to our green smoothie.

Certain days we drink it up as a tea.

Next time you get parsley garnished meal, eat it up knowing how good it is for your health.
