Kale, a member of the highly acclaimed cruciferous family, is extremely nutrient-rich yet low in kilojoules.
“Just one cup of raw kale contains more than double your recommended daily intake (RDI) for vitamin C (which is more vitamin C than in oranges), an essential antioxidant that aids your body’s immune defence and strengthens resistance to infection,”
Likewise, kale is packed with beta-carotene, which your body converts to Vitamin A, essential for eye health, immunity and bone health with one cup providing well over 100% of your RDI.
Kale can be eaten raw or cooked but do make sure you only cook kale lightly (lightly steam or stir-fry) to minimise loss of water-soluble nutrients.”
