But first, tell me which city in the world you are watching me from and what time this video reached you. Arugula is the main ingredient in today's recipe, it boasts an impressive list of nutritional benefits. It is rich in antioxidants and phytochemicals, which can help reduce inflammation and lower the risk of certain chronic diseases.
And also, they can help reduce the risk of breast cancer. Furthermore, the carotenoids found in green, leafy vegetables such as arugula may help reduce certain types of cancer, particularly prostate cancer. Arugula is rich in vitamin A, essential and necessary for healthy vision and maintaining our immunity.
It is also an excellent source of vitamin C, which protects the body against free radicals. Vitamin C is important for our blood vessels to stay strong and healthy. And it also participates in wound healing, iron absorption and neurological function.
Arugula is an excellent source of vitamin K, which forms and strengthens bones and limits neuronal damage in the brain. Along with these essential vitamins, arugula is also a good source of calcium, the mineral necessary for the normal structure of bones and teeth, nerve and muscle function, and the function of digestive enzymes. Additionally , calcium helps maintain healthy blood pressure, and contributes to the release of hormones, such as insulin.
To give you an idea, arugula is on the list of the top 10 most nutritionally dense foods on the planet, along with other super foods such as watercress and spinach. For this recipe we will use 10 arugula leaves. We will also add a tablespoon of chia.
Chia seeds contain a variety of nutrients, including fiber, protein, omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants and several vitamins and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, which are beneficial for health. These nutrients help maintain intestinal health, facilitate muscle mass gain and strengthen bones. And this is very important for those who are over 50 and are starting to feel the effects of aging.
