Here’s another salad recipe that is tasty as well as healthy! What in particular makes this recipe healthy is the kale, green cabbage and brussel sprouts. Kale contains protein, fiber, folate, Vitamins A, C, K and Alpha-linolenic acid.
Green cabbage is a great source of anthocyanins that help with mental function and concentration. It also contains a high amount of Vitamin C and sulfur which helps remove toxins and uric acid.
Brussel sprouts are a great source of glucosinolate. This has been shown to help fight and prevent cancer. Although brussel sprouts aren’t hugely popular, this is just another great reason to include them!
