Kale is dubbed the “queen of greens” because it provides the body with countless essential nutrients and has many excellent uses and applications. Let’s explore kale and kale powder with PEROMA in the article below!
INTRODUCTION TO KALE
Kale is a perennial plant belonging to the cabbage family, with stems ranging from 1 to 1.5 meters tall. It has a slightly bitter taste and is considered closely related to vegetables such as cabbage, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, or collard greens.
Unlike other common types of cabbage, kale has curly, tightly packed leaves in green or purple, hence it is also known as curly kale, green kale, or purple kale. Kale was first discovered in America in 1669, however, in recent years, kale has become more well-known and popular in meals in many countries. In the United States, there was a time when kale drove many housewives crazy. Information about them flooded magazine pages, television programs, and there was even a fictional program called “The Kale Diary” published in The New Yorker.
Kale plants are suitable for temperate regions; hence, in Vietnam, they are well-suited to the climate and soil conditions of Da Lat or the highlands. This is also why recently, many women in these areas often encourage each other to grow kale.
BENEFITS OF KALE FOR HEALTH
Rich in antioxidants
Kale contains high levels of fiber, antioxidants, and various vitamins and minerals essential for health. The fiber and antioxidants in kale help regulate blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetes patients. Additionally, they help reduce the risk of peripheral neuropathy and related nervous system and cardiovascular diseases.
Good food for those with heart disease
Kale powder contains a large amount of potassium, fiber, vitamin C, B6, etc. A diet rich in potassium-rich foods like kale can help lower blood pressure, reduce the risk of stroke or cardiovascular diseases, and the formation of kidney stones.
Reduces the risk of cancer
Kale contains chlorophyll, which supports the body’s cells in binding to cyclic amines and prevents the body from absorbing them. This substance is present when cooking meat at high temperatures and is one of the causes of cancer.
Good for bone and joint health
The high vitamin K content in kale powder supports the body in absorbing calcium from other foods and limits the loss of calcium excreted in urine.
Good for digestion
Kale contains plenty of fiber, vitamins B, C, etc. These substances help prevent constipation, promote digestive system activity, and reduce the risk of digestive tract diseases.
Helps with weight loss
Due to its low calorie content and high nutritional value, kale powder is an excellent product for weight loss. While kale powder may not fill your stomach like fresh kale, it still provides the physical nutrients you need and is less likely to be associated with high-calorie processed foods.
