Food and Health Awareness | The Benefits Associated with Kale

in #food7 years ago

Hey folks @cryptokraze here with my new Blog about Food and Health awareness in which I will highlight the health benefits associated with Kale. We should add variety of foods in our diet because they have bio-active components in them that help in preventing many diseases and provide other health benefits.

Top Health Benefits of Kale

The top health benefits provided by Kale are as under:

Anti-Inflammatory

Perhaps the most beneficial characteristic of kale eating is that it can become a powerful anti-inflammatory agent. When you consider the ideal ratio of ω-3 to ω-6, kale is a perfect anti-inflammatory diet. As a kind of “pro-inflammation”, processed foods rich in omega-6 fatty acids and many people living together today produce large-scale chronic inflammation, associated with almost all known human diseases such as cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, and Crohn's disease.

Detoxification

One of the main health benefits of kale is that it is a natural antidote. It not only helps eliminate toxins but also helps to remove them from the body. This is due to the fact that the component of kale is called isothiocyanate (ITC), which is composed of glucosinolates. According to reports, they can help you detoxify your body at the cellular level. This ITC has a powerful "one to two" effect on free radicals and toxins. Toxins in our environment, such as processed foods, pesticides, drugs, and pollutants, increase the risk of disease and increase the level of toxicity.

Heart Support

Deirdre Orceyre, MD, Physiotherapist, George Washington University Medical Center Comprehensive Medicine Center, said: “Kale in any vegetable which is very dark, that is, the high concentration of nutrients, anti-inflammatory and various antioxidant effects. This powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant Yan Duo makes it the perfect food for heart health.

Healthy Vision

Another important health benefit of kale is that it can improve your vision. It has been shown that two nutrients can provide dark green kale, zeaxanthin, and lutein that help prevent cataracts and macular degeneration. Zeaxanthin and lutein act as antioxidants in the eye and filter out the wavelengths of harmful blue light. The American Eye Association (AOA) says they do help maintain and protect healthy cells.
