In summer, spring, autumn or even winter, there are many fruits and vegetables on the shelves of our market gardeners and supermarkets. This is good because these foods are highly recommended by health professionals. But some, more than others, are to be consumed. Currently, one variety is particularly highlighted. Very present in Asian cuisine like ramens or woks, this vegetable also has real interesting virtues for health.
We want to highlight a vegetable. This one is native to Asia. Do you have a little idea? This is bok choy. Similar to cabbage, this variety is excellent for your health. The latter looks like a chard with its long green leaves. But its particularity is that its presence is less widespread across France. Pak choi can be enjoyed in different ways, raw or hot. It can accompany meats or be eaten in the form of soup. You are spoiled for choice.
In any case, bok choy is a real nutritional gem. According to a survey published in the columns of the magazine Food & Functionthis vegetable is ideal for protecting your heart health and arteries. Experts compared the behavior of different groups of hamsters after or without consuming bok choy. And you know what? The group that ate this variety daily saw their cholesterol levels drop. The same goes for triglycerides. We will now see if these effects are identical on humans.
