The Perfect Ingredient For Any Meal
Kale was ranked as one of the most nutrient dense foods in the world and is the most easily accessible because of the many forms it comes in. This superfood is readily available in dry climates and for nearly half of the year, aside from it being available for so long it can also be found as a powder like this or as a chip stored in bags. This superfood is packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that can be hard to come by in a regular diet.[1]
Antioxidants like Quercetin and Kaempferol are essential for cancer fighting, lowering cholesterol, and preventing other diseases associated with weight-loss. One scoop of Kale Powder is 10 grams and is less than 15 calories in total but still hits nearly 100% of basic vitamin and mineral needs.[2]
Implementing Kale to your diet may be the last push you need to improve your eye health. Because of the high levels of Lutein and Zeaxanthin found in kale experts have begun experimenting with the use of a Kale supplement for improving eye health. Lutein and Zeaxanthin are two of the most important chemicals in your eyes and are necessary for maintaining vision especially in older adults.[3]
Kale is not only beneficial in boosting your weight-loss process, but it has also been encouraged to be used while losing weight to replenish vitamins, minerals, and any lost antioxidants. It can be helpful in shedding the fat because of it’s high fiber count, but it also prevents your body from losing too much of the necessary compounds you use regularly to function properly. This helps prevent the potential health risks that follow extreme weight loss and lets you reach your goals with little fear.[7]
Kale contains substances that work to bind bile acids, which are used to move fat through the body, thus lowering cholesterol. It has been cited as nearly 43% better than common cholesterol reducing drugs. It is also a great source of Vitamin K which is used most commonly for preventing osteoporosis and fighting heart disease.[5] [6]
