REASONS TO...

INCLUDE PAK CHOI IN YOUR DIET

This is a type of cabbage most often used in Asian cuisine.

1. It is rich in important trace elements such as potassium and calcium, which are good for normalising blood pressure and for healthy bones.

2. It’s full of vitamin A, which is necessary for the health of your eyes.

3. Pak choi contains folate, which is essential for women who are planning to get pregnant to protect against neural tube defects.

4. It’s a good source of vitamin E, which helps in the production of red blood cells to carry oxygen.

5. Pak choi is very low in calories. A 100g serving contains only 13 – so it can be part of a healthy, balanced diet.
