Nutrient richness and effect

Cucumbers

With a water content of 96%, cucumbers contain a lot of valuable plant cell water. The remaining 4% contains enzymes, especially protein-splitting peptidases, as well as vitamins and minerals. Above all, they contain vitamins from the B group, but also vitamins A, C, and E. Cucumbers are also rich in the minerals calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, and zinc. There’s even plenty of chlorophyll and antioxidants in the skin.

Celery stalks

Celery is an excellent source of vitamin K, vitamin C, folic acid, and potassium. Thanks to its fiber, it promotes digestion, and the abundant flavonoids give celery stalks both anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.

Kale

Kale is a vegetable of superlatives. This is because of its nutrient density coupled with a high vital substance content. For a vegetable, kale provides an enormous amount of protein – around 4 grams per 100 grams. The leafy green also contains blood-forming iron and minerals such as potassium and calcium, which are important for a healthy metabolism.
