7 Benefits of Fresh Herbs You Might Not Know
A Persian table isn’t complete without a plate of fresh herbs — and they do far more than add flavour.
1. Rich in vitamins K and C
Parsley and cilantro are among the richest plant sources of vitamin K for healthy bones, and their vitamin C supports immunity.
2. Better digestion
Mint and tarragon stimulate digestive juices and ease that heavy feeling after rich meals.
3. Natural antioxidants
Basil and dill contain phenolic compounds that fight free radicals.
4. More fibre, fewer calories
A full plate of table herbs has fewer than 30 calories.
5. Fresher breath
Parsley and mint naturally cut garlic and onion breath.
6. Iron and folate
Leek and parsley provide iron and folate, especially useful for women.
7. Hydration
Fresh herbs are more than 85% water.
