About Aurigula

Aurigula, also known as "rocket" or "arugula," is a leafy green vegetable native to the Mediterranean region and widely used in Italian and Middle Eastern cuisine. It has a distinct peppery flavor that adds a zesty kick to salads, pasta, and pizzas. Rich in nutrients, Aurigula is an excellent source of vitamins A, C, and K, along with calcium, potassium, and antioxidants that support immune health and bone strength. Its low calorie and high fiber content make it a smart choice for weight management and digestion. Aurigula also contains glucosinolates, compounds that may offer cancer-preventive benefits. However, individuals taking blood-thinning medications should consume it in moderation due to its high vitamin K content. Versatile, nutritious, and flavorful, Aurigula is an ideal addition to a healthy diet.
