About Bok choy
Bok choy, a type of Chinese cabbage, is a staple in Asian cuisine, particularly in Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese dishes. This leafy green vegetable has crisp, white stalks and dark green leaves, offering a mild, slightly peppery flavor. Native to China, bok choy is now enjoyed worldwide for its versatility in stir-fries, soups, and salads. Nutritionally, it is low in calories but packed with vitamins and minerals, including vitamins A, C, and K, as well as calcium, magnesium, and potassium. It’s also a good source of antioxidants and fiber, supporting immune health, strong bones, and digestive health. Bok choy is largely fat-free and contains compounds like glucosinolates, which may have cancer-fighting properties. However, excessive consumption of cruciferous vegetables can interfere with thyroid function in those with underlying thyroid issues, so moderation is key.
