About Fava bean leaves
Fava bean leaves, tender and vibrant green, are a flavorful and nutrient-packed addition to meals. Native to the Mediterranean region, they are often featured in Middle Eastern and Italian cuisines, adding a fresh, slightly earthy taste to salads, soups, and stir-fries. Rich in vitamins A and C, fava bean leaves support immune health and skin vitality. They are also a good source of iron and potassium, aiding energy and heart function. Their fiber content promotes healthy digestion, while antioxidants help combat cellular damage. Naturally low in calories, fava bean leaves make a great choice for weight-conscious diets. However, individuals with G6PD deficiency should avoid them, as compounds in fava plants can trigger reactions. Versatile and nutritious, these leaves are a wonderful way to enjoy the health benefits of fava beans in a fresh, leafy form.
