Herb leaves are aromatic plants used to enhance flavor in a variety of cuisines worldwide. Common types include basil, parsley, cilantro, mint, rosemary, and thyme, each offering distinct tastes and culinary heritage, from Mediterranean and Asian to Latin American dishes. Rich in vitamins A, C, and K, these leaves also provide antioxidants that support immune health and protect against oxidative stress. Their fiber content aids digestion, while some, like mint, are known for soothing upset stomachs. Low in calories and fat-free, herb leaves are a healthy way to season food without relying on salt or sugar. Fresh herbs tend to offer the highest nutrient value compared to dried forms. While generally beneficial, excessive use of certain herbs like high doses of parsley or mint can cause mild interactions in sensitive individuals. Overall, herb leaves are a versatile and nutritious addition to meals, elevating both flavor and health benefits.
