About Kangkong
Kangkong, also known as water spinach, is a leafy green vegetable popular in Southeast Asian and East Asian cuisines. Native to tropical and subtropical regions, this versatile plant is commonly used in stir-fries, soups, and salads. Kangkong is rich in essential nutrients, including vitamins A and C, iron, calcium, and dietary fiber, making it a great choice for boosting immunity, improving digestion, and supporting overall health. Its abundance of antioxidants helps combat oxidative stress, while its low-calorie content makes it ideal for weight management. Consuming kangkong regularly may promote better heart health due to its potassium content. However, it is advised to wash it thoroughly and cook it well to avoid potential contamination, especially when sourced from stagnant water. With its tender leaves and mild, earthy taste, kangkong is a delicious and nutritious addition to any balanced diet.
