About Pak choy

Pak Choy, also known as Bok Choy, is a versatile leafy green vegetable commonly used in Chinese cuisine and increasingly popular worldwide. A member of the Brassica family, it features crisp white stalks and tender dark green leaves, offering a mild, slightly peppery flavor. Nutrient-dense and low in calories, Pak Choy is an excellent source of vitamins A, C, and K, as well as essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and potassium. It’s packed with antioxidants, which help combat inflammation and support a healthy immune system. Its fiber content aids digestion, while the presence of folate contributes to heart health. Pak Choy is naturally low in fat and cholesterol-free, making it an ideal choice for balanced diets. However, individuals with thyroid issues should consume it in moderation, as it contains goitrogens which may interfere with thyroid function when eaten in excessive amounts.
