About Rocket

Rocket, also known as arugula, is a leafy green vegetable popular in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines. With a distinct peppery and slightly bitter taste, it’s often used in salads, pastas, and pizzas to add a burst of flavor. Rocket is packed with nutrients, including vitamins A, C, and K, which support immunity, vision, and bone health. It also contains folate and antioxidants that contribute to cellular repair and overall wellness. Rocket is low in calories and high in fiber, making it a great choice for weight management and digestive health. Additionally, its natural compounds like glucosinolates are believed to have potential anti-inflammatory and cancer-fighting properties. While it’s generally a healthy option, some people may find its bitter taste overpowering. Blending it with milder greens can balance flavors while still enjoying its nutritional benefits.
