About Salad arugula

Arugula, also known as rocket, is a leafy green native to the Mediterranean region and widely used in Italian cuisine. This nutrient-rich vegetable boasts a peppery, slightly bitter taste that adds depth to salads, pastas, and pizzas. It's a powerhouse of vitamins, including Vitamin K, essential for bone health, and Vitamin A, which supports vision and skin health. Arugula is low in calories and high in fiber, making it an excellent choice for weight management and digestion. Its antioxidants, such as beta-carotene, contribute to reducing inflammation and promoting overall heart health. Additionally, arugula contains folate and nitrates, which may support brain function and improve circulation. While generally healthy, it is high in oxalates, which may be a concern for individuals prone to kidney stones. Versatile and flavorful, arugula is a nutritious addition to your meals, blending health benefits with bold taste.
