Spring is the season when the first harvests of truffles (spinach, nettle) are found in the markets. Fragmented and green, these plants are a true deposit of vitamins and minerals and they help us and strengthen our body's immunity.
Rich in nutrients, the spinach offers nearly half the daily requirement for vitamin A, just by eating a cup of it. At the same time, spinach offers 15% of daily vitamin C needs.
Spinach consumption brings a fiber intake that helps digestion, prevents constipation, balances blood sugar and gives satiety. It can participate in the prevention of tumor pathology, especially in prostate cancer.
The nettles are full of vitamins, A, C, B2, K, iron, magnesium, calcium, and can be eaten in salads or soups. Nettle juice has strong immune stimulating and anti-anemic properties, and this is due to its rich iron content.
