Metabolic Balance Presents Weekly Recipes with Ingredients That Are Going To Make You Feel Amazing - Part 2 Arugula

Whether in pesto, as a salad or on a pizza – arugula is not only very popular, but also absolutely healthy. The dark green leaf salad with the spicy flavor is rich in vitamin C and thus supports the immune system. In addition, arugula contains folic acid, other B vitamins, plenty of beta-carotene as well as potassium, iron, magnesium and calcium. Its bitter substances also ensure a healthy metabolism. Due to their intense taste, the bitter substances are responsible for the rapid onset of salivary and digestive juices. The feeling of satiety is thus accelerated and we feel full faster. Arugula thus also prevents cravings and becomes a multi-talent on the plate.
