Here's why you should consider Kale in your diet

“You are what you eat," as the saying goes, and we should all be aiming to be Kale, at least if we follow the science.

Health organizations around the world encourage the population to incorporate fruits and vegetables into their diet. But healthy eating isn't always easy. Many fruits and vegetables are not grown locally and not everyone has access to fresh and nutritious produce.

Innovative companies such as Grobrix have created Indoor Vertical farms that let you grow fresh vegetables inside homes and office spaces. Kale, being one of their most grown vegetables, is tolerant to both cold and warm weather meaning it is available all year round. This is a big factor for salad lovers since you would always want fresh vegetables.?

Kale has seen a surge in popularity in countries such as the United States, Britain, and Australia. This leafy vegetable is used in salads, soups, and even made into chips. Kale is a highly nutritious food rich in vitamins including A, C, K, and B complex and minerals such as calcium, iron, and potassium. It is one of the best sources of Vitamin C and Vitamin A, antioxidants important for our immune system.

Generally, kale has a strong earthy and bitter flavor, but the younger, tender leaves are mild and perfect for making salads. Cooked kale is softer and best combined with sweet and sour flavors to balance out the taste. Regardless of how you choose to prepare it, there is no doubt that including homegrown kale makes your meal more delicious and healthier.
