August 6th (Tuesday) "Perfect for the heat" 3 seasonal foods to eat in August

Young radish greens

Young radish greens are a typical summer diet food rich in fiber and low in calories. They are also abundant in vitamin C and minerals, helping to prevent weakened immunity.

The vitamin C content per 100g of young radish greens is 23mg, which is five times that of an apple.

 

Consuming young radish greens helps prevent blood from becoming acidic, boosts appetite, and prevents constipation. It is also known to be excellent for maintaining eye health and regulating blood pressure.

 

Grapes

Grapes, which are in season in August, are a fruit with nothing to waste, from the flesh to the skin and seeds. The grape skin contains resveratrol, an antioxidant that helps prevent aging and cancer. Grape seeds contain polyphenols, which help lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and reduce inflammation and stress.

 

The anthocyanins contained in grapes have the effect of inhibiting the production of active oxygen, preventing aging, and relieving eye fatigue.

 

#Plum

 

Plums are the most delicious summer seasonal fruit in July and August. They are rich in vitamin C and composed of 85% water, making them good for quenching thirst during the summer. The vitamin K in plums promotes the metabolic process of bone formation, helping to increase bone density.

 

Plums are also rich in phenolic phytochemicals that have effects such as anticancer, antimicrobial, anti-allergic, and anti-inflammatory properties. There are research findings indicating that consistent intake of phenolic phytochemicals can reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases and heart conditions.
