13 Healthy Kale Recipes

13-healthy-kale-recipes

One day, I read one of the personal blogs about Kale. I find that it is great health benefits for anyone. I would like to try to make a Kale morning shake someday, as I need to restore my energy and reduce the high risk of heart disease. And, it helps to reduce my diabetes. I have seen some people with diabetes eat Kale often, their results are incredible.

What are the health benefits of using Kale? – the World’s Healthiest Foods.

  • Kale can provide you with some special cholesterol-lowering benefits if you will cook it by steaming. The fiber-related components in kale do a better job of binding together with bile acids in your digestive tract when they’ve been steamed. When this binding process takes place, it’s easier for bile acids to be excreted, and the result is a lowering of your cholesterol levels. Raw kale still has cholesterol-lowering ability—just not as much.
  • Kale’s risk-lowering benefits for cancer have recently been extended to at least five different types of cancer. These types include cancer of the bladder, breast, colon, ovary, and prostate. Isothiocyanates (ITCs) made from glucosinolates in kale play a primary role in achieving these risk-lowering benefits.
  • Kale is now recognized as providing comprehensive support for the body’s detoxification system. New research has shown that the ITCs made from kale’s glucosinolates can help regulate detox at a genetic level.
  • Researchers can now identify over 45 different flavonoids in kale. With kaempferol and quercetin heading the list, kale’s flavonoids combine both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits in way that gives kale a leading dietary role with respect to avoidance of chronic inflammation and oxidative stress.

You can create many recipes cooking Kale. At this time, I chose a few healthy Kale recipes, since I have made my goal personally to lose my weight this year. I cannot wait to try drinking Kale smoothie to balance my weight and restore my energy in my body.
