Health Benefits

 

Tomato

Tomato is a nutrient-rich superfood that can be enjoyed year-round. Its vibrant color and sweet but slightly tart flavor make it an ideal addition to any diet. Tomato contains a good source of the antioxidant lycopene, which has been proven to help protect against certain types of heart disease and cancer. Tomato can also provide important vitamins and minerals, such as vitamins A, C, and K, and potassium, folate, and magnesium. Adding tomatoes to your diet is an easy way to increase essential nutrients for optimal health.

 

Cucumber

Rich in nutrients and packed with vitamins, cucumber is an incredibly versatile vegetable that offers many impressive health benefits. Not only is cucumber a great source of antioxidants, fiber, and potassium, but it also provides a great aid for digestion due to its impressive water content (95%). Tomato and cucumber gazpacho is not only refreshingly delicious but also provides the perfect combination of these two nutrient-dense ingredients. With both Tomato and cucumber, you can get the most out of their superpowers: Tomato boosts immunity while cucumber helps balance blood sugar levels, detoxes the body from heavy metals, and supports healthy skin.

 

Basil

Basil has long been celebrated for its extensive list of health benefits, and for good reason. Its leaves are packed with healthful antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals such as Vitamin K, magnesium, iron, and calcium. Studies have shown this incredibly versatile herb can improve cardiovascular health and even help to fight free radical damage in the body. Not only that, but it adds a delicious flavor to common recipes like Tomato and Cucumber Gazpacho! So why not add basil to your next recipe? Not only will you get some protein and fiber, but you’ll be sure to reap all of the incredible health benefits this amazing herb has to offer.
