The Importance of Dark Bitter Greens

Incorporating dark bitter greens into your diet is crucial for long-term health, as these vegetables are rich in polyphenols, which have numerous health benefits. Varieties like arugula, Swiss chard, and radicchio are particularly beneficial and can help enhance gut health by feeding friendly bacteria. Consuming these greens can also support metabolic processes by uncoupling mitochondria, which helps regulate energy production in cells. These bitter vegetables are not only nutritious but also have excellent storage properties, making them practical staples to keep on hand.
