(NaturalNews) Asparagus, the green spear-shaped vegetable that arrives in grocery stores at the beginning of spring, is packed with a wealth of health benefits, making it a good choice to add to your diet. One cup of asparagus contains only 40 calories and has a very low glycemic impact, which makes it a great addition for anyone who wants to reduce spikes in blood sugar levels.
What are the benefits of eating asparagus?
One of the ingredients in asparagus, folate, has been shown to help in the reduction of depression symptoms. Folate works to prevent high levels of homocysteine from accumulating in the body. High levels of homocysteine can interfere with the ability for the brain to receive vital nutrients and hormones, including serotonin and dopamine. When these hormones are not able to reach the brain, symptoms of depression can worsen and sleep patterns can become disturbed.
A few stalks of the vegetable can also help to prevent birth defects, as four spears contribute close to one-quarter of the recommended daily allowance for folic acid. However, pregnant women aren't the only ones who can benefit from consuming folic acid, as the nutrient has been found to help with cell regeneration and reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease.
Keep things regular with asparagus
High in both fiber and water content, asparagus can aid in preventing constipation, ensuring that the body is able to effectively remove toxins before they accumulate. Half a cup of asparagus tips provides close to two grams per serving while only containing 20 calories, making it a great source of both soluble and insoluble fiber.
The high fiber content also contributes to the filling characteristic associated with the vegetable, making it a great vegetable choice to aid in weight loss goals. Diets that are high in fiber have been shown to reduce the risk of hypertension and obesity, reduce serum-cholesterol levels, and the development of various gastrointestinal diseases and colon cancer.
