WHITE RADISH (MOOLI)
Information:
Description:
Radishes are small, round or cylindrical root vegetables known for their crisp texture and peppery flavor. They come in a variety of colors, including red, white, pink, and purple, with a range of skin and flesh colors. The most common variety is red with a white interior, but other types include daikon radishes, which are white and elongated, and black radishes, which have a dark exterior and a more pungent taste.
Health Benefits:
Supports Digestive Health: Radishes are high in fiber, which aids in digestion and helps maintain regular bowel movements. The fiber content also supports gut health by promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract.
Rich in Antioxidants: Radishes contain antioxidants such as vitamin C, catechin, and other flavonoids that help neutralize harmful free radicals in the body. This can reduce oxidative stress and lower the risk of chronic diseases.
Boosts Immune Function: The high vitamin C content in radishes supports the immune system, helping the body to fight off infections and illnesses. Vitamin C also aids in the production of collagen, which is important for skin health and wound healing.
