Description
Chives are a plant that has many benefits for health and wellness. Here are two paragraphs that summarize some of its benefits, based on the list you sent me:
Chives are very low in calories (30 kcal per 100 grams). They provide numerous essential nutrients such as vitamins (C, A and K), fibers, minerals (potassium, calcium and phosphorus) and antioxidants. They are also a great source of water (100 grams contain 90.6 grams of water). Chives reduce cholesterol. Thanks to their antioxidant content, chives can lower the levels of cholesterol in the blood. They also improve circulation. Some of their substances release nitric acid that decreases blood pressure. They prevent the formation of clots and protect the body from cardiovascular diseases. Chives fight cancer. Among them, the consumption of chives is directly related to the prevention of cancer in general, and of esophagus and stomach cancer in particular (as well as garlic or onion). Thanks to their vitamin C content, they help the body to fight free radicals and to strengthen the immune system.
