Water parsley is rich in vitamins A, C & K. It's rich in antioxidants, flavonoids & carotenoids. Used in salads & as a garnish, don't leave this super food on the side of your plate!

Apigenin, a flavonoid, is found in numerous vegetables and herbal spices such as parsley, celery, basil, chamomile, cilantro, and oregano. Extensive research has demonstrated that plant flavonoids, including apigenin, play a significant role in reducing the risk of cancer development and have been the subject of widespread investigation for their potential in chemoprevention.

Rich in antioxidants, flavonoids, carotenoids, ascorbic acid, and tocopherol, water parsley can be used to make a herbal tea using either fresh or dried leaves.
