Eggplant

The aubergine, often known as eggplant, offers fiber and a variety of nutrients. This vegetable with few calories is part of the Mediterranean diet. Because of their meaty texture when cooked, they’re popular among vegetarians.

At least 5% of a person's daily needs for fiber, copper, manganese, B-6, and thiamine may be met by one serving of eggplant. It also includes additional minerals and vitamins. Furthermore, phenolic compounds, which serve as antioxidants, are found in eggplants. Eggplant is also a good source of manganese, a mineral that supports the work of enzymes in your body. Chlorogenic acid, a key antioxidant in eggplants, may lower levels of low-density lipoprotein, or "bad" cholesterol and lower the risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, according to the research results of a 2014 study.
