Radishes

Radishes may not be the most popular vegetable in your garden, but they are one of the healthiest. These undervalued root vegetables are nutrient-dense. They may even help in the treatment and prevention of certain diseases.

Radishes are small in size, but they pack a nutritional punch. They're low in carbohydrates and calories, but high in fiber and vitamin C. Radishes also contain antifungal properties and have been shown to be effective in test-tube and animal studies against a variety of fungi. Furthermore, a rat study found that the radish plant's leaves may protect against stomach ulcers. Radishes are a great way to add some crunch to your meals or snacks. To make your food more healthful and tasty, add slices to slaws, sandwiches, salads, or tacos.
