One of the great blessings of spring is new, fresh, and delicious flavors. After a season of warm comfort foods, it can feel great to add in more seasonal fruits and vegetables.
Our Keto Rhubarb and Strawberry Crisp does this with both strawberries and rhubarb. Here’s how.
Strawberries are a wonderfully nourishing low-carb fruit. In fact, they encourage:
Next, rhubarb is a vegetable (yes, a vegetable) with a lot of nutrition to offer. It provides:
Vitamin K for Bone Health. Vitamin K is an important nutrient for both blood and bone health. In fact, Vitamin K2 has been linked to stronger bones, improved fracture healing and reduced fracture incidence in post-menopausal women (3).
Vitamin A Antioxidant Power. Along with vitamin K, rhubarb delivers a healthy dose of vitamin A. Vitamin A is a powerful antioxidant that fights oxidative stress and the degradation of cells and tissues in the body.*
Fiber and Antioxidants for Optimal Cholesterol. Rhubarb provides both fiber and powerful antioxidants for optimal cholesterol levels. First, fiber absorbs some cholesterol from bile and eliminates it. Meanwhile strong antioxidants like resveratrol reduce cholesterol oxidation and plaque formation (4).
Sennocides and Fiber for Great Digestion. Rhubarb promotes balanced and healthy digestion with fiber, sennosides, and tannins. Fiber keeps the gut strong and healthy. Sennosides act as natural, gentle laxatives, while tannins provide anti-diarrheal effects (5).
Anti-Inflammatories for Full Body Health. Rhubarb’s antioxidants also promote reduced inflammation in the body. Inflammation is at the core of most modern chronic health concerns. Eating a diet high in anti-inflammatory nutrients promotes prevention and whole-body health.*
