There's unhealthy high level of PM2.5 outside our FlexiFarm in Bangkok and our vegetables are growing clean and thriving inside!
Kale
Kale is a green, leafy, cruciferous vegetable that is rich in nutrients. It contains fiber, antioxidants, calcium, vitamins C and K, iron, and a wide range of other nutrients that can help prevent various health problems, may manage blood pressure, boosting digestive health, and protecting against cancer and type 2 diabetes.
Butterhead Lettuce
Butterhead has the added benefit of carotenoid antioxidants like beta carotene, which can protect against certain eye conditions. The leaves are low in calories and offset their natural sugars with a healthy dose of fiber. It is an excellent source of several essential nutrients, including Vitamins A, C, and K, calcium, and iron. It also includes a significant amount of folate, making it ideal for pregnant women.
Green Oak
Green wavy, bushy leaves. Green Oak looks like red oak. It's very easy to eat fresh, deliciously by itself or topped with salad dressing. It tastes sweet, crispy, bushy, low in calories, high in B vitamins, vitamin C and fiber. Green oak is an excellent source of vitamin A, which help to maintain good eyesight. It also helps in easing constipation. It is good for muscles and hair as well.
Cos
Cos or romaine lettuce ranked among the “top 10 powerhouse foods, which are classified based on their associations with reduced risk for chronic diseases. It's an especially great source of vitamin A — one cup has 81% of your daily intake — as well as some B vitamins.
Frillice Iceberg Lettuce
Frillice is a cross between iceberg lettuce and curly endive; the leaves are green, thick and crisp like iceberg but the tops are crinkled like curly endive. The flavor is quite neutral, mild and slightly bitter, so it's best to mix it with other types of lettuce or vegetables that are higher in flavor. As part of a healthful diet, iceberg lettuce can increase fiber and water intake. This will improve gut health by ensuring regular bowel movements and preventing constipation.
Rocket
Rocket or arugula is nutritious green-leafy vegetable. The young tender leaves carry a bitter peppery flavor that makes it mostly a salad vegetable. It is very low in calories and contains high amount of vitamins A and C and anti-oxidants. The leaves are considered to detoxify enzymes from the body. It is a rich source of minerals, such as copper and iron.
Microgreen Mizuna
Mizuna has dark green, serrated leaves with thin stems and a peppery, slightly bitter flavor. It is low in calories but high in several vitamins and minerals, including vitamins A C, K, that are important for maintaining healthy vision and a strong immune system. Mizuna is a rich source of antioxidants, which protect your cells from damage from free radicals. It also contains powerful cancer-fighting compounds.
Swiss Chard
With its defining red (or rainbow) stems, chard is among the top powerhouse foods because of its low calorie count and high levels of nutrients. It has the most vitamin K of any leafy green on this list, at nearly 300% of your daily value per cup. Chard also contains a fair amount of magnesium, which is important for things like muscle and nerve function, blood-glucose control, and blood-pressure regulation.
Watercress
Watercress, with its little round leaves, was considered the top powerhouse food. However, by our metrics, it didn't pack in as many nutrients as others on the list. It's high in vitamins A, C, and K and incredibly low in calories.
