Kale is a nutritional powerhouse; it contains 45 different flavonoids which give you antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits which help you avoid chronic inflammation and oxidative stress. Kale also plays a big role in the detoxification of the body. It has cholesterol-lowering benefits if you cook it by steaming. It is known for risk-lowering benefits for bladder, breast, colon, ovary, and prostate cancer. Goodie.

Unfortunately, it is a goitrous vegetable, so for those with hypothyroid, never consume it raw, steam it and even then, don’t consume it more than 2-4 servings per week – until your inflammation is reduced.
