Asparagus is in season during the spring and is one of the best sources of dietary fibre. Also high source in calcium and vitamins A, C, B6, K.

Asparagus is low in calories and contains lower than average sodium levels. The stalks from asparagus are important and  hold most of the good antioxidant.

Asparagus is rich in the mineral folate. Folate rich foods are great for pregnant women as it help protect against any tube defect in babies.

A recent study has show that people whom have very low levels of folate in there diet are more prone to suffer from Alzheimer’s Disease.
