Nutrient highlights:
Arugula contains the phytochemicals called glucosinolates, which have been shown to inhibit cancer cell growth in lab studies. Arugula also has a high level of nitrates, a precursor to nitric oxide. Nitric oxide is able to make blood vessels bigger, and a growing body of evidence suggests that it may play a pivotal role in keeping the cardiovascular system healthy.
Chickpeas, pistachios, and whole grains offer a great source of plant based protein!
