Health benefits:

  2. Watercress has more vitamin C than oranges, more vitamin E than broccoli, more calcium than whole milk and more iron than spinach.
  3. Exceptionally high levels of Beta-carotene.
  4.  High level of dietary nitrate - lower blood pressure.
  5. Possible benefits of treating diabetes and preventing cancer

    2. Hi Camille, this was the first time for me too! Don't be too generous with watercress though - it has a rather sharp taste and can easily overpower the rest of the ingredients :-)
