The latest leafy green to make the list of “superfoods”? Watercress. By now you surely know that it’s good to eat green. And it’s especially good to eat leafy green vegetables like…watercress? Yes, indeed! It turns out that watercress tops the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s list of “powerhouse fruits and vegetables,” with a perfect nutrient-density score of 100. And while it may seem like there’s a new “best” green every week, the fact is all leafy greens — Brussels sprouts, spinach, cabbage, collards and kale, to name a few — are packed with powerful nutrients. Consuming an abundance of green vegetables will reduce your risk of any number of chronic diseases. Source: Cleveland Clinic
