Did you have your green \u202a<\/a>veggies t<\/span>oday?<\/p>\n

A recent study found that green\u00a0vegetables\u00a0which contain nitrate (spinach, lettuce and celery, among others) may aid heart health\u00a0<\/span>and decrease the risk of diabetes and obesity.<\/p>\n

Consuming foods with nitrate can reduce the body’s production of erythropoietin, a hormone\u00a0<\/span>that regulates the body’s red blood cell count. This hormone can be helpful at a high altitude to ensure enough oxygen reaches the organs; however, when the blood cell count is too high, blood may thicken too much and starve the organs and tissues of necessary oxygen. Eating nitrate-rich foods can protect the body against heart and\u202a <\/a>circulatory<\/span>\u00a0conditions associated with a greater production of red blood cells.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

While research on this topic is still in progress, balancing a diet with leafy vegetables may help those at risk of\u00a0diabetes and obesity.<\/p>\n
