10 Benefits of Swiss Chard
Benefit #5: Better Digestion
Good digestion ensures that your body gets the nutrients contained in the food that you eat and that waste is expelled within reasonable time. Swiss chard contains a substantial amount of fiber besides anti-inflammatory and antioxidant phytonutrients and water. These constituents of Swiss chard support the digestive system to function properly.
This ensures that after breakdown of food, nutrients are absorbed and the waste is transported through the large intestines for onward expulsion through the anus. When this happens within reasonable time, toxins in the digestive system are eliminated before they can cause harm in the digestive system or other parts of the body.
