Harvesting my eggplant planted at our Backyard Early this morning it was fun and love to share with your its benefits.
Here are the Health benefits of eggplant
Eggplant is rich in fiber and antioxidants.
Chose to plant now because one serving of eggplant can provide at least 5% of a person's daily needs for fiber, copper, manganese, B-6 and thiamine. It also contains other vitamins and minerals.
Also, eggplant is a source of phenolic compounds that act as antioxidants. Antioxidants are molecules that help the body get rid of free radicals, unstable molecules that can damage cells if they accumulate in large quantities. Foods containing antioxidants can help prevent various diseases. Antioxidants in eggplant include anthocyanins, including nasunin, lutein and zeaxanthin. It’s a good source of nutrients.
Heart health benefits
The fiber, potassium, vitamin C, vitamin B-6, and antioxidants in eggplant all support heart health. A review published in 2019 suggests that eating foods containing certain flavonoids, including anthocyanins, helps reduce inflammatory markers that increase the risk of heart disease. We need to eggplant for our heart.
We need to learn this study way back in 2013 study found that middle-aged women who ate more than 3 servings per week of blueberries and strawberries - good sources of anthocyanins - had a 32% lower risk of heart disease than those who - eat these small fruits. In another study, researchers concluded that women with a high anthocyanin intake show that they have lower blood pressure and lower muscle strength than those who eat less of these compounds. Anthocyanin is antioxidant that can be found mostly in violet color fruits and vegetables.

Results from a 2014 mouse study showed that chlorogenic acid, the main antioxidant in eggplant, can reduce the level of low-density lipoprotein, or "bad" cholesterol, and reduce the risk of steatosis. Base on this study we can assure that eating eggplant regularly protects our body.

Anthocyanins can help achieve this by preventing new blood vessels from forming in tumors, reducing inflammation, and inhibiting enzymes that help cancer cells spread.

To Women How does diet affect breast cancer? Intellectual work
Results from animal studies show that nasunin, an anthocyanin found in eggplant skin, can help protect brain cells from free radical damage. Nasunin also helps transport nutrients into cells and remove waste products. Anthocyanins also help prevent neuroinflammation and improve blood flow to the brain. This can help prevent memory loss and other aspects of age-related cognitive decline. Laboratory studies have shown that nasunin can reduce the breakdown of fat in the brain, a process that can damage cells. Yes to eating eggplant.
