Nutrition facts
What’s so great about these veggies: tomatoes, avocados, celery, and kale? Firstly, they are healthy and nutritious. This salad will make you feel strong and energetic. You won’t feel tired.
Tomatoes
Tomatoes are rich in antioxidants, carotenoids: lycopene, beta-carotene and lutein. Also flavanones and flavonols (rutin, quercetin, kaempferol). These names sound unusual to me. However, scientific studies have proven that these substances have a neutralizing effect on the aging of the body, oxidative stress, cancer, atherosclerosis, skin aging and cardiovascular diseases. In addition, they prevent the accumulation of free radicals.
1 kg of raw tomatoes contains about 500 mg of various antioxidants: 160-240 mg of vitamin C, 10-200 mg of carotenoids (in total), 30-50 mg of phenolic acids, about 10 mg of vitamin E, 20-60 mg of flavonoids, 0.1- 0.4 mg of folate and also a small amount of minerals: potassium, selenium, zinc and copper.
Avocados
Avocados are a great source of fat, protein and carbohydrates. They contain folic acid, vitamin C, group B vitamins and fat-soluble vitamins A, E, K. Avocados are also sources of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. They contain minerals: copper, potassium, magnesium. Besides, avocados are a source of fiber and monounsaturated fatty acids.
Celery
Celery contains vitamin C, beta carotene, and flavonoids, but there are at least 12 additional kinds of antioxidant nutrients found in a single stalk. It’s also a wonderful source of phytonutrients, which have been shown to reduce instances of inflammation in the digestive tract, cells, blood vessels, and organs.

Raw kale contains Vitamins: A from beta-carotene, K, C, B6. Also Manganese, Calcium, Copper, Potassium, Magnesium. It also contains small amounts of vitamin B1 (thiamin), vitamin B2 (riboflavin), vitamin B3 (niacin), iron and phosphorus.
