Organic Japanese Sweet Choy Sum is related to the Hong Kong Choy Sum and Choy Sum flower and is equally juicy and delicious with a somewhat milder flavor. This makes it perfect for anyone wanting to add a member of the Brassica family into their smoothies which does not overpower the mix.\n\nIt is a great source of Vitamins A & C and also contains Calcium and a good amount of fiber. Organic Japanese Sweet Choy Sum is rich in carotene (pro-vitamin A), calcium, and dietary fiber, it also supplies potassium and folic acid, high in vitamin K which can be beneficial in the prevention of such diseases as osteoporosis, heart disease, and cancer.\n\nThe flavor of Sweet Choy Sum can be described as midway between cabbage and spinach, it tends to be milder in younger leaves, and develops a little kick in its older leaves. The flowering shoots and younger leaves of choy sum are used in salads or stir-fried, lightly boiled or steamed and added to the meat. Choy sum is an excellent source of water-soluble antioxidant, vitamin-C (ascorbic acid). 100 g provides 45 mg or 75 % of the daily requirements of vitamin C. Regular consumption of foods rich in vitamin C helps the body develop resistance against infectious agents and scavenge harmful, pro-inflammatory free radicals.\n\n
