NUTRITIONAL VALUES
 
Swiss Chard is known to be a nutritional powerhouse vegetable packed with vitamins, nutrients and health benefits. Ruby Red Swiss chard contains high levels of vitamins C, K, E, beta-carotene, calcium and the minerals manganese and zinc. As noted, it also contains betalain. Betalain pigments have repeatedly been shown to support activity within the body's detoxification process, activating and processing unwanted toxic substances. Betalians are not heat-stable, though, so longer cooking times can decrease their presence.
