GOOD FOR YOU ASPARAGUS
The bright-green veggie is packed with good-for-you
vitamins and minerals like vitamins A, C, E, K, and B6, as well as
folate, iron, copper, calcium, protein, and fiber. Thanks to all these
nutrients, asparagus offers some serious health perks.
Interesting fact: Some people can smell the characteristic odor that asparagus gives to their urine, while others cannot. Now, a study reveals more than 800 new reasons why this strange phenomenon happens.
Researchers analyzed the genes of about 6,900 people and found 871 new genetic variants linked with an inability to detect this odor.
