Parsley is also a source of folic acid which turns dangerous homocysteine into benign molecules. Homocysteine at high levels contributes to heart attack and stroke. Parsley is rich in iron and chlorophyll, which is thought to reduce the risk of colon cancer. Of course, parsley also kills bacteria and helps freshen breath. There are plenty of ways to add this herb to your diet. Add parsley to your sandwich, toss it into a salad or whip it up in a batch of Tabbouli. Another option is tossing a handful into soups, stews, casseroles and sauces. The bottom line - get creative and implement a little parsley here and there. Your health will thank you.
