I grow great vegetables in my garden

Did you know that the softening properties of onions soothe coughs and that this natural antibiotic boosts your immune system? That a 200 g portion of green beans provides almost half your daily requirement of vitamin A? That zucchini, with its 94% water content, is easily digestible thanks to its soft fibers, and quickly gives you a feeling of satiety?

Because they help to diversify and balance our diet, and because they are sources of vitamins, minerals and proteins, we all know today that vegetables are the key to our health. Discover the nutritional benefits of 60 supervegetables in this book, and plant them in your family's vegetable garden right away!

Season by season, each vegetable is accompanied by an illustrated fact sheet detailing :

• Health benefits (antioxidants, omega-3s, fiber, etc.)

• Possible contraindications (diabetes, allergies, kidney stones...)

• The best varieties, how to grow them easily and harvest them at the right time.

From garden to plate, the best way to health! Antioxidant, anti-cancer, detox or fiber-rich... some vegetables are nutritional "bombs", so let's grow them in the garden! For each of the 60 vegetables (presented by harvest period), an illustrated fact sheet with its health benefits and all the information you need to choose the best varieties and grow them successfully.
