Homemade Honey Rhubarb Jam from a lovely rhubarb plant in our garden space.
Benefits of Rhubarb:
Rhubarb contains fiber, protein, vitamin C, vitamin K, B complex vitamins, calcium, potassium, manganese, magnesium, beta-carotene, lutein, and zeaxanthin. It is high in antioxidants so it's good for inflammation and your immune system.⠀The fiber is beneficial for gut health. Vitamin K is brain and bone protective, so it helps prevent neurodegeneration.⠀The trace minerals in rhubarb support circulation. Beta-carotene is a precursor to vitamin A which supports skin and immune systems.
