Swiss Chard

Swiss Chard is a leafy green commonly used in Mediterranean cooking; it has broad, crinkly leaves and often brightly colored stems and ribs, and is popular in sautés, soups and braised vegetable dishes. It is very low in energy and nutrient-dense, notably supplying about 830µg of vitamin K per 100 g, along with vitamin A and vitamin C and modest fiber. Swiss chard is prized for being a low-calorie source of vitamins, minerals and plant compounds with antioxidant properties; because of its very high vitamin K content, people taking blood-thinning medication should monitor intake or consult their clinician before eating it regularly.
