One cup of chopped kale contains as much as 9 % of an adult's daily calcium requirement (protecting you from bone loss and osteoporosis) and helping your metabolism); 206 % of your vitamin A requirement (good for vision and skin as well as helping to prevent lung and mouth cancers); 134 % of your vitamin C requirement (
supporting the immune system) and a whopping 684 % of cancer fighting vitamin K. Vitamin K is also necessary for a wide variety of other
bodily functions, including normal blood clotting, antioxidant
activity, and bone health.
