Green For Your Lungs!

Did you know a daily bowl of watercress may protect against long cancer. Makes sense, since it's also thought that the isothiocyanates in watercress may thwart a potent carcinogen in tobacco. And watercress is darn nutritious to boot. It's packed with vitamins, iron, calcium, phosphorus, potassium as well as mustard oil.
One quick and easy way to get watercress? Drink a V8. You'll find this drink at most supermarkets and stores. It's one of thhe main vegetables in the juice. But if you'd rather eat your cress than drink it, try using watercress in your salad. This is the best way to eat it with all the nutrients intact.
