Nutritional values

The Mediterranean salad provides an extra portion of potassium, calcium and magnesium - the heart is happy. The minerals ensure the transmission of electrical impulses in the heart, which trigger the contraction of the heart muscle.

Add a handful of rocket to your salad: the bitter substances support the digestive system and add even more flavour.
