Nutritional values

One portion completely covers your daily requirement of vitamin A and zinc. Both play an important role for our eyes: a vitamin deficiency makes itself felt as night blindness or impaired vision, zinc is directly involved in the visual process.

Consume watercress as fresh as possible, as it loses its aroma quickly and its vital substance content decreases if stored for a long time. It can be stored loosely wrapped in a damp cloth in the vegetable compartment of the refrigerator for a maximum of 1 day.
