hey guys listen I want to talk about asparagus  this is an amazing vegetable it has a lot of  

nutritional benefits let’s just go through them  number one it’s a prebiotic what does that mean  

a prebiotic it’s a fiber that doesn’t break  down until you hit the large intestines and  

the microbes down there basically live off this  fiber and you build up your friendly bacteria  

okay that’s number one number two it’s extremely  high in vitamin K folate which is a B vitamin  

b1 tons of b1 b2 3 5 and 6 so it has a lot of B  vitamins and that’s good for stress that’s good  

for energy and that’s good just for you know  calming your nervous system down and then it’s  

very very high in phosphorus so in the ancient  times the Romans used to consume asparagus for  

phosphorous to improve their energy so it’s  a real good way to improve your energy it’s  

diuretic so it actually gets rid of excess of  fluid because it’s a mild kidney detoxifier  

now sometimes when you consume asparagus probably  most times you have this bad smell that’s sulfur  

compounds being detoxified from the kidney so  it’s definitely good it’s low in sodium high in  

potassium so it’s going to push fluid out kidney  stones great for protecting you against kidney  

stones and even dissolving kidney stones because  this vegetable is really kidney supportive and  

then it’s high in chromium now chromium is the  mineral that actually helps insulin resistance  

so it makes insulin more sensitive to go through  the cell and regulate glucose so it’s great for  

diabetics good for hypoglycemic people and  definitely for insulin resistance so overall  

I think it’s a wonderful vegetable that you  should consume on a regular basis so go ahead
