Why it is good for you:
Not used enough, bok choy is actually a type of Chinese cabbage. It's a part of the cruciferous vegetable group and is dense in vitamins and minerals. The vitamins C & A found in bok choy act as antioxidants and protect cell membranes from damage.
We can't forget to mention ginger. This nutritional powerhouse is both medicinal and aromatic. Ginger fights against sickness, reduces inflammation and minimizes infections.
