Endive, also spelled as "endivia", is a smooth escarole vegetable native to Spain, particularly cultivated from autumn to winter. It comes in trays of 0.400 kg containing three units each. It features a crisp texture and a bitter taste on the palate. Rich in fiber and water, it is an excellent choice for weight loss diets due to its low calories. Additionally, it is a source of vitamins E, A, B1, B2, B6, C, minerals, folic acid, niacin, antioxidants, and beta-carotene. These endives help improve the digestive system, eliminate gases, control acidity, and favor intestinal mucosa. They contribute to regulating cholesterol, intestinal transit, eliminate toxins, have diuretic effects, improve blood circulation, and prevent arteriosclerosis.
