Fittingly, kale is high in vitamin K, which is topically applied to prevent and ease skin issues, including bruises, stretch marks, spider veins and swelling, although more evidence is needed to conclude its effectiveness.1 This is another versatile veggie that can be enjoyed raw or cooked. Pro tip: Spray lightly with cooking spray and add a little salt, then massage with your hands to soften the kale leaves. This makes a tasty bed for a hot entrée or used as the base for a salad — perfect when you want some wilt-proof leftovers.
