A recent scientific publication by CAPNUTRA and Aristotle University of Thessaloniki explores the diverse benefits of green leafy vegetables (GLVs). Packed with antioxidants and essential nutrients, GLVs contribute significantly to human health by reducing risks of chronic diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Sustainable cultivation of GLVs also enhances soil fertility, biodiversity, and supports rural livelihoods through job creation. Eco-friendly farming practices reduce environmental impacts like runoff and greenhouse gas emissions, making GLVs a cornerstone for resilient and sustainable agricultural systems.
