Guess what the healthiest vegetable is.


If you guessed broccoli or spinach was the healthiest vegetable, you’re not even close. 

Researchers at New Jersey's William Paterson University compiled a list of powerhouse fruits and vegetables, or PVFs, based on nutrient density and watercress scored a perfect 100. It was the only produce that aced the test. Spinach came in at number four with a score of 86.4 and broccoli didn’t even make the top ten. They include:

1. Watercress 

2. Chinese cabbage 

3. Chard Beet greens 

4. Spinach 

5. Chicory Leaf lettuce 

6. Parsley 

7. Romaine lettuce 

8. Collard greens
