Oregano

4.3

Herbs share a few properties. One of them being that they can be bought and used fresh, dried at home from fresh or bought dried. Nutrient quantities can vary wildly based on which of those categories of herbs you’re consuming. Unfortunately, nutrition data is usually not available for fresh herbs.

One thing to consider is that herbs are usually consumed in quantities that make it so you’re more interested in the various polyphenols, alkaloids, terpenes etc - many of which exhibit promising health benefits - than you are vitamin, mineral or macro content as it applies to your broader diet.

Highlights
