    Janel Reeves

    Master of Science in Nutritional Science · 4 years of exp

The high antioxidant level alone can help promote long-term health when consumed as a part of a healthy diet over time. Be mindful of what you dip your artichokes in or how you eat them, as sometimes that dip or sauce is a source of additional calories, as well as fat.
