Horseradish Dried Cut Root

Horseradish originated in Southern Europe and Western Asia, where it has been referenced throughout history. The power and importance of this root have been known for thousands of years and it is now available across the world.

The health benefits of horseradish are mainly attributed to its high nutrient and mineral content, which includes dietary fiber, vitamin C, folate, potassium, calcium, magnesium, zinc, and manganese, as well as its organic chemical composition of enzymes and oils, like sinigrin, a powerful glucosinolate.

Horseradish is a powerful and pungent plant connected to a wide variety of health benefits, including its ability to aid in weight loss, lower blood pressure, alleviate respiratory conditions, build strong bones, improve the immune system, stimulate healthy digestion, promote heart health, and lower the chances of neural tube defects in infants. Most notably, horseradish can prevent cancer due to its extremely high levels of glucosinolates.
