HELLO HIVE

There many varieties of vegetable plants around that are very healthy to our body and water leaf is one of these plants, considered as a weed people around here use these vegetative plant in some of their dishes especially when making stew.

We cultivate this plant for its leaf part and some times we do not have to plant it the second year anymore because it easily dominates any part of the farm it starts growing in within a very short period of time.

These plant has many unique characteristics that is similar to weeds, the moisture content of this plant is unlike any other plant around my place and you can easily see how much moisture it has once you wash and fry the leaf which is how we do prepare it for stew.

I make good use of its ability to thrive in so many places without been given much care or attention by planting it with the ridges of my farm, with multiple seeds that are with a soft pod that will explode ones the seed is ripe it with flourish within a short while

Nutritional values of water leaf

A go source of both vitamin A and vitamin C.
According to research a diet having vitamin C reduces the risk of Alzheimer's Disease.

I know some people might not have had a taste of stew made with these leaf but I have to say that it is good.
