NUTRITION INFORMATION:
Parsnips are high in dietary fiber, vitamin C, vitamin K, folate, manganese, and potassium. These nutrients play a significant cardio-protective role. Butternut squash is most abundant in beta-carotene, offering very powerful anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that help disable the process of chosterol oxidation in your body. Cranberries rank among the highest fruits in antioxidant activity, offering a myriad of health properties ranging from treating urinary tract infection to helping fight cancer and cardiovascular disease.
