Health benefits

1. Leeks contain allicin which is anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral. When digested, it produces sulfenic acid that neutralizes free radicals. Leeks also contain vitamin K, folic acid, manganese, and other nutrients. They are rich in polyphenols and contain kaempferol, a flavonoid that helps protect blood vessel lining. Leeks deserve a place in an anti-aging diet.
