Zucchini provides fiber, folate, and potassium for healthy cellular function, along with vitamin C and carotenoids, offering antioxidant benefits. Sesame seeds are mineral-rich with notable amounts of copper, manganese, and calcium. They also provide a beneficial substance called sesamin, found to support healthy cholesterol and protect the liver. Garlic is rich in powerful sulfur-containing compounds, which supports liver health and cardiovascular function; it also offers anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antiviral benefits.
