Often when making a salad, we don't realize just how many calories we've assembled. After all , it's just a salad! But remember peas have 70 calories, salsify 77 and avocado 161!

Asparagus – Diuretic because of the asparagine it contains. Depurative, tonic. Cooked. 

Carrot – Carrots, in juice form, are useful for revitalizing the liver and are an excellent morning tonic.

Celery – Excellent for slimming, since it satisfies hunger while being low in calories. Diuretic and tonic – plain.

Chicory (Endive)
Useful for reducing – in the 18th century, when people commonly ate heavy high-fat meals, the French aristocracy embraced a new, lighter cuisine. To those suffering from indigestion, gout, apoplexy and kidney complaints because they continued eating rich foods, doctors of the new school recommended fasting and an inner cleansing using wild chicory infusions, a 24-hour treatment that can be repeated after 2 weeks if necessary.

Cabbage
The Romans believed that cabbage chased away melancholy. Very rich in vitamins and minerals, cabbage provides the elements necessary to revitalize us after the winter when our system tends to be at a low ebb.

Cress
Detoxifier, revitalizer – plain

Eggplant – Diuretic. A stimulant for the liver and intestines. Eggplant contains elements that trap cholesterol in the intestines, which then eliminate it from the body. It thus helps prevent the fatty build-up that can form around the heart. Cooked to a purée.

Fennel
The dieter’s companion, fennel is a good match for fatty fish and green fruits. Greeks called it “marathon,” derived from “mariano,” meaning to slim down.

Radish
Good for slimming because it is low in calories, and can be eaten raw as an appetite suppressant.
