FAQ (Questions and Answers)
Will you prepare the linguine with zucchini and tuna?
In support of their deliciousness, there are also the beneficial properties this vegetable offers.
Zucchini are mostly composed of water and provide various minerals useful for well-being during the warmer months. They contain iron, calcium, and magnesium, but they are especially rich in potassium, which is good to remember to replenish in summer when it is lost in greater quantities through sweat. If consumed raw, they are also a good source of vitamin C.
