It has tons of benefits
1.improves immunity
2.reduces risk of hypertension
3.regulates cholesterol
4.improves rbc's
5 reduces risk of gestational diabetes.
6.helps regulate electrolyte balance
Having said that it could have potential side effects too if not washed well as it grows in soil rich in toxoplasmosis which can lead to premature delivery. Hence washing it with a vegetable wash thoroughly is recommended.
If you have been previously allergic to it then it's best to avoid.
Cook it really well before consuming.
Try not to repeat the vegetable too many times in a week.
