Asparagus is low in both calories and sodium. They are also an excellent source of vitamin B6, calcium, magnesium, and zinc.So what else do they offer? Well, there’s vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin K, thiamin, riboflavin, rutin, niacin, folic acid, iron, phosphorus, potassium, copper, manganese, and selenium (whew, I’m running out of breath).
