18 Dec 2019 --- Watercress presents a lucrative opportunity for the sports nutrition segment, according to the UK-based Watercress Company. Managing Director Tom Amery and Nutrition Consultant Dr. Lucy Williamson tell NutritionInsight how the vegetable’s high levels of nutrients such as antioxidants, vitamin C and protein give watercress a formidable nutritional profile. This makes it a promising ingredient for use in sports drinks and further NPD as consumers lose interest in processed gels and supplements.
