Key Components And Potential Benefits Of Parmesan Seasoning:

  • Garlic Powder: Garlic is known for its strong, aromatic flavor. Besides flavor, it contains allicin, a compound with antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. Garlic’s health benefits also include cardiovascular health.
  • Parmesan Cheese: Parmesan cheese adds a rich, savory, and salty flavor to the seasoning. If you take cheese in moderation, it is a good source of calcium and protein.
  • Herbs and Spices (Oregano, Basil, Parsley): These add depth and complexity to the seasoning. Each herb and spice offers its potential health benefits. For example, oregano and basil contain antioxidants, while parsley is a good source of vitamins like vitamin K and vitamin C.
  • Red Pepper Flakes: The major component in the pepper, capsaicin, is a compound responsible for the spiciness in peppers and has many health benefits. Including red pepper flakes in the seasoning gives you a perfect pain relieving agent and metabolic booster, among other properties.

Note:

  1. Though Garlic Parmesan seasoning has health benefits, please do not use it as medication for your condition. Always follow your physician’s instructions when taking herbs and spices.
