Health Benefits of Pizza

Being one of the most popular dishes in almost any city, country or continent, pizza attracts the taste buds of even the non junkies, absolute health conscious citizens, as they are able to find a way around to make their pizza slice as healthy as possible.

Economical:
Some of the best restaurants in Delhi serve the most delicious pizza. But most of these charge a high prize, especially after the inclusion of all forms of taxes and the added price of the locational experience. The best trick to enjoy unlimited pizza at a reasonable prize is to cook it at home. All you need is a pizza crust, tomato sauce, cheese and your choice of chopped vegetables and, of course, an oven! It’s the easiest, cheapest and the quickest way to make a filling meal at home, with limited efforts.

Improves Calcium Intake:

Two main components used to make any form of pizza is cheese and tomato sauce. Little had we known that both these components contain Calcium, making pizza a great source of calcium. Calcium helps you maintain the strength of your bones and improve the functionality of your nerves, blood vessels and muscles. If you further add layers of Broccoli, Artichoke, Spinach or sea food to your pizza as toppings, the calcium component will increase. Some of the popular Italian restaurants in Delhi curate extremely healthy and personalised pizzas for the pizza lovers.



Eat multiple vegetables:
Most of us are forced to eat vegetables. Although it is very important to have a sufficient intake of vegetables regularly, it becomes equally difficult to stuff them inside your stomach. This is because most of us dislike the taste of vegetables and find it very boring to eat them. How about ordering a pizza, or baking one at home, loaded with your favourite vegetable toppings on top of the cheese.

You can add broccoli, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, capsicum and a mix of other vegetables. This is the best form of a quick and healthy meal, which is a delicious way to improve your vegetables intake. 

Anti Oxidants in Deep Dish:
Chicago style of pizza contain much more antioxidants than other pies. This is because the oven time used up in cooking them is much more due to the deeper crust size. In case of whole wheat Pizza Crust, longer baking time increases the antioxidants up to 60% and higher oven temperatures increases them by 82%. This makes Pizza all the more healthier!
