Its caloric intake is very low: only 20 kcal per 100 g. Valerianella is known for its refreshing and digestive properties because it stimulates the activity of the liver, kidneys, and intestines. It is also food with purifying, diuretic and revitalizing properties. Very digestible, generally suitable for those who cannot digest green salad and have a mildly irritated gastrointestinal system.
Since the valerian salad is washed well to remove the soil from it (and it is preferable to avoid packaging in which the product loses a good part of the micronutrients), the yellowed leaves must be removed. This green salad can be used as a base for any salad.

— clean green salad with some washed and coarsely grated celery,
— avocado cut into cubes and a couple of cubes of toasted wholemeal bread rubbed with a slice, i.e., It can be seasoned with a little oil, a little brown salt, marjoram, or basil and grated fresh ginger root.
