*Parsley is a bright green, biennial herb, also used as spice. Parsley is used for its leaf in much the same way as coriander. The flavonoids in parsley have been shown to function as antioxidants that combine with highly reactive oxygen-containing molecules and help prevent oxygen-based damage to cells.

They provide you all the goodies you need as long as you balance them with other root stock and high protein like fish, chicken, Meat, lobster, shrimp, scallops, calamari, etc
Hey I can help you on a few of them.
Tomatos contain Lycopene, which is a natural antioxidant.
Watercress contains vitamins A and C, and yield iron, calcium, folic acid (vitamin B9), and many other things as well (see website for the full body diagram).
Spinach is inriched with iron.
