Broccoli Benefits
One of our most nutritious and studied vegetables, broccoli’s powerful disease-fighting properties give it the ability to protect against many common cancers. People who eat an abundance of broccoli have a significantly reduce incidence of cancers of the colon, breast, cervix, lungs, prostate, esophagus, larynx, and bladder.
While other cruciferous vegetable are protective, it seems to have more cancer-causing compounds. Some of these block the action of hormones that stimulate tumors; others work by inhibiting tumor growth or by boosting the action of protective enzymes. It contains glucosinolates, which, once ingested, break down into healthful compounds, including indoles, sulforaphane, and isothiocyanates, all of which may be cancer fighters. The most interesting compound is sulforaphane, which shows decided anticancer activity in both cultured rat and human cells. Broccoli sprouts are roughly fifty times richer in sulforaphane than mature one. It is also high in bioflavonoids, including quercetin and other phytochemicals that protect cells against mutation and damage from unstable molecules.
This vegetable has an abundance of essential vitamins and minerals. A 1-cup serving of cooked vegetable contains only 44 calories, yet it provides more than 100 percent of the Recommended Dietary Allowance(RDA) of vitamin C, 20 percent of the RDA for folate, and a healthy amount of beta carotene. A cup of vegetable also provides 75 gram of calcium, 1.2 mg of iron, and 5 gram of protein. Because one cup of cooked broccoli has 3.5 gram of fiber and contains natural laxatives, it is often suggested to prevent constipation.
Fresh broccoli is available year-round; frozen one is just as nutritious. Florets turning yellow are past their prime and less nutritious. It can be eaten rwa, but most people prefer it cooked. Steaming or Stir-Fried it until crispy tender retains the most nutrients; boiling it in a large amount of water destroys many of the cancer-causing compounds, vitamin C, and other nutrients.
