Health Benefits of Broccoli

This list cannot exhaust the health benefits of broccoli but below are the most conspicuous.

Boosts the Immune System

Broccoli is packed with numerous vitamins from A, C, K, B9, etc. The vitamins increase the production of more white blood cells for more immunity.  In addition, it has a potent antioxidant, glutathione, that reduces cell damage. The chemical protects the cells from inflammation and possible damage.

Reduces Risk of Cancer

Broccoli is a cruciferous vegetable; they have low calories but are rich in foliate, minerals, and vitamins. These types of vegetables have bioactive compounds and antioxidants to reduce cell damage. Another antioxidant that Broccoli contains is sulforaphane which is associated with the bitter taste in broccoli.

Research indicates that broccoli helps prevent breast, prostate, and bladder cancer. Other cruciferous vegetables include kales and cabbage.

Promotes Heart Health

Research shows that broccoli consumption lowers cardiovascular disease and other heart diseases. Broccoli contains fibre, antioxidants, and many other minerals, including potassium. These components help prevent cardiovascular diseases.

The American Heart Association confirms that increasing the intake of minerals, especially potassium relaxes the blood vessels. As a result, it lowers the risk of high blood pressure, and atherosclerosis, among other heart problems.

Aids in Blood Sugar Control

Doctors advise patients with type 2 diabetes to eat broccoli in their daily meals. As aforementioned, Broccoli contains sulforaphane that reduces insulin resistance in patients’ bodies.

Additionally, eating broccoli increases dietary fibre intake. Fibre-rich foods are associated with low blood sugar and enhanced diabetic control.

Reduces Inflammation

Usually, inflammation occurs when the human body is under attack from allergies and germs. It is usually a sign that the body is resisting a particular infection. Inflammation is common amongst people with arthritis and diabetes( type 1).

The sulforaphane in broccoli fights inflammation by reducing the reaction between the infection and the cells. A study by the London School of Hygiene and Tropica Medicine found that eating broccoli reduces inflammation.
