Broccoli is a green winter vegetable packed with nutrients such as vitamin C and dietary fiber. It is also known as the “Crown Jewel of Nutrition” and its floral part is used as a food item. Broccoli is often eaten boiled or steamed or can be taken raw as well.
Broccoli is a good source of vitamins (K, A and C), calcium, phosphorus and zinc that are all involved in maintaining strong, healthy bones. It is also beneficial for skin problems as it protects the skin against UV damage and the high content of vitamin C (having anti-ageing property) promotes collagen production and improves overall skin health. Broccoli also helps manage blood sugar levels due to its anti-diabetic activity by increasing insulin secretion. Broccoli juice is rich in nutrients and low in calories which makes it beneficial for weight loss as well as improving overall health.
