Broccoli powder-organic-freeze-dried-60g

Broccoli was initially a popular vegetable in Italy ("broccoli" = cabbage sprouts) and from there it made its way to other European countries in the 16th century, before the vegetable made its way to the USA. This representative of the cruciferous family trumps its "relatives" such as cauliflower in many ways: Its vitamin C content is almost twice as high and the green flower buds contain a lot of ß-carotene and other things. also magnesium and calcium. What is particularly interesting about broccoli, however, is the content of very special bioactive plant constituents such as glucosinolates, the conversion of which in the body leads to the reaction products isothiocyanates (e.g. sulfurophane). These are considered to be particularly beneficial to health and are currently the subject of numerous medical-scientific studies. Cancer researchers in particular are interested in the green “heads”.
