 Did you know that there is a vegetable that is related to the wild cabbage, full of vitamin C, detoxes your body and has major anti-oxidant effects? It’s true and its your vegetable friend the cauliflower! Cauliflower is part of the Brassica oleracea family, and you’re wondering what does that mean?! Basically its cousins are broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbage and kale. Yes, kale too! Its believed that cauliflower traces back to the wild cabbage that resembled kale or collard greens. It obviously transformed over time and later came to look just like how we see it now. That’s the history, but the real deal is its health benefits. Its a cruciferous vegetable that has been studied for three major benefits: detox, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidize. It is nutrient-dense with 8 major phytonutrients and anti-oxidants that prevent oxidative stress on our cells. Next, there are two phases in detoxifying your body. Cauliflower has enzymes and anti-oxidants that play major roles in both of those phases. Aren’t convinced? Here is two other major nutrients you need to help support immunity and blood: Vitamin C at 73%, Vitamin K at 19% and folate at 14%.
