Recent research also indicates that the regular consumption of broccoli sprouts may reduce high blood pressure, risk of heart disease and stroke.

As it is found that the heat used in cooking brassica vegetables, can destroy some of the valuable healthgiving properties; perhaps, using them raw, in salads, coleslaw and sauerkraut, could be the best way of getting all the goodies. As broccoli, kale and Brussels sprouts are very high in sulforaphane, we do our liver a good service by eating these vegetables regularly, as the liver is able to use it for converting toxins into nontoxic waste.
