Here I want to share the other benefits we can get from broccoli:

Overcome the Flank Problems

Broccoli is good to overcome constipation because of its high nutrition of fiber and fivonoid. As we know that fiber is a vital nutrition for the digestion system. The newest research said that broccoli prevents the digestion problem such as maag, flank infection, and the colon cancer. The Japanesse experts found the fact that by consuming 70 gram of broccoli everyday for 2 months can overcome the entire digestion problems. The most important substance contained in the broccoli is sulforaphane which is important also for the liver enzime production. The enzime functions as the filter of carcinogens and removes them from the cell. Moreover, the sulforaphane functions as the prevention of Helicobacter pylori (the bacteria which can cause digestion problem). In the medic, the bacteria is called as the main cause of the colon cancer.

Prevents the Damage of the Blood Vessel Cells

The researchers of Warwick University believes that sulforaphane can restore the damaged blood vessel because of the excessive amount of the sugar blood (hyperglicemia) as the effect of diabetes.
