Unexpected benefits of cauliflower
It is best to eat cauliflower raw, as heat treatment eliminates a special vegetable substance that can protect the body from cancer.
In addition to vitamins and minerals, cauliflower contains sulforaphane, a substance that can destroy cancer cells.
“Cauliflower is protective against tumors, and all cruciferous ones contain sulforaphane, a substance that really prevents cancer cells from behaving malignantly, preventing them from multiplying rapidly and receiving nutrition through the vessels,” said nutrition expert, Mikhail Ginzburg.
The specialist noted that the best way to eat this vegetable is to eat it raw, since sulforaphane is destroyed during heat treatment.
He added that cauliflower should not be included in the diet of people suffering from gout, as for others – this is a very useful product.
