Broccoli and Cancer

WRITTEN BY  Margaret Peters- 20 March 2012

A very good reason not to neglect that broccoli on your plate.

No wonder Mom would always make a point of making you eat your broccoli! Although seen as the enemy to many of my friends when we were younger, I personally never had a problem with broccoli.

Referred to by my Mom as “little trees,” I would eat my broccoli as if I was a giant and the broccoli were…you guessed it, small trees (I was a very “imaginative” child…). To me, a dinner that included broccoli (although not necessarily delicious to my tiny taste buds) was fun.

Which is why I was very happy to learn that, according to a new study published in Nutrition and Cancer, broccoli may have anti-cancer benefits.
