Broccoli

Cruciferous vegetables, which include broccoli, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, and kale, are an important part of your diet, and in some people, eating them on a regular basis may help prevent lung and colorectal cancer.

Broccoli has been linked to a number of beneficial properties. It's particularly high in important micronutrients including potassium and vitamins A, B6, and C. It also includes kaempferol, a potent compound that has been demonstrated in test-tube tests to neutralize disease-causing free radicals, reduce inflammation, and inhibit cancer cell growth. Furthermore, one recent research of 960 people found that consuming one serving of green vegetables high in kaempferol and other antioxidants per day may help to slow age-related cognitive decline.
