Broccoli is a member of the cabbage family, and is closely related to cauliflower. Its cultivation originated in Italy. Broccolo, its Italian name, means “cabbage sprout.” Because of its different components, broccoli provides a range of tastes and textures, from soft and flowery (the floret) to fibrous and crunchy (the stem and stalk). Broccoli contains glucosinolates, phytochemicals which break down to compounds called indoles and isothiocyanates (such as sulphoraphane). Broccoli also contains the carotenoid, lutein. Broccoli is an excellent source of the vitamins K, C, and A, as well as folate and fiber. Broccoli is a very good source of phosphorus, potassium, magnesium and the vitamins B6 and E.

My grandfather died of pancreatic cancer. By the time the first symptom arose—a dull ache in his gut—it was too late. That’s why we need to prevent it in the first place.

I previously touched on pancreatic cancer prevention in Largest Study Ever (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/largest-study-ever/) and Poultry Exposure Tied to Liver and Pancreatic Cancer (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/poultry-exposure-tied-to-liver-and-pancreatic-cancer/) and attempts at pancreatic cancer treatment in Gerson Therapy for Cancer (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/gerson-therapy-for-cancer/) and Gerson-style Therapy vs. Chemotherapy (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/gerson-therapy-vs-chemotherapy/).
