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.

Patient choice over treatment and care is a central feature of the UK’s National Health System, and patients’ experience of treatment and care is a major indicator of quality. But it isn’t easy to find out how well a treatment has worked.

Find out how a group of Oxford University researchers pioneered the use of questionnaires about hip and knee replacements, and revolutionized how patients’ experience could be used to assess and improve the UK’s healthcare.

DESCRIPTION: To help deflect criticism from the cholesterol content of their product, the egg industry touts the benefits of two phytonutrients, lutein and zeaxanthin, that have indeed been shown to be beneficial in protecting one’s eyesight against vision threatening conditions such as cataracts and macular degeneration. But how do eggs stack up against plant-based sources? Have a question about this video? Leave it in the comment section at https://nutritionfacts.org/videos/egg-industry-blind-spot/ and I’ll try to answer it! For more on the egg industry’s misrepresentation of the facts, see my Avoiding cholesterol is a no brainer (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/avoiding-cholesterol-is-a-no-brainer/) and Egg cholesterol in the diet (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/egg-cholesterol-in-the-diet/) videos on their scrambling of cholesterol science.
