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.

Classification :
Carbohydrates may be classified into two broad groups.
1. Sugars and
2. Non-sugars or polysaccharides.

Sugars : Sugars are sweet crystalline substances and soluble in water.

Monosaccharides : The monosaccharides are polyhydroxy aldehydes or polyhydroxy ketones which cannot be hydrolysed into simpler sugars.
They may again be classified according to the nature of carbonyl group.
(a) Aldoses, which contain an aldehyde group
(b) Ketoses, which contain a keto group
The aldoses and ketoses are further divided into sub-groups on the basis of the number of carbon atoms in their molecules, as trioses, tetroses, pentoses, hexoses etc.
Thus monosaccharides are generally referred to as aldotrioses, aldotetroses, aldopentoses, aldohexoses, ketohexoses etc.
