About Broccoli one cup
Broccoli, commonly used in cuisines worldwide, is a nutrient-packed vegetable originating from the Mediterranean region. One cup of cooked broccoli contains approximately 55 calories, 4 grams of fiber, 4 grams of protein, and an abundance of vitamins such as Vitamin C, Vitamin K, and folate. It is also rich in calcium, potassium, and iron, making it a superior choice for supporting bone health and immune function. Broccoli is loaded with antioxidants, including sulforaphane, which is known for its properties in reducing inflammation and potentially lowering the risk of certain chronic diseases. Low in calories and fat-free, it’s an ideal addition to a balanced diet. However, individuals with thyroid concerns should moderate intake due to the presence of goitrogens, which might impact thyroid function when consumed excessively. Versatile in cooking, broccoli fits well in stir-fries, salads, soups, or simply steamed as a side dish.
