1. Slows down the aging process, protects the skin and body from free radicals

Broccoli contains many powerful antioxidants such as vitamin C, beta-carotene, lutein and especially sulforaphane – a rare plant active ingredient that can protect cells.

These substances help neutralize free radicals – which are the culprits that damage cells, promote the aging process and make the skin wrinkled and dull quickly. Free radicals are also associated with many chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, and diabetes.

To maximize the anti-aging benefits, women should steam broccoli instead of boiling it to retain vitamins and enzymes. Combining it with olive oil, butter or dishes rich in good fats will help the body better absorb oil-soluble antioxidants.

2. Purifies the liver, supports the body’s natural detoxification

Broccoli is rich in sulforaphane – a natural compound that activates detoxifying enzymes in the liver.
The liver is the body’s “garbage disposal” organ. When the liver functions well, toxins are easily metabolized and eliminated, helping women feel lighter and healthier. And of course, when the body is “clean”, the skin is also brighter and more even-toned.
