Benefits these veggies have to offer:
Help in fighting belly fat
Bingo! They are winners already! They have the unique ability to fight off environmental estrogens and estrogens consumed in the form of food. We are exposed to estrogen through soya, plastics, and pesticides present around us. A special phytonutrient found in cruciferous veggies helps in fighting the unwanted estrogen. If you may ask what is wrong with estrogen, then let me tell you that environmental estrogens have been associated with high levels of belly fat. So by consuming more member veggies of the cruciferous family you are actually fighting off belly fat stores. Great isn’t it?
Improve digestion, increase satiety and help in weight loss
Vegetables of the cruciferous family are high in fibre. Fibre is known to help in keeping the digestive system healthy as well as making one feel full for a longer period of time. Several studies have also shown that an increase in fibre intake helps in loss of weight and keep you fit.
Improve the health of the gut and increase immunity
Apart from reducing belly fat and improving digestion these veggies have other benefits to offer too. It was recently published in a renowned journal that certain proteins found in cruciferous vegetables may have an important role to play when it comes to gut health. They are known to boost the production of immune cells and combat bacterial infections, inflammation and may even prevent bowel cancer.
Anti-ageing
Now, who wants to look young always? All of you, right? Eating cruciferous veggies can help you look young! It has been found in a research that these veggies have antioxidant and anti-ageing properties to boast of. In one study it has been found that people who happened to consume 1 to 2 cups of cruciferous veggies in a day reduced free radical damage by twenty two percent within a span of 3 weeks. Free radicals attack cells and this leads to ageing. If you want to look young then you should make it point to include cauliflowers, cabbage and radish in your diet.
