Broccoli 20:1

History:

Broccoli is a branching, dark-green annual that derives its name from the Latin, bracchium, meaning "branch of trees" or "arm." The plant grows to about two feet in height with edible green heads and thick stems. It was first grown in Europe, most notably in Italy and France; however, its high degree of perfection was developed by Danish gardeners, and as a member of the cabbage family, it is one of the intermediate forms between wild cabbage and the cauliflower (for which it is the progenitor). The plant grows best in a cool, mild climate in a well-limed, loamy soil that is well irrigated. Broccoli did not become popular in the United States until the early twentieth century, but is now an extremely important crop, due to the fact that it is so revered for its nutritious and  health-promoting qualities. Broccoli is extremely high in nutrient content and loaded with chlorophyll and selenium, plus carotenoids, vitamins A, C, B-6, B-12, B-9 and K, fiber, calcium, iron, potassium and magnesium. Although in all cruciferous vegetables, the active plant chemical glucosinolates are most notably visible in Broccoli. These are metabolised by the body into isothiocyanates, which are now being studied for their remarkable health-giving and immune system properties, and the main isothiocyanate in Broccoli is the all-important sulforaphane.
