The Health Benefits of this Broccoli Dish
Broccoli is something we should be eating as often as possible to reap the numerous health benefits it gives us. There are so many great things that this superfood does for our bodies! Broccoli is full of vitamin B5; Broccoli is known to reduce inflammation, bolsters the immune system, protects against air pollution, keeps bones sturdier, lowers the risk of Chron’s disease, reduces the risk of breast cancer and helps detoxify the body. It promotes good gut health, which has a positive impact on our mental health. Broccoli improves immunity and is useful for reducing inflammation in tissue and regulating blood sugar.
If you are interested in getting more of this nutritionally impressive vegetable into your diet, I would recommend my Anti-Inflammatory Broccoli, Celery & Avocado soup. It’s ultra-creaminess makes it beyond enjoyable to eat, but I digress.
Aside from the broccoli, there are all sorts of goodness in this salad.
The spring onions in this salad will not only boost the flavour of the broccoli, but they will also boost your immune system, and we could all do with better immunity these days, and this salad is a great, tasty way to do it.
