Cauliflower is a cruciferous vegetable
(same family as cabbage, kale and broccoli); it’s an excellent source of
vitamin C, vitamin K, and folate. It is also a good source of vitamin B5,
potassium, dietary fibre, iron and other B vitamins. The nutrients cauliflower
provides support three body systems that are closely connected to cancer
prevention; these three systems are) the body's detox system, its antioxidant
system, and its inflammatory/anti-inflammatory system.
