Day 3: Healthy and Balanced Plant Based Meal #Shorts
Cabbage Prevents Cancer. Here’s how.
Cruciferous vegetables. Have you heard of them?
They are super family of veggies. They have a special anti- cancer compound called Glucoraphanin in one part of their cells.
In another part, they separately store an enzyme called Myrosinase.
When an insect bites them, these two chemicals react and form Sulphoraphane. Like how Glow Sticks or Instant Ice Packs work.
Sulphoraphane is bitter. Insects don’t like. They fly away. Plant stays safe.
Sulphoraphane also protects you from cancer!
BUT one of the two chemicals, Myrosinase, gets destroyed while cooking.
So, how to prevent cancer while enjoying cooked cabbage? Add some extra Myrosinase afterwards! Like a bit of raw cabbage or mustard seeds.
That’s how we do it at sampoornaahara.com
