*Like cabbage and cauliflower, broccoli is packed with vitamins. It is an excellent source of the antioxidants beta carotene, and vitamins C and E. It also provides good amounts of the B vitamins niacin and B6 and useful amounts of folate. All these vitamins protect and strengthen the heart and blood supply.
