Why are Cruciferous Vegetables Important?

The first study reporting the benefits of cruciferous vegetables published in 1978.

How Cruciferous Vegetables Protect Your Health?

What is in cruciferous vegetables that protect your health? Besides having lots of vitamins, minerals and fibre, cruciferous vegetables are full of other vital plant nutrients called phytonutrients. Some of the first healthful phytonutrients identified by scientists were the carotenoids and flavonoids that help protect the lipid and water-soluble portions of the cells from damage.  However, the phytonutrients in cruciferous vegetables protect the cells in different ways.

Research has shown that the special protection afforded by the cruciferous phytonutrients lessens our risk of what scientists call 'hormonal mediated' cancers. That is to say, breast, prostate and lining of the uterus. Additionally, these phytonutrients also protect against, lung, colon and other digestive tract cancers.

How cruciferous vegetables and other plants help prevent cancer is not yet fully understood, but it is likely they:

• Boost production of enzymes that detoxify cancer-causing agents (carcinogens) and flush them out of the body,
• Prevent the conversion of 'good oestrogen' -  to 'bad oestrogen'
• Defend cells from the infiltration of 'bad' oestrogen
• Inhibit the formation of carcinogens.

In addition to reducing cancer risks, compounds in cruciferous vegetables, neutralise toxins, lower cholesterol, regulate the immune system and influence metabolism.
