Cauliflower
Cauliflower is an excellent source of vitamin C, vitamin K,
folate, pantothenic acid, and vitamin B6. It is a very good source of choline,
dietary fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, manganese, phosphorus, and biotin. While cauliflower is not a well-studied
cruciferous vegetable from a health standpoint, you will find several dozen
studies linking cauliflower-containing diets to cancer prevention, particularly
with respect to the following types of cancer: bladder cancer, breast cancer,
colon cancer, prostate cancer, and ovarian cancer. In addition, cauliflower also contains
phytonutrients called glucosinolates that can help activate detoxification
enzymes and regulate their activity. The
detox support provided by cauliflower includes antioxidant nutrients to boost
Phase 1 detoxification activities and sulfur-containing nutrients to boost
Phase 2 activities.
Coconut
Coconut helps prevent obesity by speeding up metabolism, providing
an immediate source of energy with fewer calories than other fats. People who consistently use coconut products,
report a stronger ability to go without eating for several hours with no
affects of hypoglycemia. Due to the fact that coconut has been known to reduce sweet cravings and improves insulin secretion and
utilization of blood glucose. The
