Why Do We Love Cauliflower?

Pizza, rice, wings...what can cauliflower NOT do?!

Ana and I LOVE veggies, but we find ourselves usually buying bell peppers, garlic, squash, leafy greens, and some other randos in there. Broccoli rates pretty high on the list as well. Recently, though, we have been falling in love with a vegetable that is proving to be very versatile! The Cauliflower! Let us tell you why.

High in nutrients, cauliflower is an excellent source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, vitamin K, vitamin B6, folate, and potassium. It's extremely low in calories, making it a great addition to a weight loss diet. Cauliflower contains antioxidants that can help to protect against cellular damage. It may promotes gut health. Cauliflower contains a type of carbohydrate called inulin, which acts as a prebiotic, feeding the friendly bacteria in the gut.

Additionally, some studies have suggested that cauliflower may have anti-cancer properties and may reduce the risk of certain types of cancer. Studies have also found that cauliflower has been found to have anti-inflammatory effects, which may help to reduce the risk of chronic diseases. Finally, the vitamins and minerals found in cauliflower, as well as its anti-inflammatory properties, may help to improve heart health.

Add this amazing vegetable to your diet, Fitness and Travel Lovers!
