Chen Xuehan cauliflower is one of the vegetables that people like to eat. It has a white and lustrous color, a tender texture, and is light and delicious when cooked. Modern scientific research has confirmed that cauliflower contains protein, fat, carotene, vitamins A, B, C, D, and minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, iron, selenium, potassium, and magnesium. All these nutrients are indispensable for the human body. Flower tea is also known as the "doctor of the poor", and its historical origin can be traced back to the mid-18th century. At that time in Europe, there was a kind of medicinal liquid called "Buhalf syrup", which was made by mixing cauliflower juice with honey. It was used at that time to treat tuberculosis and cough, and the therapeutic effect was very good. Moreover, its relatively low price makes it very popular among the poor, and it has indeed saved many lives for the poor. With the in-depth research on cauliflower, scientists have recently discovered that cauliflower has a unique role in cancer prevention and treatment. Especially in the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer and breast cancer, the effect is even better. Studies show that when one has gastric cancer, the level of selenium in the human serum drops significantly, and the concentration of vitamin C in gastric juice is also significantly lower than that of normal people. Cauliflower not only provides people with a certain amount of selenium and vitamin C, but also supplies rich carotene, which can prevent the formation of precancerous lesion cells and curb the growth of cancer. In addition, the onset of breast cancer is related to the level of estrogen in the human body. The higher the concentration of estrogen, the greater the risk of developing breast cancer. According to the research of American nutritionists, it was found that cauliflower contains an ammonia compound - indole. The indole substances in cauliflower can not only degrade the active estrogen in the body, but also prevent the stimulating effect of active estrogen on breast cells through inactive estrogen, thus playing a role in anti-cancer and cancer prevention. Therefore, experts in the fields of nutrition and medicine suggest that people with stomach problems and women, especially those with a family history of breast cancer, those who have not given birth or breastfed, and those who enter menopause later, should eat more cauliflower to prevent the occurrence of breast cancer, stomach cancer and other cancers.
