I am happy to be guest hosting Siri’s Healing Foods event for January 2012 with theme “Cauliflower”. Growing up cauliflower was one of my favorite veggie and I loved to eat it in any form, even raw. There is a giveaway for this event. Check below for details.
From Wiki
Cauliflower is low in fat, low in carbs but high in dietary fiber, folate, water, and vitamin C. Cauliflower contains several phytochemicals, common in the cabbage family, that may be beneficial to human health.
Sulforaphane, a compound released when cauliflower is chopped or chewed, may protect against cancer.
Boiling reduces the levels of these compounds, with losses of 20–30% after five minutes, 40–50% after ten minutes, and 75% after thirty minutes.A high intake of cauliflower has been associated with reduced risk of aggressive prostate cancer.
The event runs from 1st – 31st January 2012 and the rules are as follows.
