2. Disadvantages: Broccoli is cold and sweet, and it is a green leafy vegetable. It has the effects of moistening intestines and lungs and promoting digestion. However, due to its cold nature, it is very easy to affect our gastrointestinal physical and mental health. So if we eat too much, the gastrointestinal tract will catch cold, which is not good for the gastrointestinal tract. For those with spleen and stomach deficiency and cold, it is easy to cause stomach discomfort such as diarrhea and abdominal pain. Broccoli is a high-fiber vegetable, which contains dietary fiber. If taken properly, it can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and common defecation. But if you take it in large quantities, it is also very easy to cause indigestion. Although dietary fiber can help us to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, it is difficult to digest and absorb dietary fiber in human body. Eating too much broccoli at a time will aggravate gastrointestinal pressure and cause indigestion.
