Broccoli is the most nutritious vegetable. Is this correct?
Although broccoli belongs to a kind of green leafy vegetable with high nutritional value, it is obviously wrong to say that it has the highest nutrition. It is not credible to exaggerate the nutritional value of a certain food. (Constantly update the knowledge of health and wellness, and know it early.

The most prominent nutrition of broccoli is that it is rich in beta carotene, and the content of beta carotene per100g of broccoli is 72 10/0g, which is higher than that of carrots. Dietary fiber content is very high. Every100g of broccoli contains1.6g of dietary fiber, and half of broccoli can provide about 5g of dietary fiber. The content of vitamin C in broccoli is relatively high, about 5 1 mg/100 g, which is higher than that in oranges and strawberries. The calcium content of broccoli is also relatively high, with 67 mg of calcium per 100 g, but the calcium content of broccoli is not the highest among vegetables. The calcium content of rape, mustard, shepherd's purse, red amaranth and other vegetables is higher than that of broccoli. (Constantly update the knowledge of health and wellness, and know it early.

The potassium content of broccoli is very low, only 17 mg/100 g, far lower than most vegetables, and basically at the bottom of the ranking of potassium content of green leafy vegetables. The survey shows that the sodium intake of Chinese residents is generally too high, while the potassium intake is insufficient. Adding foods rich in potassium to the diet can reduce the amount of salt in cooking, which is conducive to controlling blood pressure and preventing hypertension and stroke. Therefore, we should eat more vegetables rich in potassium in our daily diet, such as spinach, carrots and tomatoes. (Constantly update the knowledge of health and wellness, and know it early.
