Broccoli health benefits

Broccoli originated in Italy (in ancient Roman times) where it existed since 6th Century BC. Broccoli was cultivated from wild cabbage – actually the broccoli is a close relative of cabbage and cauliflower. Italians call it “broccolo” which means the flowering top of a cabbage. Broccoli mostly can be found in Europe and the Mediterranean countries. In USA broccoli was introduced by Italian immigrants. The largest cultivator of broccoli in the world is China, followed by India, but the main consumers remain western countries.
