- Your mother said "eat your vegetables," and she was right. Take a look back at The Science of Broccoli...and Other Cruciferous Vegetables as we discover how a diet rich in vegetables can help prevent cancer.
The Science of Broccoli...and Other Cruciferous Vegetables is part of a special webinar series A Science Of... that will explore the science behind food. This session features Dr. Trygve Tollefsbol, professor of Biology at UAB.
The consumption of certain foods, notably vegetables, can contribute significantly to lowering the risk of developing cancer. The cruciferous vegetables, like broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, Brussel sprouts, and kale, are especially effective in preventing many cancers including breast cancer.
The amount of consumption and their combination with other food components as well as WHEN in life they are consumed can influence how effective cruciferous vegetables are in preventing cancer. This webinar will provide the basics about cruciferous vegetables and cancer prevention as well as the most recent advances in this exciting field.
Dr. Tollefsbol is a professor of Biology and senior scientist in the UAB Comprehensive Cancer Center, Center for Health Aging, Nutrition Obesity Research Center, and the Comprehensive Diabetes Center. He is director of the UAB Cell Senescence Culture Facility, which he established in 1999.
I am looking at the comments here and I think most of the questions (with the exception of the allergy one) are easily answered. Pressure cooking is a healthy form of cooking because the cooking time is greatly reduced... So it's not quite the same as boiling. There are steamer inserts in pressure cookers ... So it cooks (in steam) much quicker too.
Can you drink broccoli water?
Of course you can! But would you want to? If broccoli doesn't do you harm...then the water it's boiled in won't either.
I thought this lecture was excellent... Very informative with plenty of scientific expertise backing up the claims on how cruciferous vegetables (and broccoli in particular) is good for you. Thank you for posting this on you tube so that anyone can benefit from the considerable experience and knowledge of the professor.

What are the herbs for kidney stones
Can I consider chopping and light pressure cooking at low temperature as roughly asbebeficial as steaming? Thank you so mucch.
i you blend kale then cook it is good ,
Good presenter! He made a boring subject Interesting. Thank you the fasting part was interesting
Lightly Stir fry, add some water and cover to boil-steam, barely cooked, still deep green but not raw, and drink the water too!
Can cruciferous vegetables also help with the eyes??
Does anyone know if I can reverse a broccoli allergy? I would love to eat broccoli but I immediately start getting a histamine like reaction, itching, throat tightening up, eyes watering, etc. . thanks
🥦Hey, Brad, this guy is a dead beat I left him a comment.🥦 stay safe dude
Can I drink the broccoli water
I take Sulforaphane
Can I drink the water
Could be much shorter . Main points, supporting points and issues. Keep to the kis principle.
Someone tell him that "juicing" is the "art" of taking a perfectly healthy fruit or vegetable and separating pulp/pectin from the liquid. Pitching the pulp/pectin in the garbage & drinking straight up sugar water! Shameful! In my early days I would juice & after drinking about 16oz, I'd be ready to eat a whole dang meal. People pitch juices to give your "digestive system a rest" Bull or they are trying to sell a juicer. Green Smoothies are the best because they include the whole fruit and vegetable. Highly satiating!
DUDE You can't even answer your peoples' questions. I'm not going to waste my time on your video goodbye
