Broccoli scrambled with tofu and coconut milk. Quick and easy.
Broccoli is high in fiber and nutrients, and it keeps the stomach full for a long time. A single bag of broccoli contains roughly 100 calories, roughly equivalent to two fast-food french fries.
Goitrogens are substances found in raw brassicas that can inhibit thyroid function; however, steaming or cooking deactivates these compounds.
Broccoli is the easiest of the cabbage family to digest. It is rich in pantothenic acid and vitamin A, and it even contains more vitamin C than citrus fruits. It provides a wonderful supply of sulfur, iron, and vitamin B naturally. Pitta and Kapha doshas will particularly benefit from it, while Vata can enjoy it in moderation.
