Broccolini contains a high amount of potassium, magnesium, and calcium that help regulate blood pressure. One cup of broccolini contains a day's supply of vitamin C, and high levels vitamin K. It also contains glucoraphanin, which the body processes into the anti-cancer compound sulforaphane. Glucoraphanin also helps the skin to detoxify and repair itself. Broccolini bolsters the immune system with a large dose of beta-carotene, along with trace minerals, such as zinc and selenium. Broccolini contains indole-3-carbinol, a powerful antioxidant compound and anti-carcinogen that not only hinders the growth of breast, cervical, and prostate cancer, but also boosts liver function. Broccolini is high in fiber, and a cup of broccolini has as much protein as a cup of rice or corn with half the calories. Along with vitamin A, the carotenoid lutein in broccolini helps prevent age-related macular degeneration and cataracts, along with fighting cancer. Lutein may also slow down or prevent the thickening of arteries in the human body, thus fighting against Heart disease and stoke. The B6 and folate in broccolini also reduce the risk of atherosclerosis, heart attack, and stroke.
