Brussels Sprouts
Brussels sprouts are a nutritious veggie of the cruciferous family. They are closely related to other leafy greens such as kohlrabi, cabbage, broccoli, and kale. Therefore, the veggies are filled with many minerals and vitamins, particularly folate. A cup of cooked Brussels sprouts would provide nearly 50 mcg or 12 percent of the recommended daily intake. Kaempferol in the food is a powerful antioxidant that can prevent oxidative stress and reduce inflammation. [6]
