Broccoli

Broccoli is perhaps the most versatile item on this list. It can be eaten in just about any form and added to many different dishes. Because broccoli has a high fibre content, it acts as a detoxifying agent within the body. Broccoli is also high in sulforaphane, which helps to protect the walls of the stomach and regulate bacteria growth in the digestive system. Adding just one cup of broccoli (cooked or raw) to any meal provides twenty-one percent of the recommended daily intake of fibre.

Cabbage is known as a 'smart-carb', meaning it is low in fat but high in fibre and energy. One cup of cooked, red cabbage contains around sixteen percent of the daily recommended intake of fibre. Cabbage also helps the body regulate blood sugar and remove toxins from the body. In addition, the juice from cabbage has been used to treat stomach ulcers, which gives credence to the health properties of this vegetable.
