Broccoli is a great food for a number of reasons, including the fact that it is a significant source of calcium along with many other things. It has a significant amount of phosphorous in it which is something that everyone needs to keep their bones strong.

In order to get the most out of the broccoli you bring home from the store in terms of vitamins and nutrients, it will be important to wash it thoroughly and store it properly.

You will also want to think about collecting quite a bit of it and breaking it into pieces, peeling the stem so that it will be just a little bit more tender and boiling it with cloves of garlic for flavor.
