Why?

Because when they're raw, there's an enzyme in them called myrosinase.

Okay, myrosinase?

Myrosinase.

Okay.

And that enzyme is really magical for trying to absorb the phytonutrients that are in the broccoli, the cauliflower, the Brussels sprouts, the arugula, etc.

better and more effectively.

Now, if you forget about it or you're at a restaurant and they bring your steamed broccoli, no sweat.

But, you know, it's kind of fun to think, how can I get the most out of this vegetable that's possible?

Eat it raw.

Or if you want to eat it cooked, just nibble on a little bit raw before you cook it.

You know, that's so interesting.

And a lot of people may struggle with this in the beginning because their gut microbiome is a mess.

So the more we introduce these foods into our dietary pattern, the better you do with it.

But listen, everyone is an individual.

And some people may struggle with eating these raw.

Some people may not tolerate broccoli.

You should listen to your body and the harmony of your body.

There's a lot of internal wisdom in the body.

So if a woman comes in and says, oh, I can't stand broccoli.
