You know very well that calcium is the key for strong bones, but some researchers have identified something else we need, and it's vitamin K. This can be found in broccoli, spinach and other dark leafy vegetables. Vitamin K is believed to help calcium deposit in the bones, making them more dense. And when your bones are stronger, the whole body becomes stronger too, and the lower your chances of an injury that could cause back pain. So remember to add more broccoli, spinach and other leafy greens in your diet, they will help your bones become stronger. :)
I love broccoli, it's my favorite veggie! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI owed it to my husband that's why I can eat broccoli now! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat tips! I've never liked broccoli. Still don't but I force myself to eat it anyway because I know that it is good for me. I do eat a lot of spinach, though.
ReplyDeleteHaven't tried spinach yet but i so much love eating brocolli. Mura lang ba ang brocolli dyan sa Manila?
ReplyDelete:-) Happy weekend, Liz
I love eating broccoli but with eating tons of broccoli you end up with gas which is the down side lol I despise spinach and kale. You'd have to mix it with something else for me to eat it.
ReplyDeleteWe had broccoli salad last Friday, and it was delish!
ReplyDeleteI put your badge on. Thanks for the reminder. Fondly
ReplyDeleteWhat is the taste of a brocoli... but I think this is one healthy food... You are the best Health Prescriptionist ever...
ReplyDeleteHey Liza,
ReplyDeleteI love broccoli and spinach (I make wonderful spinach salads Mmmm).
I didn't know broccoli had vitamin K though; so it was good to read this article :D!
Cheers
