The benefits of Broccoli

 Steamed broccoli is a perfect accompaniment to most dishs.  It contains magnesium, a smooth muscle relaxant, aiding circulation and reducing blood pressure.  Magnesium deficiency is most common in the western world.  Anyone who is stressed needs more magnesium rich foods because the adrenal glands will use up large amounts, leaving less for other organ systems such as hearts.  Stock up on broccoli or other vegetables rich in magnesium and high in chlorophyl such as other leafy greens, kelp, and beans.
