Cauliflower contains Vitamin C which helps our body's collagen production, and Vitamin K that may help prevent bone loss. It also contains Indole-3-carbinol, a phytonutrient that has anti-inflammatory properties and aids the liver in its detox functions. Cauliflower also boosts the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels in our body, and helps lower blood pressure. At only 25 calories per cup, it is considered as a low-carb alternative to grains; ideal for weight loss.
