Love Your Greens is proud to be supporting the Semillons.
Love your Greens is a newly launched campaign funded by the Brassica Growers Association to raise awareness of vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, cabbage and swede – all members of the brassica family – and their health benefits. Broccoli, in particular, is thought to help reduce the risk of prostate cancer.
Prof Colin Cooper, Head of the Everyman Centre at The Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) says: “Our understanding of how diet might affect cancer risk is rapidly growing and there are now several lines of evidence suggesting eating brassica vegetables, in particular broccoli, could reduce prostate cancer risk. Further research is needed to confirm the studies, in the meantime eating a healthy balanced diet, which includes brassicas, will have benefits to health.”
Look out for delicious (and healthy) broccoli canapés on the night!
