Abstract

Abstract. Broccoli (Brassica oleracea var. Italica plenck) is an annual vegetable plant belonging to the cabbage family. Like many other medicinal plants, broccoli is a good source of various phytochemicals. This variety of cabbage is considered a natural anti-cancer anti-carcinogenic vegetable and it is known in folk and traditional medicine due to the presence of high concentrations of indole-3-carbinol (I3C), which is used to treat breast cancer and a number of other diseases.
