Try This Delicious Cauliflower, Coconut oil, Ginger, Turmeric Stew! The Best Family Meal And Is Also Very Healthy!

You’ll want to include cauliflower as one of the cruciferous vegetables you eat on a regular basis if you want to receive the fantastic health benefits provided by the cruciferous vegetable family. At a minimum, we recommend 3/4 cup of cruciferous vegetables on a daily basis. This amount is equivalent to approximately 5 cups per week. A more optimal intake amount would be 1-1/2 cups per day, or about 10 cups per week.

Coconut oil has a multitude of health benefits, which include but are not limited to skincare, hair care, improving digestion and immunity against a host of infections and diseases.

 Ginger (Zingiberofficinale) is surprisingly the most widely used dietary condiment in the world today. It’s actually part of the plant family that includes turmeric and cardamom, which may explain why the health benefits of ginger are so extraordinary.

These compounds are called curcuminoids, the most important of which is curcumin.

Curcumin is the main active ingredient in turmeric. It has powerful anti-inflammatory effects and is a very strong antioxidant. However, the curcumin content of turmeric is not that high , it’s around 3%, by weight .
