"Broccoli's noteworthy nutrients include vitamin C, vitamin A (mostly as beta-carotene), folic acid, calcium, and fiber. While the calcium content of one serving doesn't equal that of a glass of milk, broccoli is an important calcium source for those who don't consume dairy products. Calcium does more than build strong bones. Research shows that this mineral may play a role in the control of high blood pressure, and it may work to prevent colon cancer. 

Beta-carotene and vitamin C are important antioxidants that have been linked to a reduced risk of numerous conditions, including cataracts,heart disease, and several cancers." (HowStuffWorks)

For today's lunch, I had a Broccoli Nuggets with tuna and cheese.

    A chubby architect who aims to be fit and healthy through a shift into a healthy lifestyle. Eating the right foods coupled with good exercise and workouts. I started this lifestyle last December 2012 when I started to become uncomfortable with my body and my workout regimen seems to be not effective. I just woke up one day and decided to make a 360 degree turn in my lifestyle. And after months of deciding to become fit, I already lost almost 15 kilos and aim to lose more.

    I will share some of my food experiments as well as some exercise that might be an inspiration for people out there who aim to become healthy and fit and I hope you will enjoy and get some inspiration from my posts. Have a good day!
