Brussels sprouts are known to have health benefits

In Chinese medicine, they are prescribed to help with digestion. There have been many U.S. studies done on the relationship between this vegetable and cancer prevention. Brussels sprouts are able to provide special nutrient support for the body s detox system, antioxidant system, and inflammatory/anti inflammatory system, all of which are important for fighting cancer. Ironically, the benefits come from those same stinky glucosinolates that may have turned you off sprouts.
