Health importance of cauliflower

I never knew about the cauliflower till I met a nine year old in a grocery store who told me about the cauliflower,she said most people consume it in place of rice for preventing obesity ,I felt so amazed and curious so i had to do a little research myself.

Cauliflower is a cruciferous vegetable which contains certain vitamins (vitamin-k,B compex vitamins and vitamin E)and some minerals like zinc,magnessium,phosphorus potassium and iron etc

Due to its constituents,cauliflower has some significant importance in the body like preventing cancer,improving cardiovascular health,preventing stroke,helps in accelerating weight loss,controls diabetes,boosts the body's immunity,preventing stroke and brain disorders etc

Like most vegetables"Cauliflower can cause side effects like allergies,kidney stones and excess gas"(https://www.organicfacts.net › ).These side effects are due to excessive intake of it and this should be avoided
