Broccoli, green, boiled in unsalted water

Green broccoli, also known as Calabrese, is a vegetable. The figures here describe broccoli boiled in unsalted water. It provides fibre, vitamin C and a small amount of protein. Per 100g, it contains 2.8g of fibre, 3.3g of protein, 44mg of vitamin C and 0.02g of salt.

Fibre supports normal bowel function. Vitamin C is needed for collagen formation, which helps maintain skin, blood vessels and other tissues, and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Broccoli boiled without added salt has a low salt content, although adding salt or sauces changes the amount in the finished dish. Full nutrient figures are shown in the tables below.
