Xinhua Chen Yu) A recent study led by Australia's Edith Cowan University found that older women who regularly eat crusaders such as cauliflower, cabbage and kale are less likely to accumulate large amounts of calcium in their aorta, which also means they have a lower risk of stroke and heart disease.
researchers report in the bi-monthly issue of the British Journal of Nutrition that they looked at data from a study of 684 older Western Australian women recruited in 1998. It was found that those who ate more than 45 grams of crusader vegetables per day were 46 percent less likely to accumulate large amounts of calcium in their aorta than those who did not or rarely ate them daily. The accumulation of calcium on the walls of aortic blood vessels is an important sign of structural vascular disease and one of the main causes of stroke and heart attack.
, of Edith Cowan University, who led the study, explained: "The vitamin K-rich vegetables in crossflower vegetables may be associated with inhibiting the calcification process that occurs in our blood vessels. He also said that in order to maintain overall health, people also need to eat a variety of vegetables every day, not just cross-flower vegetables.
