Brussels Sprouts
No wonder your mother always forced you to eat brussels sprouts—they’re excellent for your cells. “They contain substantial amounts of a compound called brassinin, which helps support healthy cell growth. They also contain diindolylmethane (DIM), which supports healthy hormonal balance in both men and women by promoting the excretion of xenoestrogens, which are bad estrogens we encounter through toxins and pollution,” says medical expert Dr. Isaac Eliaz.
