> > eat broccoli, enjoy life > Those two are mutually exclusive for me! :o) I'm not a great Broccoli fan. But it is thought that it is one of the most useful vegetables available due to various arcane components. I eat a little in Chinese food occasionally and find with time that it becomes almost bearable :-) While on the topic - beware the processed vitamins route. Some of these have their place no doubt BUT it appears that at least some which are unquestionably effective when taken in their natural form, actually produce adverse results when extracted and taken as a "supplement". One such is Beta Carotene. So I'm afraid it's going to have to be carrots with your Broccoli :-) !!! Tomato cooked or raw has gotta be good for you fwiw. Brighter the colour, better the result as a VERY rough rule of thumb. Green tea can't hurt (I hope :-) ). Ginkgo Biloba I'm not yet convinced about :-( R "by no means a health food freak" M -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.
