Cooking breaks down tough fibers in broccoli, making it gentler on your stomach and easier to digest, especially for those with sensitive guts. Also, cooking them helps release certain antioxidants, like indole and carotenoids, making them easier for your body to absorb. As per experts, sulforaphane, a powerful anti-cancer compound, is more active when broccoli is lightly steamed.
