Welcome to the Nutrition Facts Podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Michael Greger.

I'm thrilled that you've decided to join me today because the more I learn about the latest

0:11.6

in nutrition research, the more convinced I am that this information can make a real difference

0:16.8

in all our lives. And I like nothing better than sharing it with you.

0:22.4

Today we're talking about Splendiferous Cruise Zifrus. Say that 10 times fast.

0:29.4

Cruise Zifrus are those fabulous veggies that belong to that cabbage family. Broccoli,
