In fact, broccoli is one of the most valuable vegetable for diets of
vegans and vegetarians. In addition to its high content of fiber and
vitamins, it has a very high iron, calcium, phosphorus and potassium.
Its usefulness is known already for 3000 years when the Greeks and
the Romans, later, they began to notice the main curative effects of
this vegetable and its alcohol inhibitor function; so consumed before
a meal, or in the case of philosophers, of a symposium.
Its antioxidant properties are known to all dieticians, nutritionists
and homeopaths of the medical community. Even in the field of
endocrinology broccoli it has an important function as much as in
that gastroenterology.
Back to the trees we usually see them only as big plants useful in
summer to get cover from sunny days, but there’s more subjects
that could be relied to it.
The tree in fact represents not only history, science and philosophy,
but also symbolism. Christmas seems to me the perfect example of
how nature and mankind can join together for a day. For the ti-
niest, fir in December indicates that the happiest day or 25 arrived.
Treat trees is a popular anti-stress that allows thousands of people
to avoid certain states of anxiety and worry otherwise treatable
with neurological medicines.
It’s also a place where people get socialized and animals too. We
see this in big cities where parks represent perfectly this function.
So finally we have to give importance to a plant so close to us that
often we evaluate only as material for our furniture and houses.
We recall that the tree has a little soul according to pantheists.
