DESCRIPTION: Eating broccoli appears to make DNA more resistant to damage. Have a question about this video? Leave it in the comment section at http://nutritionfacts.org/videos/dna-protection-from-broccoli/ and I'll try to answer it! This discovery may help explain the findings I presented in Repairing DNA Damage (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/repairing-dna-damage/). What about giving smokers kale? See yesterday's video Smoking Versus Kale Juice (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/smoking-versus-kale-juice/). There are 19 other videos about DNA damage (http://nutritionfacts.org/topics/dna-damage/) and hundreds of other videos on more than a thousand subjects (http://nutritionfacts.org/topics/). And note that the sources for this video are all open access, so you can click on them above in the Sources Cited section and read them full-text for free.
