Enjoy Brussels sprouts now while they're at their peak of this season, are the least expensive, and have the best flavor.

Why should you add Brussels sprouts to your diet?

Brussels sprouts are members of the cruciferous family of vegetables and are closely related to cabbage as well as kale, collard greens and broccoli. Like their cousins, Brussels sprouts contain phytonutrients that help our body to promote the production of enzymes involved in detoxification. Detoxed body = flawless skin.

1 cup of Brussels Sprouts offers a whopping 243% of Vitamin K and 130% of Vitamin C (based on the daily recommended dose). Vitamin K is a fabulous ally in removing dark circles, red capillaries and helping to healing rosacea and inflamed skin. Vitamin C is our collagen builder.
