Brussel Sprouts contain a number of wonderful health benefits. According to the World&#8217;s Healthiest Foods, brussel sprouts can do the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Brussels sprouts can provide you with some special cholesterol-lowering benefits if you use a steaming method when cooking them. The fiber-related components in Brussels sprouts do a better job of binding together with bile acids in your digestive tract when they&#8217;ve been steamed. When this binding process takes place, it&#8217;s easier for bile acids to be excreted, and the result is a lowering of your cholesterol levels. Raw Brussels sprouts still have cholesterol-lowering ability \u2014 just not as much as steamed Brussels sprouts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Brussels sprouts may have unique health benefits in the area of DNA protection. A recent study has shown improved stability of DNA inside of our white blood cells after daily consumption of Brussels sprouts in the amount of 1.25 cups.<\/li>\n<li>The cancer protection we get from Brussels sprouts is largely related to four specific glucosinolates found in this cruciferous vegetable: glucoraphanin, glucobrassicin, sinigrin, and gluconasturtiian. Research has shown that Brussels sprouts offer these cancer-preventive components in special combination.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Maple syrup also packs a nutritional punch. It can boost your immune system, age-proof your skin, calm tummy troubles, and more.<\/p>\n<p>Pair this recipe as a side dish with other DASH Diet recipes featured here on Aspire-Canada such as the <a title=\"DASH DIET RECIPE: SHRIMP IN SHALLOT RUM CREAM\" href=\"https:\/\/aspire-canada.com\/dash-diet-recipe-shrimp-shallot-rum-cream\/\">Shrimp in Shallot Rum Cream<\/a>, the\u00a0<a title=\"Shrimp Scampi with Rum\" href=\"https:\/\/aspire-canada.com\/shrimp-scampi-rum\/\">Shrimp Scampi with Rum<\/a>\u00a0or the <a title=\"Jerk Spiced Shrimp Recipe\" href=\"https:\/\/aspire-canada.com\/jerk-spiced-shrimp-recipe\/\">Jerk Spiced Shrimp recipe<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recipe Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2 Cups Brussels sprouts<\/p>\n<p>1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil<\/p>\n<p>2 Teaspoons maple syrup<\/p>\n<p>Salt and pepper, to taste<\/p>\n<p><strong>Directions:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1.
