to show you some interesting vegetables
I'll tell you something interesting
about this check this one out okay this

called something called Radicchio
tardivo these are kind of um a kind of
chicory with these bent octopus like
bronze look at that

actually entertained uh the bioactive
person quercetin actually helps improve
your metabolism by stimulating the uh
thermogenesis which is your brown fat

excess fuel in your body and actually
decreases the formation of harmful body
fat inside I read about this in my new
book Eat to beat your diet everybody was

Amazon right now I'm super excited about
it but I just want to show you I
actually take people on a tour through
the grocery store this is ridiculous all
right so check it out you see it
try it
um how do you do it actually here's what
I do um I'll tell you you cut this
bottom part off right here and then uh
but don't cut don't don't separate the
leaves cut the bottom off and then you
can slice this baby right in half with a
little bit of olive oil on the cut side
a little bit of black pepper fresh black
pepper a little salt and then just roast
in the oven like at 350 for maybe 10
minutes you'll get this nice
caramelization it's a great fresh way I
might actually do that myself for dinner
tonight here's another one a little more
common yes
is baby bok choy baby bok choy actually
it's actually not really a baby a big
bok choy is about to pick one out of the
farm and it's about 70 days old baby
back to about 30. so this is kind of
more of a Teenage bok choy
um similar want to cook with it um you
just chop off that bottom right down
here
okay
um here you can peel the leaves apart I
cut them uh saute with a little bit of
garlic olive oil I could add a little
soy sauce if you want oyster sauce makes
it really really tasty uh delicious dish
vegetable dish

know is that this contains sulforaphane

your metabolism by fighting harmful body
fat and what also sulforaphanes let's
