These two cruciferous veggies both have some amazing health benefits - but which should you get onto your plate on a regular basis if you're worried about obesity or diabetes?

1) The American Diabetes Association recommends eating 3 to 5 servings of non-starchy vegetables daily. Both broccoli and cauliflower can fit into this category.

2) Both broccoli and cauliflower are considered to be cruciferous vegetables - low calorie, nutrient-dense veggies that are descended from the mustard plant brassica oleracea.

3) Both contain more protein than most other vegetables, and both are low in calories, though cauliflower has a slightly smaller calorie count.

4) Broccoli has a good amount of vitamin A, while cauliflower contains no vitamin A.

5) 1 cup of broccoli can contain the full amount of daily recommended vitamin C. Cauliflower contains about half the amount of vitamin C as compared to broccoli. Broccoli also contains more vitamin K than cauliflower.

6) Broccoli also contains more fiber than cauliflower, though both contain a good amount in general.

7) Both broccoli and cauliflower contain beneficial omega-3 fats, but cauliflower contains more than broccoli.

8) Broccoli contains sulforaphane, a beneficial, anti-inflammatory compound which can improve gut health.
