Dogs can eat broccoli whether raw or cooked as long as the broccoli has no oils or seasonings added.

While dogs can eat broccoli the broccoli should only be fed to dogs in small amounts as the florets of broccoli contain isothiocyanates which can lead to gastric irritation in dogs.

People who should avoid eating broccoli are people who have IBS or irritable bowel syndrome or other digestive health issues.

Broccoli can cause gas and bloating and affect a persons IBS negatively.

The vegetables you can eat unlimited amounts of include zucchini, salad greens, lettuce, carrots, cauliflower and cucumbers.

Foods you should not eat everyday include Junk Food, Salt, Cruciferous vegetables, grape fruit, baked goods, Kombucha, dried fruit, Animal based protein, meats and canned tuna.

The number 1 healthiest food is broccoli as well as Kale and Spinach.
