Horseradish contains the compound Sinigrin, a glucosinolate responsible for the root's pungent smell. (Sinigrin is also present in mustard and Brussels sprouts.) According to science, the presence of Sinigrin may afford horseradish a whole host of health-positive properties. Among them: Slowing the spread of certain cancers, reducing inflammation in the body, protecting the body against E. coli bacteria, delivering free-radical fighting antioxidants, and acting as an anti-fungal agent.
