This write up never tells you what the compound is, but the paper clearly states it is sulforaphane.

Sulforaphane is available as a supplement.

We occasionally use a form called Jarrow Formulas BroccoMax, which tries to make it natively in your gut.

I use no supplements. The treadmill I use daily drastically reduces heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, bad balance, high blood pressure, knee & hip joint pain, PAD, ETC

C.M. Excellent information! Livestrong; foods-that-are-high-in-sulforaphane

Broccoli, Brussel Sprouts, Cabbage, Cauliflower, Kale, Watercress. Bok Choy and Turnips are also mentioned. (Rutabagas not on the list but would as well.)

"When food is chewed or prepared, the enzyme myrosinase turns glucoraphanin (a type of glucosinolate) found in cruciferous vegetables into sulforaphane, per Oregon State University Linus Pauling Institute."

Always good to be able to grow your own supply!

My sister-in-law is on warfarin and (IIRC) she can’t eat broccoli — or any of the green vegetables. I suppose there’s a connection here and when my coffee kicks in maybe I’ll figure it out.

Sulforaphane is also a precursor to glutathione, which is an antioxidant that helps fight off COVID-19.

NAC is better for glutathione deficiency because of it bioavailability, but sulforaphane is good to take.

I also have a supply of BroccoMax.

I can do broccoli...but thank goodness it wasn’t kale.

Is there a specific reason that one should take the supplement rather than just eating broccoli?
