Broccoli Sprout Extract: A New Perspective on Nutrition And Health

Broccoli Sprout extract

Broccoli sprouts are young broccoli plants (Brassica oleracea). Broccoli sprouts are rich in the chemical glucoraphanin, which might offer health benefits.

The glucoraphanin in broccoli sprout is changed to another compound called sulforaphane during digestion. This chemical has antioxidant effects which might help prevent cancer and liver problems.

People use broccoli sprout for prostate cancer, hay fever, asthma, sunburn, and many other conditions.

Broccoli sprouts contain 10–100 times higher levels of sulforaphane than mature plants, something that has been well known since 1997. Sulforaphane has a whole range of unique biological properties, and it is especially an inducer of phase 2 detoxication enzymes.

Benefits of sulforaphane

It neutralizes toxins. Phytochemicals like sulforaphane are antioxidants that cancel out free radicals. Free radical are tiny particles that weaken and damage healthy cells. They form in your body because of pollution, UV rays, food additives and preservatives, and even through natural processes like digestion.

It reduces inflammation. Because sulforaphane neutralizes toxins, it also calms inflammation in your body. Inflammation has been linked to several kinds of cancer.

It may protect your DNA. Some studies have shown that sulforaphane blocks mutations in DNA that lead to cancer.

It may slow tumor growth. Sulforaphane has been shown to reduce the ability of cancerous cells to multiply. That means it may slow tumor growth or reduce its ability to spread to other parts of your body.

It is readily available. You don’t have to do anything complicated to access the sulforaphane in cruciferous vegetables. All you have to do is steam the veggies or eat them raw. Roasting them also retains most of the nutrients.

Sulforaphane can be obtained from vegetables. You can also choose to take health care products made from sulforaphane powder extracted from broccoli, which will have better effects.
