Product insights

  • Thorne's Broccoli Seed Extract contains sulforaphane glucosinolate (SGS), a precursor to sulforaphane, derived from broccoli and kale seed extracts, known for its antioxidant properties.
  • The inclusion of myrosinase from mustard seed enhances the conversion of SGS to sulforaphane, optimizing bioavailability and ensuring maximal benefit from each capsule.
  • Sulforaphane supports the body's natural detoxification processes by promoting the activity of phase II detoxification enzymes in the liver.
  • Vitamin C is added to further activate myrosinase, ensuring optimal conversion of SGS to sulforaphane.

The research

2 cited studies
1.
Sulforaphane and Detoxification

Research indicates that sulforaphane induces phase II detoxification enzymes, which play a crucial role in neutralizing and eliminating toxins from the body.

2.
Sulforaphane and Antioxidant Activity

Studies suggest that sulforaphane activates the Nrf2 pathway, leading to increased production of endogenous antioxidants like glutathione, protecting cells from oxidative stress.
