Most people know broccoli is healthy—but what gives it that superfood status? The answer is glucoraphanin, a powerful phytonutrient found in cruciferous vegetables. Once consumed, it’s converted into sulforaphane, which activates the body’s natural detox system and antioxidant defence.
The Problem with Regular Broccoli
• You’d need to eat about 200g daily to reap the benefits.
• The highest level of glucoraphanin is actually found in broccoli seeds, not the florets.
An Alternative to Eating Broccoli Every Day
Patented broccoli seed extract standardized to glucoraphanin, making it easier to harness the antioxidant-boosting power of broccoli without eating large amounts daily.
How It Works
Once converted to sulforaphane in the gut, it boosts Phase II Enzymes, enhancing the body’s own removal of free radicals and overall detoxification of cells.
Why It Outperforms Other Antioxidants
Glucoraphanin helps trigger antioxidant action lasting up to 72 hours, far longer than most antioxidants like vitamins or polyphenols, which typically last only a few hours.
