BROQ - The Gold Standard of Sulforaphane Supplements - More Than 2X Any Other Product - See Independent Lab Tests - The World’s Only High Potency Natural Stabilized Sulforaphane - Same as Prostaphane

Product Information

Broq uses chemical solvents to extract sulforaphane from broccoli seed. While they do have more sulforaphane in the capsule than broccoli, 10 milligrams versus 5 [milligrams], their product does not contain any of the other beneficial isothiocyanates like erucin. All of the Johns Hopkins research on sulforaphane uses broccoli sprout beverages made, tested, and ingested on the same day. In those beverages, there are numerous isothiocyanates and not just sulforaphane. Studies have shown that erucin and another isothiocyanate called (eberron? 24:36) comprise up to 25 percent of the glucosinolate content of broccoli, with sulforaphane comprising the other 75 percent. Researchers recently discovered that erucin and sulforaphane are interconvertible, which suggests that the clinical effects observed in studies using broccoli spout beverages are likely to be due to the combined effects of all isothiocyanates, not just sulforaphane. Broccoli uses a natural water extraction process, which extracts all of the isothiocyanates from the broccoli seed. This makes taking broccoli the closest you can get to the effects of consuming the broccoli sprout beverages that have been used in the vast majority of sulforaphane studies. But in fact, I think taking broccoli is significantly better than consuming broccoli sprouts. If you don’t want to supplement, young broccoli sprouts are the most bioavailable source of sulforaphane. Potential effects of sulforaphane to fight obesity” published in The Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture To optimize your intake of sulforaphane, eat vegetables raw or cooked at temperatures below 284˚F (140˚C) ( 4). Number two is how sulforaphane improves detox capacity. Sulforaphane is one of the few natural compounds that works in all three phases of detoxification, which is a process that happens in every cell of the body. But while it works in all three phases, it’s the most potent phase two detoxifier of any currently known natural compound. This is critical because for safe and efficient detoxification, a toxin should move through a relatively slow phase one reaction, followed by a more rapid phase two reaction. During phase one, toxins are oxidized, reduced, or hydrolyzed into new metabolites and can be more effectively removed by the body. During phase two, these metabolites are conjugated into less toxic compounds. One of the biggest mistakes that can be made in a detox program is upregulating phase one without also upregulating phase two. This can lead to a buildup of toxic metabolites from the phase one reaction, which can make the situation worse rather than better. Unfortunately, this isn’t uncommon because many of the compounds that people typically consume for detox, like glutathione, folate, and niacin, stimulate phase one reactions but don’t increase phase two reactions. And this is why sulforaphane is so helpful for detoxification. It balances the effects of other compounds that are typically used for detox by increasing phase two reactions and preventing the buildup of toxins and their metabolites.

There is no standard dose for sulforaphane. However, suggested dosages range from 5 to 60 mg, depending on the supplement. This product is safe for vegans, vegetarians, and people on a gluten-free diet. 8) Life Extension Optimized Broccoli and Cruciferous Blend ( Best Sulforaphane for Detoxification) BROQ contains 10mg of sulforpahane per capsule (the same as Prostaphane) and Rhonda currently takes 2 capsules per day (with a meal, never on an empty stomach). A benefit of using supplements over home grown sprouts is for situations where risk of infection must be minimized – including pregnant mothers and those with compromised immune systems. Home grown sprouts run the risk of bacterial contamination, if they’re not kept completely sterile, whereas sprouts processed into supplements do not carry this risk. Sulforaphane may also prevent cancer cell growth by releasing antioxidant and detoxification enzymes that protect against carcinogens — substances that cause cancer ( 8, 9, 10).Sulforaphane has been shown to have anticancer properties in a number of test-tube and animal studies, reducing both the size and number of various types of cancer cells ( 5, 6, 7).

May protect against brain damage. According to animal studies, sulforaphane may have the potential to improve recovery and reduce mental decline after a brain injury ( 24, 25, 26).In that last episode, we talked about why glyphosate-based herbicides like Roundup are one of the most dangerous toxins that we’re exposed to, and what the most recent scientific research tells us about glyphosate’s effects on human health. I reviewed the overwhelming evidence suggesting that glyphosate is associated with increased risk of cancer, particularly non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, and many other effects, including gut dysbiosis, which in turn drives many chronic diseases, hormone imbalance, impaired fertility, reduced detox capacity, nutrient deficiency, and oxidative stress to name a few. I shared some steps you can take to reduce exposure to glyphosate-based herbicides, like eating organic food as much as possible. Sulforaphane is a sulfur-rich compound found in cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, bok choy, and cabbage. It has been shown to provide powerful health benefits. But it did help me quite a lot. I'm more calm, collected, less annoyed by stimuli, and sleep better. I hope it helps some of you guys like it did for me.
