Sulforaphane: What is the deal with this and why are we promoting it?!
1. Results from a 2009 study showed that sulforaphane is capable of switching genes on and off for the purpose of stopping tumor cells from replicating and spreading.
2 Sulforaphane may also cause cancer cells to self-destruct, a process known as apoptosis.

Sulforaphane is a naturally occurring compound in cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cabbage, and kale. It’s activated only when vegetables are chopped or chewed. The highest levels of sulforaphane are found in raw vegetables.

Broccoli micro greens have 25 times the amount of Sulforaphane as full grown broccoli.

It has also been linked to improved heart health and digestion.
