Here we go…👀
💪If you’re taking supplements for sulforaphane—the antioxidant compound known for its detoxification, inflammation, and cellular protection benefits—you’ll want to know how your product is sourced.
🥦Broccoli Seeds
• Rich in glucoraphanin, the sulforaphane precursor
• Stable when extracted properly
• Can be standardized for consistent dosing
→ Often the best choice for supplement form when paired with myrosinase or designed for gut activation.
🧊 Freeze-Dried Sprouts
Marketed as a “whole food” option—but here’s the catch:
– Myrosinase often degrades in freeze-drying
– Glucoraphanin content can vary wildly
– Shelf stability is uncertain
– No standardization = unpredictable sulforaphane yield
➡️ The Bottom Line:
If you want reliable, bioavailable sulforaphane from your supplement:
✅ Choose products with standardized glucoraphanin
✅ Bonus if they include active myrosinase or proven gut-conversion support
✅ Skip the freeze-dried hype unless there’s real data
🎉Your broccoli supplement should come with science.
Not just sprouts and good intentions.
