Active Sulforaphane powder Independently lab tested 100% natural and non-GMO Gluten-free, vegan and allergy friendly Free 0.5g scoop with every order Free UK delivery on all orders   Fresh broccoli and broccoli sprouts are two of the healthiest foods available due to their high concentrations of a category of compounds called glucosinolates. The two most beneficial compounds are glucoraphanin and sulforaphane which have become the focus of longevity scientists in recent years with over 650 studies establishing the health benefits. Sulforaphane is an active compound found in many cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, and kale. It has been linked to health benefits, such as improved heart health and digestion. Sulforaphane has been found to possess numerous potential health-related benefits including: Protection of cells, tissues and DNA from free radical oxidative damage Maintaining healthy and normal cholesterol levels Supporting gut health and a healthy gut microbial balance Promotion of cell health  Assists in detoxification processes Supports healthy joint cartilage  Supports bladder and prostate health   Whilst Sulforaphane is a highly beneficial compound in small doses, the amount of it in food is miniscule, for example, you would need to eat about more than a kilogram of broccoli to get significant amounts of sulforaphane. Sulforaphane is also a fragile compound which means that typical cooking and preparation can destroy a majority of the beneficial nutrients. The challenge of accessing the beneficial compounds is further complicated due to Sulforaphane being found in its inactive form within food. This inactive form - glucoraphanin  - is activated into Sulforaphane only when it comes into contact with Myrosinase. These critical Myrosinase enzymes are only released when a plant is damaged, cut, chopped, or chewed, to release myrosinase and convert inactive Myrosinase into activated Sulforaphane. Recent studies show that adding myrosinase derived from ground raw mustard seeds to cooked crucifers increases the bioavailability of sulforaphane by up to 4 times. This activation of glucoraphanin into sulforaphane is the focus for our Active Sulforaphane powder which is a proprietary blend of Sulforaphane, Myrosinase and black pepper.
