What is sulforaphane?

Sulforaphane is the compound in broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables that is responsible for their many health benefits. There's been an explosion of research about sulforaphane in the past ten years. For more, check out The science of BROQ.

Can I get my sulforaphane from broccoli?

The short answer is: yes, but not nearly the level of sulforaphane that's in BROQ. You'd have to eat approximately three pounds of raw broccoli a day to get the equivalent of one daily serving of BROQ. (Cooking greatly reduces the amount of sulforaphane.) And, even then, you won't know how much you're getting, as there's a lot of variability due to freshness and growing conditions.

How about broccoli sprouts?

If you're prepared to do the work, yes, you can get as much sulforaphane as in a daily serving of BROQ. But you'd need to grow and eat about this much raw broccoli sprouts each day:

Why is NRF2 so important?

Sulforaphane is the most potent naturally occurring molecule that activates the NRF2 genetic pathway, which regulates over 200 genes. ​ Many of these genes are associated with keeping us healthy—by fighting oxidative stress and inflammation—and by inactivating harmful compounds we are exposed to on a daily basis. ​ Learn more about NRF2 These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

Will I feel the effects of taking BROQ?

Probably not. And, if you do, it will be a gradual, slow change. This is true of any supplement or vitamin that affects your overall health. Any change that takes place happens too gradually to be noticed. You might want to ask your doctor whether there are any tests that could be performed before you start taking BROQ—and then again, say, six months after taking it daily. (Give them a link to our site!) If you do that, we'd love to hear what you find!! These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

Can BROQ slow or reverse aging?

We wouldn't state it in such bold terms. The Fountain of Youth has not yet been discovered. However, the high level of sulforaphane in BROQ does affect factors closely tied to aging: (1) Oxidative stress is strongly associated with aging. ( Source) Sulforaphane is the most potent natural molecule that actives NRF2, which reduces oxidative stress. ( Source) (2) Inflammation is the single most important driver of human aging. Virtually all people who live to be 100 have very low inflammation.​ Sulforaphane has been shown, in multiple studies, to significantly reduce markers of inflammation, such as C-reactive protein and IL-6. (See sources here.) (3) Autophagy is the body’s way of cleaning out damaged cells to make way for new ones.​ “Auto” means self and “phagy” means eat; so, literally, the word describes cells eating themselves. ​Autophagy is the primary source of the many health benefits of fasting.​ Sulforaphane has been shown to promote autophagy (without fasting).
