Sulforaphane

Sulforaphane is a compound commonly found in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, brussels sprouts, and cabbage. Numerous studies have demonstrated that sulforaphane provides strong health benefits. It is produced when the enzyme myrosinase transforms glucoraphanin, a glucosinolate, into sulforaphane upon damage to the plant, which allows the two compounds to mix and react.
