Extract of the highest quality standardized to contain a minimum of 0.4%
Sulforaphane is a sulfur compound belonging to isothiocyanates – an active extract from cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli and cabbage, supports natural cellular mechanisms related to protection against oxidative stress and helps maintain proper cellular health. It is a powerful antioxidant and shows properties that support the natural microbial barrier.
Sulforaphane also supports mitochondrial function, promotes glutathione (GSH) synthesis and has been studied for its effects on the nervous system. Researchers used the extract to monitor three brain areas for glutathione levels in healthy volunteers before and after taking sulforaphane. They found that after seven days, there was about a 30% increase in the average glutathione levels in the subjects’ brains.
FEATURES:
- high quality precisely standardized extract,
- strong antioxidant properties and support of cellular defense potential,
- studies observed an increase in glutathione levels,
- supports the body’s natural cleansing processes,
- supports balance in the area of inflammatory processes of the body,
- supports the maintenance of a normal bacterial environment of the gastrointestinal tract,
- supports the neutralization of oxidative stress,
- supports the protection of DNA from adverse effects of external factors,
- supports the balance of neurotransmitters.
Sulforaphane is primarily known as a natural compound that supports the protective mechanisms of cells. It owes this to its ability to optimize cellular processes, including those responsible for maintaining normal tissue structure and function in various parts of the body.
Sulforaphane can be helpful in people concerned about the balance of the microflora of the digestive system. It promotes the maintenance of a normal environment in the stomach, supports the integrity of the mucous membrane and helps alleviate local inflammatory processes.
The potential of sulforaphane in the area of emotional balance support and mood stabilization has been observed in laboratory conditions: studies suggest an effect on mechanisms related to the body’s response to stress, including those regulating the activity of the HPA axis, as well as promoting a quieting of the inflammatory response of the body subjected to environmental pressure. Sulforaphane also shows potential effects on processes related to serotonin metabolism – in in vitro experiments, an increase in nicotinic acetylcholine receptor protein expression was observed after exposure of Caco-2 cells to it.
