Sulforaphane is an organic compound found in certain vegetables, specifically the cruciferous and brassica vegetables.
These classes of vegetables include broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, Brussel sprouts and kale.
Numerous studies have demonstrated that sulforaphane provides strong health benefits.
These vegetables contain a compound called glucoraphanin, and when we chew or crush these vegetables, a chemical reaction is set off which creates a phytochemical compound known as sulforaphane.
