BroccoSprouts are grown from specially developed broccoli seeds that contain the long-lasting antioxidant, sulforaphane glucosinolate (SGS).

A Johns Hopkins School of Medicine research team identified SGS as the phytochemical responsible for many of broccoli’s healthful properties. Laboratory and clinical studies around the world continue to uncover the power of SGS, including its long-lasting ability to stimulate the body’s won natural detoxification system.

SGS boosts the body’s ability to protect itself from free radicals before they can damage cells. As an indirect antioxidant, SGS provides proven protection for 72 hours, significantly longer than the effect of direct antioxidants such as vitamin C, E and beta carotene, which last only a few hours.
