🛍 Product Information :
Broccoli also contains a compound called glucoraphanin, which can be processed into an anti-cancer compound called sulforaphane. The precursor of sulforaphane is glucosinolate, which is converted into sulforaphane through myrosinase. However, myrosinase is heat unstable, and high-temperature cooking will destroy the activity, thereby greatly reducing the production of sulforaphane. Another study pointed out that broccoli sprouts contain isothiocyanates, which can effectively inhibit the growth of Helicobacter pylori, thereby indirectly inhibiting the occurrence or development of gastritis, gastric ulcers and even gastric cancer.
