Official title
Bioavailability of Sulforaphane From a Glucoraphanin-Rich Broccoli Seed Supplement With or Without Added Myrosinase From Mustard Seed Powder
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
We know that broccoli is a vegetable that is associated with a number of health benefits and is a good choice in a healthy diet. Researchers at major universities, including Johns Hopkins University, have identified nutrients in broccoli that have specific health benefits such as improving antioxidant protection. One of these nutrients is called glucoraphanin (GR). However, in order for GR to deliver health benefits in the human body, it first has to be converted to its active form, sulforaphane (SF). This conversion can happen one of two ways. GR can be converted to SF by our gut bacteria (the microbiota) or it can be converted to SF by an enzyme called myrosinase that is naturally occurring in certain plants, including mustard (the same mustard that is used to make table mustard spread and mayonnaise). The purpose of the present study is to test in healthy human volunteers the oral bioavailability (absorption) of GR in broccoli seed extract (BSE) with or without the presence of active plant myrosinase in mustard seed powder (MSP) delivered in a nutritional supplement.
