Broccoli sprout extract (BroccoMax / Avmacol)
What it is
Concentrated young-broccoli-sprout powder formulated to deliver glucoraphanin together with active myrosinase enzyme, so sulforaphane is generated on ingestion. Trial-validated branded forms (Avmacol, BroccoMax) have RCT data for air-pollution detox biomarkers, mild liver enzyme improvement, and bladder cancer-related endpoints. Dose for dose, branded enzyme-active forms outperform generic glucoraphanin-only powders.
Dose
1–2 capsules of standardised enzyme-active product daily, supplying ~30 mg glucoraphanin
Time of day & tips
Take on empty stomach with water; avoid hot beverages within 30 minutes (heat denatures myrosinase); consistent daily use matters more than single high doses.
