𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐦𝐚𝐬 🎄𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐨𝐝

𝐁𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐬 𝐬𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐬 🧬 Christmas 🎄dinner is fast approaching, and we’ll all be faced with that ominous decision. To eat, or not to eat those dreaded Brussels sprouts? Well, today we’re going to give you food for thought with regards to whether you push them to the side of your plate this year. Besides containing more Vitamin C than an orange 🍊, there’s one other major reason to get stuck in to your Sprouts over Christmas. 🎄 Sulforaphane!! Not a word that you’ve probably heard before, but one which offers a whole variety of health benefits, which to be honest cannot be ignored. Sulforaphane is found in certain cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli, 🥦 cabbage, cauliflower, and yes Brussels sprouts to name but a few. Studies 📚have already shown that sulforaphane exhibits antioxidant and anti-inflammatory 🔥properties and may be beneficial against various diseases, such as autism, cancer, metabolic dysfunction, and may even help to reduce some of the harmful effects associated with exposure to air pollution. Sulforaphane is produced when you chew or cut your cruciferous vegetables and two enzymes (Myrosinase and Glucoraphanin) mix and react. You can also find various sulforaphane supplements💊, but you really need to be careful as the supplement market is a bit like to Wild West 🤠with either the manufactures not understanding how to design and formulate a supplement correctly, and/or cutting costs and putting an inferior product out to market to make a higher 💰profit margin. Many products on Amazon or in Holland and Barrett etc will claim to contain sulforaphane when in fact they do not. If your products say broccoli 🥦 seed extract or sulforaphane glucosinolate (sgs) it does not have any myrosinase and therefore will not liberate the sulforaphane, and in many ways you will be wasting your money.💰 We (Muhdo Health) have found that a dosage 20-40 mg of sulforaphane per day. · Contributes to balancing phase I and phase II detoxification. · Activates master gene regulator Nrf2. · Influences various pro-inflammatory genes such as NFkB, TNFa & COX-2. · Upregulates antioxidant capabilities through GSTP1 (Glutathione S- transferase P1) with the protection of DNA 🧬 from oxidative stress. In some instances, 3-day old sprouts may contain 10-100 times the amount of glucoraphanin, so Boxing Day 🎁 lefts overs are definitely the route to go as well.
