Men with the highest sugar intake (>than 67g a day) had a 23% increased chance of suffering depression after five years.
“Other studies have shown that men that drank a refined sugar beverage for 3 weeks had a 100% increase in biomarkers for inflammation. Inflammation has been shown to play a causal role in depression. Check out my short animated video that explains how inflammation has been shown to play a causal role in depression.”

Sulforaphane, which is high in broccoli sprouts, clears away brain amyloid plaques and tau tangles and ameliorated memory defects in mice.
“The precursor to sulforaphane is found in cruciferous vegetables but is highest in broccoli sprouts which can contain up to 100 times more than mature broccoli. To learn more about the role sulforaphane plays in human health, check out my comprehensive video and the podcast I did with sulforaphane expert Dr. Jed Fahey.”

A small trial finds that when people eat cooked broccoli with 1 gram of powdered mustard seed the bioavailability of sulforaphane increased 4x.
“I usually try to sprinkle mustard seed on my cooked broccoli and other cooked cruciferous vegetables like sauteed kale. Check out our very comprehensive video on sulforaphane and our interview with Dr. Jed Fahey for more information on the benefits of sulforaphane.”

Sulforaphane (found in broccoli sprouts) causes 20% fat loss by changing gut bacteria & increasing mitochondria in fat in mice.
“It will be interesting to see future studies looking at these two new functions of sulforaphane in humans. For more information check out my video on sulforaphane or my podcast with Dr. Jed Fahey, who discovered broccoli sprouts are the best source of sulforaphane.”

Are we more likely to be friends with people who see the world in a similar way?
“A new study demonstrated that mental responses to the environment (in this case, neural processes evoked during viewing of videos) are very similar among friends and can predict who an individual will be friends with.”
