“For example, sulforaphane promotes the urinary excretion of benzene and acrolein, toxic compounds present in air pollution. But sulforaphane also demonstrates remarkable antibacterial activity: It reduces populations of Helicobacter pylori, or H.”

Episode
“While Dr. Rhonda Patrick’s first video focused primarily on the micronutrients found in the various fruits and vegetables she put in her smoothie, this one, in addition to offering some modest changes on the recipe, instead focuses on the beneficial “hormetic” compounds that are NOT micronutrients.”
“Sulforaphane switches on mechanisms that protect against cancer and other environmental insults. Sulforaphane is produced when the plants' cells are damaged by chewin or chopping and some culinary "hacks" favor its production.”
Clip
“Although human trials are lacking, some animal research suggests that sulforaphane and its byproducts protect against bladder cancer. In this clip, Dr. Jed Fahey discusses the effects of urinary excretion of sulforaphane byproducts.”
Clip
“Sulforaphane targets certain tissues, such as the prostate, breast, and bladder, where it exerts pharmacological effects that provide protection against cancer. In particular, sulforaphane promotes the activity of Nrf2, a transcription factor that regulates the expression of more than 200 cytoprotective enzymes.”
Clip
“A growing body of evidence suggests that sulforaphane's protective effects extend to the brain, where it appears to enhance brain-derived neurotrophic factor (a protein that controls and promotes the growth of new neurons) and inhibits histone deacetylation (an epigenetic modification that influences gene expression).”
“Advanced glycation end-products, or AGEs for short, are created when the sugars, amino acids, and fats in food encounter heat. AGEs also form in the body during normal glucose metabolism. However, if high levels of AGEs accumulate in the tissues and blood, they can become pathogenic.”
