Summary

This study planned to test whether sulforaphane, a compound found in broccoli, could improve social communication in people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Researchers aimed to enroll 50 people with ASD and 30 healthy volunteers, giving the ASD group sulforaphane capsules daily for 8 weeks. However, the study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no results are available.
