First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at how much of the healthy compound sulforaphane gets into the body from three different broccoli extract supplements. Researchers will test 12 healthy adults aged 18-60. Participants take each supplement once, then give blood and urine samples for 24 hours. The goal is to see which version delivers the most sulforaphane, a substance linked to health benefits like cancer prevention.
