- dfsegoat 7y agoYep. Get the Broccoli Sprout Extract in capsules from a vitamin provider you trust: It has the max percentage of the desirable compounds. Anecdotally, if you open the bottle and it smells like slightly rotten eggs, you know it's good (this is a sulfur compound after all).
- clumsysmurf 7y ago> a vitamin provider you trust I don't many of them these days. Heard through the grapevine, one manufacturer was turning away more and more source material since it was contaminated. Not all manufacturers test on a consistent bases. It seemed that most of the things like vitamins, amino acids were OK, but the plant-based things were nosediving in purity.
- adamc 7y agoWouldn't just eating them work better?
- dfsegoat 7y agoI would prefer this (pretty easy to grow I guess?). The advantage of the extract is that it is concentrated, so 1 gelcap is equivalent to $X grams of raw material I would wager. Theoretically bioavailability may be a bit better too with the extract.
