Using technology developed by our R&D and innovation team, we extract the compounds that give broccoli its health-giving effects (sulforaphane and glucosinolate), incorporating them into our own products.
Sulforaphane is produced via the action of thioglucoside glucohydrolase called myrosinase, an enzyme present in broccoli, separately from its glucosinolate precursors. This enzyme acts as a catalyst for the transformation for the glucosinolates into a series of hydrolysis products, including indoles and isocyanates, one of which is sulforaphane.
By this means, our products incorporate the immunostimulatory properties of broccoli, which have been extensively proven in laboratory and animal testing, as well as in numerous clinical trials. These studies also show that sulforaphane has antimicrobial activity and acts to prevent certain chronic diseases, including:
• Cancer
• Cardiovascular disease
• Chronic pulmonary disease
• Diabetes
• Neurodegenerative disorders
A natural phytochemical with widely recognised immunostimulatory properties, designed to produce sulforaphane. This formulation is patented in Europe (EP3123874A1) and is pending patent approval in Mexico, Canada, the USA and other regions. Sulforaphan-Smart is based on a combination of glucosinolates and enzyme myrosinase, protected by means of a bilayer encapsulation system to guarantee that the active component is produced in the target area of our body.
