Sulphoraphane

Super-chemical found in broccoli, sulphoraphane.

Some people lack the gene called GSTM1* that makes Sulphoraphane's action more potent. These people need to consume more sulphoraphane to get the same effect. By combining broccoli with foods that contain selenium you can make the effect of sulphoraphane upto thirteen times as effective.

Foods which contain selenium are, chicken, brazil nuts, prawns, eggs.
