The Benefits of Consuming Broccoli Sprouts

When you compare broccoli sprouts to adult broccoli, there's something like an order of magnitude more sulforaphane that's able to be produced by the broccoli sprouts. As the seed goes through the metamorphosis into the sprout, it's actually getting diluted. By the time you get up to a whole head of broccoli,. there's the same amount of sulforaphanes or glucoraphanin as there was in that one seed. So you're getting more vitamin C, you'regetting more fiber, but the glucoraphans is in that seed.
