Where to buy broccoli extract in the UK
For generations mums all over the world have been encouraging their children to "eat their greens". And for good reason too, vegetables are important in every diet as they provide us with many of the essential vitamins and minerals we need for all round good health.
However it appears one vegetable may be more important than previously thought.
In recent clinical studies, sulforaphane - a chemical normally found in broccoli, has shown to actively seek out and destroy cancer stem cells, normally responsible for fueling the growth of tumours.
The results of the studies undertaken by a leading Comprehensive Cancer Centre showed that mice that were treated with broccoli extract were unable to generate new tumours. The surprising effect was that normal cells were left unharmed, something which conventional cancer treatments are yet to offer.
However, it is not just mice who have been the subject of the study. Researchers have also tested broccoli extract on human breast cancer cells, where they noted similar results and a similar fall in cancer stem cells.
Broccoli extract has also shown to speed up the repair of damaged DNA in cells and help keep arteries healthy.
