What is BrocElite® Kids? 

BrocElite® Kids is a kids version of the only broccoli supplement on the market offering pure, naturally derived Stabilized Sulforaphane in the capsule, as opposed to its precursor glucoraphanin, which is often confusingly marketed as “sulforaphane glucosinolate.” Sulforaphane is a sulfur-based phytonutrient (a fancy term for a plant-based molecule) found in cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, brussels sprouts, and kale. To learn more about the differences between sulforaphane and glucoraphanin, check out this podcast. Research studies have shown that sulforaphane provides benefits in blocking inflammation, enabling detoxification, and promoting brain health.

How does BrocElite® Kids differ from BrocElite® Plus? 

BrocElite® Kids does not contain the added PEITC (the phenethyl form of the molecule), which makes it a less potent version of our BrocElite® Plus. Additionally, BrocElite® Kids contains 2.5mg Stabilized Sulforaphane per capsule, as opposed to 5mg Stabilized Sulforaphane per capsule of BrocElite® Plus.

What does BrocElite® do?

BrocElite® contains Stabilized Sulforaphane that combats inflammation, enables detoxification, promotes antioxidant production, improves sleep and brain health, and more.

What makes BrocElite Kids® different from other broccoli supplements? 

BrocElite® is the only broccoli supplement on the market offering naturally derived Stabilized Sulforaphane in the capsule. Nearly all other broccoli supplements contain the precursor molecule to sulforaphane, called glucoraphanin (often confusingly marketed as “sulforaphane glucosinolate”). Peer reviewed scientific studies demonstrate that individuals absorb approximately 80% of ingested sulforaphane, as opposed to <40% absorption for formulations that contain the precursor glucoraphanin.

How does it work? 

The Stabilized Sulforaphane in BrocElite® Kids is a potent inducer of Phase 2 detoxifying liver enzymes and helps protect cellular DNA as well as promote healthy cell replication and liver health. Sulforaphane also inactivates nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB), a key inducer of inflammation, while activating Nrf2, which has been shown to lower inflammation in animal models.

Why should children take BrocElite® Kids? 

Chronic infirmities and poor health do not develop overnight. They come about with mounting inflammation, oxidative stress, as well as the body’s inability to cope with an ever-increasing amount of toxins in the environment. Sulforaphane is a very intelligent phytonutrient that can help the body limit these detrimental processes, bringing your children the best in health support.

What are the ingredients? 

BrocElite® Kids is an all-natural product and does not contain any fillers, binders, preservatives, or lubricants. The first ingredient is Stabilized Sulforaphane, sourced from broccoli seed. The second ingredient is the Broccoli Seed Complex, which contains “cousin” molecules to sulforaphane. Cousin molecules are closely related to each other in function and structure. These molecules help to increase the bioavailability of sulforaphane and induce a higher Nrf2 induction. The last ingredient is the cellulose capsule, which is composed of only cellulose and water and is gluten-free and vegan.

What is PEITC and why isn’t it in BrocElite® Kids? 

PEITC is a cousin molecule to sulforaphane found in watercress. It is the added “Plus” in BrocElite® Plus and it works in synergy with sulforaphane to induce a higher Nrf-2 induction. PEITC is not included in BrocElite® Kids, making it a gentler version for kids or individuals with sensitive stomachs. 

Who can take BrocElite® Kids?

Kids and adults can take BrocElite® Kids. It depends on what works best for the individual. 

Should my child take BrocElite® Kids or BrocElite® Plus?

Both BrocElite® Kids and BrocElite® Plus are safe for children; it depends on what works best for the individual. The BrocElite® Plus is more potent (5mg Stabilized Sulforaphane per capsule). For younger children, taking too much sulforaphane at once could cause mild stomach upset. In case this occurs, the BrocElite® Kids version (2.5mg Stabilized Sulforaphane per capsule) provides a less potent and gentler option.

What if my child doesn’t like to swallow capsules? 

If your child does not like to swallow capsules, you can open the BrocElite® Kids capsules and pour the contents onto food or in a drink, as long as the food or drink is consumed within 24 hours. 

What is the suggested dosage?

Our recommended dosage for BrocElite® Kids is 1 capsule per day (2.5 mg Stabilized Sulforaphane). If tolerated, you can increase the dose to 2 capsules per day (5 mg Stabilized Sulforaphane). You can take both capsules together or one in the morning and one in the evening with food. 

Do you have to take it with food? 

We recommend taking BrocElite® Kids with food. But you can also take BrocElite® Kids on an empty stomach.

Are there any adverse effects to taking it? 

There are no known adverse effects to taking the Stabilized Sulforaphane in BrocElite® Kids. However, if you are new to this supplement or supplements in general and are struggling with health, we would recommend starting slowly and taking it with a glass of water and a meal.

Are there known medication or supplement interactions? 

No, there are no known medication or supplement interactions with BrocElite® Kids. However, sulforaphane can lower blood pressure. We recommend people who are on blood thinners or blood thinner medications to talk with their doctor before taking BrocElite®.

Should BrocElite® Kids be refrigerated?

BrocElite® Kids can be refrigerated after opening to maintain potency if you are using it sporadically. If you use BrocElite® Kids regularly, you do not need to keep it in the refrigerator.

Does it expire? 

Once BrocElite® Kids is opened, it should be kept in your refrigerator with the desiccant sachet insert (for moisture) and consumed within 60 days. Bottles are best consumed within 1 year of production. 

Is there a guarantee?

What is BerbElite®?

BerbElite® is a bioavailable berberine supplement produced by Mara Labs that contains berberine, a beneficial plant-based molecule, and our proprietary Broccoli Seed Complex, which markedly increases the bioavailability of berberine.

What does BerbElite® do?  

Berberine is a compound found in various plant species and has been used for thousands of years in Ayurvedic and Chinese traditional medicine to treat illness and inflammatory conditions. The bioavailable berberine in BerbElite® helps to lower blood sugar, improve sleep, reduce excess “bad” cholesterol while promoting “good” cholesterol, and boosts the production of “feel-good” chemicals in the brain, such as oxytocin, dopamine, and serotonin. Additionally, berberine can improve cellular turnover, liver, and cardiovascular function. Finally, berberine exhibits neuroprotective properties to help maintain normal brain function.

https://doi.org/10.1155/2013/308134

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5643735/

How is BerbElite® different from other berberine supplements?

Typical berberine supplements can be absorbed at a rate of about 0.7%, which is not enough to immediately lower blood sugar, even at a daily recommended dose (500mg-1,500mg). In other words, even if you took a recommended dose per day (like 1,500 mg), you would only absorb less than 1% (15mg) of the berberine in the capsule. Because of this, many berberine supplements cannot provide the dosage level needed to lower blood glucose or cholesterol.

The addition of our Broccoli Seed Complex makes our BerbElite® more bioavailable than the typical berberine supplement. Because our berberine gets into the cell, BerbElite® lowers blood glucose levels approximately ten points in just a few hours. (A blood ketone level of 0.5 mmol/L and a glucose of 82 mg/dL can be achieved in three hours with two BerbElite® capsules). 

How does BerbElite® work?

Once BerbElite® crosses the gut barrier and gets into the bloodstream, it acts to perform a variety of functions. 

Primarily, BerbElite® has a potent impact on lowering blood sugar, even with the first dose. It promotes the production of insulin, which delivers glucose to the cells that need it most, where it is used as energy. Berberine also positively impacts insulin resistance and has been shown in many clinical studies to have a lasting impact on lowering blood glucose. 

In addition, BerbElite® promotes the action of cell receptors that eliminate “bad” low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in the blood. Many studies on berberine demonstrate this ability and have observed that it does not impact activity of “good” high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. 

BerbElite® also helps increase the amount of neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocin in the brain by increasing the number of receptors available. Our formula can cross the blood-brain barrier to have a direct impact on these functions.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32353823/

How do I know BerbElite® is helping me?

Supplements work differently for everyone depending on body chemistry. However, the most common sign that BerbElite® is working is improved energy and sleep quality. If you routinely monitor your blood sugar, you may also notice a decrease in blood sugar after taking BerbElite®.  Working together with your physician to monitor blood sample changes based on your supplement use and lifestyle change can help guide you to additional goals and give you direction for improving your health.

What are the ingredients? 

BerbElite® is an all-natural product and does not contain any fillers, binders, preservatives or lubricants. The first ingredient is Berberine HCL, which is pure berberine extract activated by hydrochloride. The second ingredient is our proprietary Broccoli Seed Complex, which contains Stabilized Sulforaphane as well as its “cousin” molecules, which are similar in structure and function, to help increase the bioavailability of berberine. The last ingredient is the cellulose capsule, which is composed of only cellulose and water and is gluten-free and vegan.

Why is there “Broccoli Seed Complex” in the capsule in addition to berberine?

Our proprietary Broccoli Seed Complex contains Stabilized Sulforaphane as well as cousin molecules (AITC, BITC, Iberin) that work synergistically to increase the bioavailability of BerbElite®. This means that the Broccoli Seed Complex helps berberine get into your cells. 

How much Sulforaphane is in BerbElite®?

BerbElite® contains 2mg of Stabilized Sulforaphane per capsule. 

What is the suggested dosage? 

Our recommended dose for BerbElite® is 2 capsules per day (700 mg berberine). We recommend taking both capsules in the evening with dinner, but you can also take 1 BerbElite® in the morning with breakfast and 1 BerbElite® in the evening with dinner.

Who can take BerbElite®?

Adults and children can take BerbElite®.

Do I need to take it with food?

We recommend taking BerbElite® with food. But you can also take BerbElite® on an empty stomach.

Should I take it if I’m pregnant or nursing?

We recommend consulting your OBGYN before taking BerbElite®. If you have a history of gestational diabetes or are at risk for this condition, we strongly advise you to discuss treatment options with your physician to limit the risk of this condition. Consider supplementing with BerbElite® pre-pregnancy after a discussion with your physician.

Are there any adverse effects to taking it?

There are no known adverse effects to taking the sulforaphane in BerbElite®. However, if you are new to this supplement or supplements in general and are struggling with health, we would recommend starting slowly and taking it with a glass of water and a meal. 

Are there any known medication or supplement interactions?

Some medications may interact with the berberine in BerbElite®, including transplant, blood pressure, diabetic and sedative medications. We recommend consulting your physicians if you are adding BerbElite® to your regimen. 

Does it need to be refrigerated?

No. If you use it daily, BerbElite® does not need to be refrigerated. If you use BerbElite® periodically, we recommend putting it in the refrigerator so that the ingredients stay potent for a longer period, up to one year.

Does it expire?

Once BerbElite® is opened, it should be kept in your refrigerator with the desiccant sachet insert (for moisture) and consumed within 60 days. Bottles are best consumed within 1 year of production. 

Is there a guarantee?

We strongly believe you will benefit from BerbElite® and experience how important it is to your health. If you are not completely satisfied with our product, however, we offer a 100%, 60-day money back guarantee on your first bottle purchased from our website. Your original shipping costs will not be refunded.

What is QuercElite®?

QuercElite® is a bioavailable quercetin supplement produced by Mara Labs that contains quercetin, a beneficial plant-based molecule, and our proprietary Broccoli Seed Complex (BSC), which markedly increases the bioavailability of quercetin.

What does QuercElite® do?

Quercetin is an antioxidant found in many plant species that helps neutralize unstable molecules, called free radicals, that can cause damage to cells by creating chronic inflammation. The bioavailable quercetin in QuercElite® helps to boost your immunity, alleviate allergies, promote brain health, and protect against adverse effects of aging. 

How is QuercElite® different from other quercetin supplements?

Quercetin is normally only 5% bioavailable, but the broccoli seed complex in our QuercElite® increases the bioavailability and allows quercetin to cross the cell membrane, whereas normally quercetin on its own will not. Therefore, QuercElite® solves the bio-availability problem by getting it into the body so that it works fast.  

How does it work?

After getting through the gut barrier and into the bloodstream, QuercElite® performs a range of functions. 

With our highly bioavailable formula, QuercElite® has an immediate impact on allergies and other allergic responses from the body. Recent research has found that quercetin has a broad impact on the anti-inflammatory components of allergies and allergic reactions. Primarily, QuercElite® blocks the release of histamines (molecules that cause allergic reactions) from your immune cells. Similarly, QuercElite® can help with Mast Cell Activation by blocking histamine release. 

In addition to these anti-allergy mechanisms, QuercElite® has anti-aging and gut health benefits. As we age, cells can become less functional and get trapped in a state called senescence. These cells produce more inflammation in the body. Quercetin is a senolytic compound, meaning it clears the body of senescent cells and improves health. It is also one of the strongest natural tight junction inducers, improving gut health and gut barrier protection. The use of quercetin has been shown to protect cell viability and longevity, specifically in the prostate. Primarily, quercetin’s mechanisms have a positive effect on cellular inflammation and apoptosis, while maintaining healthy cells.

QuercElite® can be taken daily, alongside our other supplements, since it has anti-aging and gut health benefits. However, it can also be used as needed for immediate relief for allergies.

How do I know it’s helping me?

QuercElite® can work immediately to alleviate allergies, or long-term to improve gut health and prevent aging. Our clinical and lab experience along with customer testimonials inform us that the effects of QuercElite® are noticeable after only a few days to a few weeks. The most common testimony we receive is that people first notice a reduction in their allergies, both seasonal and environmental.

What are the ingredients? 

QuercElite® is an all-natural product and does not contain any fillers, binders, preservatives, or lubricants. The first ingredient is pure quercetin. The second ingredient is our proprietary Broccoli Seed Complex, which contains sulforaphane as well as its “cousin” molecules, which are similar in structure and function, to help increase the bioavailability of quercetin. The last ingredient is the cellulose capsule, which is composed of only cellulose and water and is gluten-free and vegan.

Why does QuercElite® contain the Broccoli Seed Complex?

Our proprietary Broccoli Seed Complex contains cousin molecules to sulforaphane that work synergistically to increase the bioavailability of QuercElite®, which means it helps quercetin get into the cell. 

How much Sulforaphane is in QuercElite®? 

QuercElite® contains 1.5 mg of Stabilized Sulforaphane per capsule. 

What is the suggested dosage?

Our recommended dose for QuercElite® is 2 capsules per day (350mg of quercetin). You can take both capsules at once, however, we recommend that you take one in the morning and one in the evening.

Who can take QuercElite®?

Kids and adults can take QuercElite®. It depends on what works for the individual.

What is SleepElite®?

SleepElite® is a bioavailable supplement produced by Mara Labs that contains berberine, 5-HTP, L-tryptophane, ashwagandha, vitamin B6 (pyridoxal-6-phosphate), trimethylglycine (TMG) and our proprietary Broccoli Seed Complex. 

What does SleepElite® do?

In short, SleepElite® helps you sleep, boosts your mood, and reduces stress. It contains the precursors to serotonin to help your body naturally produce serotonin and melatonin. 

How is SleepElite® different than other sleep supplements?

Unlike most sleep supplements, SleepElite® does not include melatonin. While melatonin is necessary for sleep, it can only be relied on for a short period of time. By including L-tryptophane, a bioavailable precursor to melatonin, your body can produce melatonin naturally in higher quantities than are available in a supplement. 

Ashwagandha and berberine are also unique to our sleep formula, and both help to reduce stress and anxiety, making it easier to fall asleep. In fact, recent research has found that berberine outperforms valium as a sleep aid. 

How does it work? 

SleepElite® has an immediate and sustained effect on sleep quality, mood, and stress.

L-tryptophan and 5-HTP are critical components of serotonin production. Additionally, vitamin B6 (as pyridoxal-6-phosphate) is a necessary cofactor to convert 5-HTP to serotonin. The result is increased serotonin available to regulate sleep, boost mood, and reduce stress response.

In addition to helping 5-HTP convert to serotonin, vitamin B6 helps regulate metabolism, improve nerve function in the brain, and support production of antibodies for your immune system. Importantly, vitamin B6 cannot perform its functions if it is not methylated. This means vitamin B6 needs to be slightly modified by the addition of a molecule to be effective in the body. SleepElite® includes vitamin B6 in its methylated form so it can begin working immediately. 

Ashwagandha will also improve your bedtime routine by reducing stress, anxiety, and blood pressure. Many studies suggest that ashwagandha significantly improves sleep quality and can help with insomnia. 

How do I know it’s helping me?

Supplements work differently for everyone depending on body chemistry. However, the most common sign that SleepElite® is working is reduced stress, improved ability to relax before bed, and better sleep quality. Our clinical and lab experience along with customer testimonials inform us that the effects of SleepElite® are noticeable after only a few days to a few weeks. The most common testimony we receive is that people first notice higher quality of sleep, and the ability to fall asleep easier. Over time, customers have also reported a healthy sleep cycle and reduced anxiety.

What are the ingredients? 

SleepElite® is an all-natural product and does not contain any fillers, binders, preservatives, or lubricants. The first ingredient is our proprietary Broccoli Seed Complex, which contains sulforaphane as and its “cousin” molecules, which are similar in structure and function, to help increase the bioavailability of SleepElite®. The other ingredients include berberine, 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), L-tryptophane, pyridoxal-5-phosphate (methylated, active vitamin B6), ashwagandha, and betaine anhydrous trimethylglycine (activated TMG). The last ingredient is the cellulose capsule, which is composed of only cellulose and water and is gluten-free and vegan.

Why does SleepElite® contain the Broccoli Seed Complex?

Our proprietary Broccoli Seed Complex contains cousin molecules to sulforaphane that work synergistically to increase the bioavailability of SleepElite®, which means it helps its ingredients get into the cell. 

How much Sulforaphane is in SleepElite®? 

SleepElite® contains 1.5 mg of Stabilized Sulforaphane per capsule (3mg per serving of two capsules). 

What is the suggested dosage?

Our recommended dose for SleepElite® is 2 capsules per day, in the evening, just before bedtime. 

Who can take SleepElite®?

Kids and adults can take SleepElite®. It depends on what works for the individual. 

Do I need to take it with food?

No, you do not need to take SleepElite® with food. If you choose to take SleepElite® with food, this will not affect how it gets absorbed in your body.

Should I take it if I’m pregnant or nursing?

We recommend consulting your OBGYN before taking SleepElite®.

Are there any adverse effects to taking it?

There are no known adverse effects to taking SleepElite®.  However, if you are new to this supplement or supplements in general and are struggling with health, we would recommend starting slowly and taking it with a glass of water and a meal.

Are there any known medication or supplement interactions?

Some medications may interact with the berberine in SleepElite®, including blood pressure, liver, and sedative medications. We recommend consulting your physicians if you are adding SleepElite® to your regimen.

Does it need to be refrigerated?

No. If you use it daily, SleepElite® does not require refrigeration. If you use SleepElite® periodically, we recommend putting it in the refrigerator so that the ingredients stay potent for a longer period, up to one year.

What is CurcElite®?      

CurcElite® is a highly bioavailable curcumin supplement produced by Mara Labs that contains curcumin and our patented carrier molecule, which increases the bioavailability of curcumin. 

What does CurcElite® do?

Curcumin is the active component in turmeric and has been used for thousands of years in Ayurvedic medicine to treat illness and inflammatory conditions. The bioavailable curcumin in CurcElite® blocks inflammation by suppressing the inflammatory pathway Nf-kb. Additionally, CurcElite® helps boost antioxidant levels in the body to further reduce inflammation. 

Is CurcElite® bioavailable? 

Yes. Our pre-clinical trial on urine samples has shown CurcElite® to be up to 30-times more bioavailable than the next best curcumin product. You can read more about CurcElite® bioavailability in one of our journal articles here.

What makes CurcElite® different from other curcumin supplements?

Curcumin has low bioavailability—less than 1% can be used by the body. Our patented carrier molecule in Curcelite® increases curcumin’s absorption in the appropriate portion of the gastrointestinal tract, improving its entry into the cell. Our pre-clinical trial on urine samples has shown CurcElite® to be up to 30-times more bioavailable than the next best curcumin product.

How does it work? 

Our CurcElite® formula uses a patented carrier molecule to help curcumin cross the gut lining and work throughout your body to turn off the pro-inflammatory NF-κB pathway. This carrier molecule is composed of two natural substances, to both increase the curcumin's absorption through the gut barrier and to improve its entry into the cell. Curcumin is one of the best natural compounds at turning off this NF-κB pathway. Other curcumin products don't cross the gut lining but ours does, and our internal tests show that it's about 20 times more bioavailable than the best curcumin on the market. You can read more about curcumin’s bioavailability in one of our journal articles here.

Can I take CurcElite® with BrocElite®?

Yes! BrocElite® and CurcElite® work on inflammation in different ways, ensuring a synergistic benefit when both are taken. You can read more about this synergistic benefit of sulforaphane and curcumin here. We recommend taking 1 BrocElite® and 1 CurcElite® in the morning with breakfast, and 1 BrocElite® and 1 CurcElite® in the evening with dinner. 

What is the suggested dose? 

Our recommended dose for CurcElite® is 2 capsules per day. You can take one in the morning with breakfast and one in the evening with dinner, or you can take both capsules at once. 

Do you have to take it with food?

There are no known side effects to taking the bioavailable curcumin in CurcElite®.  Curcumin’s side effects are generally gastrointestinal and may include mild stomach upset. However, if you are new to this supplement or supplements in general and are struggling with health, we would recommend starting slowly and taking it with a glass of water and a meal.

Are there known medication or supplement interactions? 

No, there are no known medication or supplement interactions with CurcElite®.  However, if you are taking multiple medications or supplements, please consult your physician before adding CurcElite® to your regimen.

Should CurcElite® be refrigerated?

CurcElite® does not need to be refrigerated. If you use CurcElite® periodically, we recommend putting it in the refrigerator so that the ingredients stay potent for a longer period, up to two years.

Does it expire? 

Once CurcElite® is opened it is best consumed within two years of production.

What is ResverElite™?

ResverElite™ is a highly bioavailable resveratrol supplement produced by Mara Labs that contains resveratrol and our patented carrier molecule, which increases the bioavailability of resveratrol.

What does ResverElite™ do?

Resveratrol is a compound found in plants, such as grape skin and seeds, that has demonstrated antioxidant, anti-aging, and cardioprotective benefits. The bioavailable resveratrol in ResverElite™ improves cardiovascular function by regulating cell signaling pathways to inhibit dysfunction and promote normal cellular activity. Additionally, ResverElite™ activates a group of proteins called sirtuins that are responsible for proper cellular functions, like inflammatory response, cellular aging, metabolism, and mitochondrial health . ResverElite™ also acts as an antioxidant to eliminate free radicals and protect cells from damage .

Is ResverElite™ bioavailable?

Yes. ResverElite™ contains a patented carrier molecule that makes resveratrol soluble and increases its longevity in the bloodstream so it can make it to the cells that can utilize it. This makes the resveratrol in our ResverElite™ more bioavailable than the next leading resveratrol supplement on the market. You can learn more about the bioavailability of resveratrol in
one of our podcasts here.

How does it work?

ResverElite™ contains our patented carrier molecule that increases resveratrol’s availability to be absorbed, primarily in the liver and the gut. Normally, resveratrol has low bioavailabilit —less than 1% can be used by the body, which is why many people take a high dose (usually 1000mg) to receive any benefit. Our process improves its entry into the bloodstream, therefore amplifying its ability to work throughout the body. You can learn more about the bioavailability of resveratrol in
one of our podcasts here.

What makes ResverElite™ different from other resveratrol supplements?

About 1-2% of the resveratrol you take actually gets into the gut barrier—but the science behind our patented carrier molecule in ResverElite™ makes it more bioavailable than the next leading resveratrol supplement on the market. You can learn more about the bioavailability of resveratrol in one of our podcasts here.

Can I take ResverElite™ with BrocElite®?

Yes! BrocElite® and ResverElite™ work on cellular function in different ways and are designed to be taken alongside each other. We recommend taking BrocElite® and 1 ResverElite™ in the morning with breakfast, and 1 BrocElite® and 1 ResverElite™ in the evening with dinner.

What is the suggested dose?

Our recommended dose for ResverElite™ is 2 capsules per day for 120mg of resveratrol. You can take one in the morning with breakfast and one in the evening with dinner, or you can take both capsules at once.

Do you have to take it with food?

You can take ResverElite™ either on an empty stomach or with food. 

Who can take ResverElite™?

Anyone can take ResverElite™, especially those concerned with longevity, blood pressure, and insulin.

What does the Broccoli Seed Sprouting Kit include?

The kit includes a 1/2lb bag of broccoli seeds with instructions and a stainless steel screen lid for a wide-mouth Mason Jar. (Note: The glass Mason Jar is NOT included.) 

Why should I sprout broccoli seeds? 

Sprouting broccoli seeds is an affordable way to source glucoraphanin, which is the precursor to sulforaphane. When the sprouts are metastasized (chewed), the enzyme myrosinase converts glucoraphanin into sulforaphane (glucoraphanin + myrosinase → sulforaphane). We suggest sprouting broccoli seeds alongside radish seeds, which contain the enzyme myrosinase. 

Can I sprout broccoli seeds with radish seeds? 

Yes! We highly recommend sprouting broccoli seeds and radish seeds. You can sprout them separately but eat them together. Broccoli seeds contain glucoraphanin, the precursor to sulforaphane, and radish seeds contain myrosinase, the enzyme necessary for conversion (glucoraphanin + myrosinase → sulforaphane). Make sure to masticate (chew) the sprouts for proper conversion. We recommend sprouting 1 tablespoon of radish seed for every 4 tablespoons of broccoli seed.

What is the difference between broccoli seeds and BrocElite Plus®? 

Our broccoli seeds contain a reliable source of glucoraphanin, which can be converted to sulforaphane. Sprouts are a good way to receive glucoraphanin, but they must interact with an enzyme in order to turn into sulforaphane (glucoraphanin + myrosinase --> sulforaphane). Whereas BrocElite® contains  pure, naturally derived Stabilized Sulforaphane right in the capsule. To learn more about the differences between sprouting versus supplements, check out this article. 

Why do you offer broccoli seeds? 

We offer the ease and affordability of sprouting because we care about and believe in making sulforaphane accessible to all. These seeds are high quality and have been tested to verify that they contain glucoraphanin, the precursor to sulforaphane. (Many seeds on the market do not contain adequate levels.)

Are your seeds organic? 

Our broccoli seeds are non-GMO, no spray, and glyphosate-free (very important to us), however, they are not certified organic. We haven't been able to find a national source of certified organic seeds that contain glucoraphanin, the precursor to sulforaphane. We test all our small batches to ensure that the seeds contain glucoraphanin, since many broccoli seeds do not contain sufficient levels.
