Product Information

• Name: Glucoraphanin
• Synonyms: Sulforaphane glucosinolate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Glucoraphanin is a bioactive compound, specifically a glucosinolate, which is a secondary metabolite derived from cruciferous vegetables, predominantly broccoli. Its mode of action involves conversion into sulforaphane through the enzyme myrosinase, which can occur during digestion or when the plant tissue is damaged. Sulforaphane then acts as a potent inducer of phase II detoxification enzymes and modulates antioxidant responses via the activation of the Nrf2 (nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2) pathway.
