Contains at least 0.3% sulforaphane and 100mg DIM per tablet.

Broccoli, a vegetable of the family of crucifers like cauliflower, is regarded as healthy. It is rich in secondary plant substances, minerals such as potassium, calcium, phosphorus, iron, zinc and sodium as well as vitamins such as B1, B2, B6, E and especially vitamin C and beta-carotene. Furthermore, it contains the health-promoting secondary plant substances sulforaphane and DIM (diindolylmethane).

Sulforaphane and Dim (Diindolylmethane)

Sulforaphane is a mustard oil glycoside. There are over 120 different mustard oil glycosides, which are responsible for the pungent flavour of radishes and in some cases bitter taste of different kinds of cabbages. In the plants, they are part of the natural defences against viruses, fungi and bacteria.

Sulforaphane is a strong indirect antioxidant. Unlike vitamin C or vitamin E, the vital substance does not neutralise free radicals directly, but indirectly by activating certain enzymes, resulting in effective antioxidant defence mechanisms.

DIM (diindolylmethane) is a substance produced during the digestion of indole-3-carbinol, a mustard oil. This in turn is produced by the breakdown of glucobrassicin, which is found in high amounts in cruciferous vegetables such as cauliflower, broccoli and kale.
