Interview with Dr. Jed Fahey.

Over a period of nearly three decades, Dr. Fahey and his colleagues have demonstrated in cell, rodent, and human studies an incredible, evolutionarily conserved, and highly beneficial cellular response to compounds like sulforaphane in broccoli and moringin in moringa.

In this discussion, we covered a broad range of topics related to hormesis, sprouting, and sulforaphane, including dosing, duration of effects, and hormetic effects. Dr. Fahey also addressed a wide range of concerns about sprouting broccoli seeds at home, including harvesting, storing, and consuming home-grown sprouts.

Watch to learn Dr. Fahey's thoughts on…

00:04:36 - The minimum daily dose of sulforaphane that elicits beneficial health effects

00:09:21 - Why gauging the amount of sulforaphane in foods presents challenges

00:14:54 - Workarounds to enhance the sulforaphane in cooked foods

00:20:55 - How often to consume broccoli sprouts and how long their effects last

00:36:45 - The effects of sulforaphane on glutathione production in the brain

00:40:29 - The effects of sulforaphane on cancer

01:14:43 - Alternatives to sprouts, such as supplements (and which ones Dr. Fahey recommends)

01:36:45 - The evidence that strongly suggests sulforaphane does not have a meaningful goitrogenic effect and, more importantly, has no negative effect on thyroid health

01:33:10 - Response to Paul Saladino's remarks on Joe Rogan's podcast

01:48:11 - Safety concerns regarding sulforaphane

Thanks a lot for the video.

good one

I have been following the heating sprouts extraction protocol, and the broccoli seed extraction group is following heat extraction methods too. However according to Drr Fahey, an expert on sulphorapane, heating does not increase potency. He also names several worthwhile sulphoraphane supplements on the market. I think after seeing this great video I'll put my lab equipment away, and just eat the sprouts, and take the supplement...unless I hear otherwise.

Really interesting thank you for posting Biensur - I've subscribed to her YouTube channel. I am nearly 3 weeks into the heating and infusing seeds and so will continue for at least another 3. I have had small improvements and want to give it long enough to prove itself such (rather than just a PD phase!) Switching to supplement would confuse the matter given I've got to this point.I may well change later, or use supplements when more out and about. At the moment infusing every couple of days is fine as we are at home more. Now I have the kit for doing it it is cost effective too.

Being that this interview is 1 and 53 minutes long might discourage some from watching it. For those, here are 21 bite-size takeaways.

I thought your new job was as a cashier not the Editorial office! Paulette

[Biensur]

Marc, I was joking! The reference was to a humorous clip you posted saying "My new job!" of a cashier who repeatedly scanned the same products much to the surprise and dismay of the customers.

[MBAnderson in reply to Biensur]

Oh, that video. That was a funny video. Thank you for the clarification. Lotta jokes go over my head.
