Sulforaphane without the work of sprouting seeds

A supplement manufacturer has a product designed to enhance absorption of sulforaphane, by delivering a precursor in an enteric coated tab. It's not cheap, at nearly $1 / tablet but may be easier than raising sprouts.

This one says it is 20 times more concentrated than Broccoli:

BroccoMax - A Standardized Concentration of Sulforaphane Glucosinolate (SGS) and the Enzyme Myrosinase from Broccoli Seeds That Have Been Processed Using Ultra Clean Super Critical Technology.

BroccoMax® broccoli seed extract is manufactured using a patented process that preserves myrosinase, the enzyme in broccoli that metabolizes SGS (Sulforaphane Glucosinolate, a.k.a. glucoraphanin) in the small intestine into sulforaphane.

That supplement you linked to is a source of sulforaphane, but the issue is that the body doesn't directly absorb sulforaphane. Glucoraphanin is what the body needs to convert into sulforaphane.

so, what is in sprouts? sulforaphorane or Glucoraphinin or both.
