Bolt's Broccoli protocol has gone off the rails

[Bolt_Upright]

So... there is a lot of experimenting going on with Broccoli Sprouts. I have been eating 2 cups of sprouts (3/4 Broccoli, 1/4 Radish) for quite a while. I was eating them with some oil and vinegar dressing.

But the other day my wife made Chili, so I put two huge scoops of chili on my 2 cups of sprouts. It was great! Heating sprouts to 60 degrees Celsius should release more Sulforaphane. I'm sure I am not getting the sprouts, or at least not getting most of them, to 60 degrees.

I really should not eat chili, so I switched it up to having a meatball microwaved in a bowl with a lot of grease and meat juice from when I baked the meatball. Nuked it for 3 minutes on high, broke it up, and poured it over my bowl of sprouts. So I am adding a little heat, which may be good, and having a great meal.

This makes sense to me, but I am a High School Graduate, prone to error, and I have poor impulse control.

IMHO adding saturated fat is ok, but I hope you’re using a meat thermometer because oil temp can get > 60C very quickly.

On a tangential subject I just listened to a great podcast interview with a guy named Don Layton PhD who is an expert on protein metabolism. I’ll text you a link. See you tomorrow on zoom.

What is the benefit to broccoli sprouts...sounds very interesting. I am intrigued. Thanks

Do a search for Sulforaphane in this community:

This is a great question Rose! I should be able to answer it. We should all have answers to why we take things. I will work on this.

Thanks looking forward to hearing back
