Broccoli Sprouting Instructions

[Bolt_Upright]

I put together a web page with broccoli sprouting instructions and links to videos and supplies. This way, if anybody asks how to sprout, I can just point them to this page: rbd-pd-protocols.blogspot.c...

Thank you, Dave.

It's my pleasure. Now that I am retired I need something to do

🙏 much appreciated!

You are perhaps the most prolific if not the preeminent researcher on the forum

[Bolt_Upright in reply to MBAnderson]

You made me look. 374 posts. 375 is on the way. Prolific. Volume over quality. If I wrote a book it would be called "Cheaper, Faster, Good Enough". Thanks Marc.

Your bio says, "I have not been diagnosed with PK."

What's PK?

I've learned a lot in the last 19 months. Fixed it!

Hi Bolt, my apologies I'm very much behind the curve on this one... Please what are the benefits of broccoli sprouts? Eeh please kindly state it here briefly, not links... I've got phobia of going through long thread and source links 😅 Many thanks

This is speculative, and the research is mostly focused on Sulforaphane, which comes from Broccoli Sprouts but not everybody produces sulforaphane (although, I think over time they will if they keep eating it). I think supplements are weak. There is a FB group you might want to join: Broccoli & Sulforaphane Research Group for Parkinson's disease facebook.com/groups/6458767...

So... benefits. I am still digging into them to create a simple list. This is what I have so far:

Broccoli Sprouts - Sulforaphane Benefits:

Broccoli Sprout Beverage Can Clear Acrolein

Sulforaphane may activate certain genes that protect cells against oxidative stress, inflammation, and DNA-damage 

Sulforaphane may Treat Helicobacter pylori infections

Sulforaphane may reduce gut inflammation

Sulforaphane may reduce brain inflammation

Sulforaphane may fix leaky gut

Sulforaphane may improve mitochondrial function

Sulforaphane may boost BDNF

Sulforaphane may boost glutathione

SFN exhibited significant antiviral activity against influenza (the flu), HIV, Epstein-Barr virus, and the hepatitis C virus

Sulforaphane activates Nrf2-dependent antioxidant enzyme activities, thereby protecting stomach cells from oxidative injury

Sulforaphane may treat depression

Sulforaphane improved deficits in motor coordination and inhibited dopaminergic neuronal loss

I have a web page where I am working on building on this information: rbd-pd-protocols.blogspot.c...
