Supports Your Body’s Natural Detox Pathways
Sulforaphane helps activate your body’s own detoxification processes to deal with certain environmental toxins and everyday exposures.
Simple, Once-Daily Sulforaphane Support
Avmacol® Extra Strength provides a convenient daily serving of sulforaphane-supporting ingredients in just one tablet per day, taken with a meal. Each tablet includes vitamin C and a clinically studied blend of broccoli seed & sprout extract (ERS92®), moringa leaf, mustard seed, beta-glucan, and maitake extract—formulated to activate sulforaphane production in the body.
The vegetarian, gluten-free formula is carefully crafted using high-quality ingredients, with additional excipients used in amounts less than 2%. If you have a medical condition or take medications, consult your physician before use.
From Broccoli to Biochemistry: How Sulforaphane Supports Your Body
Sulforaphane is a result of two specific compounds:
Glucoraphanin, found in broccoli seed and sprout extract
Myrosinase, a natural enzyme that activates glucoraphanin
What is Glucoraphanin?
Glucoraphanin, also known as sulforaphane glucosinolate, is a compound that is present in many cruciferous vegetables, most notably in broccoli. It is an essential ingredient needed for sulforaphane production because it is sulforaphane’s direct precursor. The glucoraphanin is converted into sulforaphane after it is processed by an active myrosinase enzyme.
What is Myrosinase?
Myrosinase is an important enzyme required to convert glucoraphanin into sulforaphane. Additionally, it can be found in cruciferous vegetables, though it can become inactivated during the cooking process.
Patented, shelf-stable, and tableted formula
Contains glucoraphanin + active myrosinase enzyme
Supports immune health with added beta-glucan
Combination of ingredients works better than sulforaphane alone
The Importance of Active Myrosinase Enzyme
The conversion of glucoraphanin to sulforaphane can be expressed in this simple equation:
Active myrosinase enzyme is essential for the conversion of glucoraphan into sulforaphane. Without this enzyme, it may not be possible to reap sulforaphane's many health-promoting benefits, which is why you’ll always find Myrosimax® (Active myrosinase Enzyme) in the Avmacol® brand family.Even though it is true that both glucoraphanin and the myrosinase enzyme can be found in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and cauliflower, there may not be enough of either compound to allow for adequate sulforaphane production. This can be due to seed quality, soil composition, and many other factors. Additionally, the myrosinase enzyme can be destroyed during the cooking process. So while both glucoraphanin and the myrosinase enzyme can be found in the vegetables you eat, the ones you buy from the market are not reliable sources of either compound.The Avmacol® brand contains both glucoraphanin and Myrosimax® (Active Myrosinase Enzyme), the essential ingredients needed to promote sulforaphane production.*
