1  General Discussion / Scientific Literature / Phase 2 response induction on: October 25, 2006, 05:46:00 PM
Okay, here's my next question!  
At one of the lectures I attended, there was a chart that showed Phase 2 Response Induction by a Variety of Phytochemicals and sulforaphane was right at the top (ahead of pinostrobin, zeaxanthin, quercitin, curcumin and carotenoids and chlorophyllin, B-12 and chlorophyll.)
It was based on 2 Fahey studies and a Khachick study ...
I don't understand the bottom where it shows the X-axis title as
"Potency -- Amount Required for CD (microMoles)"

What is CD?  And can you tell me approximately what tiny amount of sulforaphane induced what, please?

SGS-Rich BroccoSprouts(R) Researchers at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, who first isolated sulforaphane from broccoli in 1992, found that young broccoli sprouts, in particular, contained concentrations of SGS that were 20 to 50 times greater than those found in adult cooked broccoli. These broccoli sprouts are now available to consumers as BroccoSprouts(R). One ounce of BroccoSprouts has the same amount of SGS as 1-1/4 pounds (20 ounces) of mature, cooked broccoli.


So... what is 11/4 pounds?  (it says it equates to 20 ounces) but it doesn't make sense... maybe I'm not reading it right?   help, pls :roll:
