I thought it was indole-3-carbinol instead of sulphoraphane?
I-3-C is in there, in addition to sulphoraphane. Both are anti-cancer, and are easily destroyed during the cooking processes. If broccoli is lightly steamed or boiled for less than 10 minutes, a lot of the I-3-C remains intact (~80%) - while many anti-nutrients are destroyed.
No derailing the thread guys. PM if you have to talk to each other.
It's relevant to you, Sarge, as the I-3-C in question is indeed a useful aromatase inhibitor AND is available in supplement form.
Ah I see, thank you. Is the absorbtion good enough with the supplement vs. raw broccoli? I've heard that mutlivitamins and suppliments are not as good as the real vegetables because they don't absorb into the body as well.
