Why Can't I Just Eat Broccoli?
Since sulforaphane is associated with cruciferous vegetables, namely broccoli and broccoli sprouts, many people think they can get the benefits of sulforaphane just by eating their vegetables. Unfortunately, it isn’t that simple, as sulforaphane itself is not found in broccoli. Rather it is the essential ingredients, glucoraphanin and myrosinase, that are present. Unfortunately, there may not be enough of either compound in the plant to allow for adequate sulforaphane production. This can be due to seed quality, soil composition, the age of the plant, and many other factors.
Additionally, any myrosinase enzyme that is present in the plant can be destroyed during the cooking process. So while glucoraphanin and the myrosinase enzyme can be found in the vegetables you eat, the ones you buy from the market are not necessarily reliable sources of either compound.

What is Avmacol® Extra Strength?
Avmacol® Extra Strength is a patented, sulforaphane-producing supplement that works in combination with Maitake mushroom extract (containing beta-glucans) to support your body's natural detoxification process better than sulforaphane alone.1Avmacol® Extra Strength provides glucoraphanin, also known as sulforaphane glucosinolate, and active myrosinase enzyme, which are the essential ingredients needed for sulforaphane production. Without active myrosinase enzyme, one may not be able to reap sulforaphane’s many health-promoting benefits.
How Maitake Mushroom Extract Works in Combination with Sulforaphane
The Maitake mushroom extract (containing beta-glucans) works in combination with sulforaphane to support your body’s natural detoxification process better than sulforaphane alone.1In addition, the Maitake mushroom extract found in Avmacol® Extra Strength provides the added bonus of immune support by promoting neutrophil function and natural killer cell activity.

The Science Behind Avmacol®Extra Strength
The combination of sulforaphane and Maitake extract supports the movement (or translocation) from the cytoplasm to the nucleus of NRF2 and increases the levels of certain Phase 2 enzymes. Below are images of a technique called immunofluorescence which illustrate how much protein is being produced in the cell and the location of that protein.


In control cells (left panel), the green staining indicates that NRF2 remains largely in the cytoplasm (arrows) without much protein located in the nucleus, which is counter-stained in blue. When cells are exposed to sulforaphane and Maitake (right panel), NRF2 moves to the nucleus (arrows) where it can bind to DNA to turn on expression of certain Phase 2 enzymes.

In control cells (left panel) NQO1 protein expression is indicated by the green staining. When cells are exposed to sulforaphane and Maitake (right panel), the level of NQO1 staining, representing the amount of protein, is increased.

Who Would Benefit from Avmacol® Extra Strength?
We are capable of incredible things; and when our bodies get the support they need, the results can be amazing. Avmacol® unleashes the power of broccoli to help your body fight off toxin-related stress at the cellular level.
How Avmacol® Extra Strength Work?
OurSulforaphane Production System®supplies broccoli seed extract (glucoraphanin) and Myrosimax® (Active Myrosinase Enzyme) which helps promote sulforaphane production in your body. As depicted in the diagram below, when sulforaphane enters your cells it allows for a master regulator, known as NRF2, to enter the nucleus and bind to DNA. This helps increase the production of important Phase 2 detoxifying enzymes, promoting your body’s natural detoxification process, thereby supporting the elimination of potentially harmful metabolites.*
The Importance of Active Myrosinase Enzyme
The conversion of glucoraphanin to sulforaphane can be expressed in this simple equation:
