Jarrow Formulas BroccoMax Sulforaphane Glucosinolate 35 MG, Sulforaphane Generator Supports Liver Health, 60 Veggie Capsules, Up to a 30 Day Supply

Strong stuff. Makes you very resilient to stress and quite gassy. I sleep deeper but also get a cortisol spike early in the morning waking me up prematurely. Need to eat something to fall back asleep. I used half the recommended dose on the bottle to mitagate this. Another welcomed benefit is a 3% improvement in 5k running time and 6-7% in half marathon time which is more effective than even keytones. It’s actually far above creatine and beta alanine together.

I have type 2 diabetes, use various prescribed drugs including insulin, follow a extremely strict ultra low carb diet, all as prescribed by my two doctors, yet have struggled for years to keep blood sugar low; it has always jumped around. I have never met anyone else with as severed a problem while being so strict. My own doctor says I am a "model diabetic patient." I have also tried nearly every available pill, food and trick that has claimed to help, but none of those have made significant difference, including chromium, "miracle cures", etc. I continually monitor studies which show an effect on blood sugar, which is how I discovered this product. You can buy the same extract the researchers used, but BroccoMax is a lot less expensive. The best suppements until now have been 5 g of Ceylon cinnamon and 1 g of portulaca daily divided into two doses, which combined often lower it by 5%. I have been using BroccoMax for about 45 days, and it immediately made a very noticeable difference, consistently lowering it another 20%. This means I have had to really cut back on my Insulin to keep from getting "lows." I am still in the process of reducing my insulin even more.Originally it was planned that I take 4 * 500 mg Metformin XL pills daily, but anything over 2 pills produced constant diarrhea. The Boccomax seems to have made up for the two pills I cannot take, and it has not produced any ill effects. While the blood sugar has dropped well below 100, so far I have not had any "hypros", although I have been extremely careful. Because I am so big, I am taking almost double the amount stated on the bottle, divided into 3 doses, taken on an empty stomach and hour before meals. Cutting my insulin means that I will lose weight. I have even been able to eat 5 fresh cherries without raising my blood sugar level--I have not been able to tolerate any non-fiber carbs before.Your experience may well be different; just be extremely diligent in monitoring your blood sugar while using this. I am not suggesting that this is a cure; continue to work with your doctor. In effect, it gets the message to your liver that there is plenty of sugar in the bloodstream, so it does not need to keep making more.

After doing tons of research and using estro block alone that stopped working I read I need to add to more supplements for it to work. I Started using this along with calcium d glucuranate and estro block for my severe pms and hormone imbalance.I have severe estrogen dominance that has absolutely destroyed 10 years of my life. I never wanted to be put on synthetic drugs so i suffered.My main symptoms were painful periods, heavy flow, severe cystic acne , horrible mood swings and unbearable pms . I literally thought I was dying for 10 years every-time I was going to get my period for at least 2 weeks leading up. I was miserable and my moods were taking me to a really dark place. I really only had a 1 week timeframe between each cycle where my hormones were not controlling me.I can honestly say taking the 3 supplements together i listed has changed my life drastically. It did take about 3 months to see results but My periods now only last 5 days instead of 12, I only get cramps the first 2 days, My hormonal acne has almost diminished and the best part is my mood. I am literally like a different person, no more depression or anger. No more uncontrollable mood swings. Im happy all the time again and feel well . everyone tells me I have turned into a totally different person.I did a test and stopped taking these for a month and slowly everything started coming back , I will tk these for as long as I have to in order to feel normal. Great A++++ product

I don't write reviews often, but felt obligated after reading a lot of faulty misguided and uneducated one star reviews. One review states it only has 30mcg compared to mercolas 350mcg. Actually this contains 30mg which is 30,000 mcg which is exponentially more potent than mercolas. Another review states it's only glucosinolate and not sulforaphane.Sulforaphane is not stable and doesn't actually exist naturally in appreciable quantities in nature. Broccoli contains Glucosinolate and myrosinase, and when eaten/ chewed, the two mix in the gut and myrosinase converts glucosinolate into sulforaphane. This product contains both enzymes (one review claims it doesn't contain myrosinase). So taking this product is mimicking what happens in nature. Glucosinolate content is what you need to look at as long as some myrosinase is present. This has large quantities (30mg) and is higher than any other supplement I've seen on the market. Many other supplements lack myrosinase so that's something you'll want to pay attention to since glucosinolate won't convert to sulforaphane without it.I dropped it to four stars because there are two things to be aware of: it now contains rice maltodextrin. I'm not a fan that they put carbs into this pill. The other is that it may give you some mild gut distress. I think that's why it says to eat 30 min after consuming. But the upside of taking this supplement outweighs the downside in my opinion.

Useful supplement, even though I try to eat plenty of greens, I decided that a supplement is desireable.
