Look Younger By Eating Broccoli Sprouts Every Day

Broccoli sprouts are rich in sulforaphane, which has many health benefits, including helping you look younger. Sulforaphane protects your skin and makes it look younger with its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Sulforaphane helps prevent skin aging by blocking UV radiation. Sulforaphane has been shown to reduce UV-induced inflammation, protect against oxidative damage, and boost collagen production.

Sulforaphane has anti-aging, anti-cancer, immune-boosting, and heart-health benefits. Broccoli sprouts are one of the best dietary sources of sulforaphane, with higher concentrations than mature broccoli.

While eating broccoli sprouts can be healthy, it’s not a substitute for sunscreen and other UV protection. Add broccoli sprouts to your salads, sandwiches, or smoothies.

Find out how you can make your broccoli sprouts below!

How To Make Broccoli Sprouts

Look younger and reduce inflammation! Broccoli sprouts are the NUMBER ONE food to eat if you want to stay healthy because they are the best food for reducing inflammation caused by stress.

You can grow them at home and discover the benefits of the Sulforaphane found in broccoli sprouts for reducing inflammation and fighting cancer.

Leading edge research by Dr Rhonda Patrick, now tells us that the sulforaphane from broccoli seed sprouts has powerful antioxidants and detoxification elements and can reverse the signs of aging by;

  • Decreasing inflammation
  • Reducing oxidative stress and improves liver function
  • Relieving depression
  • Increasing the body detoxification of airborne pollutants
  • Protection against Alzheimer’s
  • Helping fight against cancer
  • Boosting the antioxidant capacity of cells
  • Improving brain function
  • Protecting skin against UVA & UBA / sun damage
  • Lowering cholesterol

Similarly, Dr. Jed W. Fahey studies show the nutritional benefits of broccoli sprouts, which are high in isothiocyanates. Isothiocyanates have powerful anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. Broccoli sprouts have more of these compounds than mature broccoli. Dr. Fahey emphasizes broccoli sprouts’ nutritional value and health benefits.

Where can you buy broccoli sprouts?

It’s easier and cheaper to grow your own sprouts. If you don’t want to grow them at home, you can usually buy broccoli sprouts at natural food grocers, grocery stores, or farmers’ markets.

Farmer’s markets and health food stores sell all kinds of sprouts. Make sure you trust your source to get the best quality.

However, if you decide to grow your own sprouts, you need to be careful. Sprouting requires cleanliness and diligence due to contamination risk. Make sure your jar, lid, and utensils are clean. Wet sprouts can grow mold in the fridge. Throw away sprouts that smell bad. They’re good if they smell like broccoli!
