Sulforaphane is a natural plant compound commonly found in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli or cauliflower and is taken as a supplement for cardiovascular and digestive benefits. When found in foods Sulforaphane is in the inactive form known as glucoraphanin. It becomes activated in a chemical reaction when it comes into contact with myrosinase, an enzyme which is released as a defense response in plants when they are damaged.
