What’s the difference between KOYAH’s capsules and sulforaphane supplements?
KOYAH’s broccoli sprout capsules are made with pure organic, freeze-dried broccoli sprouts which contain and are 3rd party tested for glucoraphanin (the precursor to sulforaphane) and myrosinase (the enzyme needed to produce sulforaphane). In contrast, sulforaphane supplements typically contain an isolated or synthetic form of sulforaphane. Our capsules provide a whole-food option, preserving the complete nutrient profile of the sprouts.
Do KOYAH’s capsules provide the same benefits as sulforaphane supplements?
When glucoraphanin interacts with myrosinase, sulforaphane is naturally produced in your body. KOYAH’s capsules deliver both the precursor and the enzyme, helping your body absorb sulforaphane in a natural way.
Why choose KOYAH’s capsules over sulforaphane supplements?
KOYAH’s capsules offer a whole-food, natural approach, keeping the nutrients and compounds found in fresh sprouts. You get more than just sulforaphane—you get the complete synergy of the plant for a possible broader range of health benefits.
Can KOYAH’s capsules guarantee a certain amount of sulforaphane?
Since our capsules use whole foods, the amount of sulforaphane produced in your body depends on how it processes glucoraphanin and myrosinase. While sulforaphane supplements provide a standardized dose, KOYAH’s capsules focus on a balanced and natural approach.
Are KOYAH’s capsules effective for antioxidant support?
Broccoli sprouts are rich in glucoraphanin, which converts to sulforaphane—a powerful antioxidant compound. KOYAH’s capsules may help provide a natural way to support antioxidant activity, with the added benefit of consuming a nutrient-dense, whole food.
