The best detox

DESCRIPTION: The most powerful natural inducer of our liver's detoxifying enzyme system is sulforaphane, a phytonutrient produced by broccoli. Have a question about this video? Leave it in the comment section at http://nutritionfacts.org/videos/the-...​ and I'll try to answer it! This "glow stick" reaction is similar to what happens in garlic. I talked about it in #14 of my Ask the Doctor Q&A blog (http://nutritionfacts.org/blog/2011/1...​). There is a level at which sulforaphane may become toxic, but that appears to be only at extremely high doses (see Liver Toxicity Due to Broccoli Juice http://nutritionfacts.org/video/liver...​ and How Much Broccoli Is Too Much? - http://nutritionfacts.org/video/liver...​).
