Talking about nutraceuticals, foof as medicine, there is a new research work.
A recent research published in the Clinical Inmunology journal reveals that sulphoraphane, a chemical contained in broccoli sprouts alleviates asthma symptoms.
The activity of this chemical, a potent antioxidant, is through the enhancement of enzymes that promote antioxidant reactions, thus avoiding inflamatory chain reactions to occur in the upper airway cells.
The patients were fed with a natural homogenate of broccoli sprouts, with no other modification.
