Dr Rhonda what do you know about "maltodextrin"(Assume for control that I HAD a perfectly diverse biome prior to maltodextrin consumption - diet of raw foods/fibers and/or wild salmon, spinach, sprout shakes, kimche, oats/bananas occasionally, lots of almond milk)

[@JulesLife]

So would it be safe to just have a teaspoon of broccoli sprouts in a blender every other day then? Is that a small enough amount that it's likely safe?

[@GARIMITO]

Hi Dr Rhonda Patrick, I just want to point out that isothiocyanates can interfere with the thyroid’s absorption of iodine and high and chronic doses can lead to hypothyroidism. It is important to supplement with iodine salt. I have hypothyroidism secondary to high and chronic doses plus lack of iodine salt

40:39 He says broccoli sprouts may do as much harm as good against cancer but if it it helps prevents cancer it follows that it will help reduce the chances of the cancer spreading. So even though I'm just a diesel mechanic I think its worthwhile. Btw I'm a bit over 2 years into this cancer adventure. Saw the stats on chemo which show that chemo doesnt improve the 5 year survival rate by even a day with this problem (colon cancer with liver metastases). So instead of doing chemo I went with the alternatives. Now I'm about 80 pounds lighter and actually feel better than I did before I found out I had cancer. Allergies? GONE! The serious arthritis in my knees? GONE! Heart palpitations? GONE! Severe snoring? GONE! Acid reflux? GONE! And I get around and move like I did 20 years ago. Before I knew I had cancer I was asking for trouble. All that pizza and soda was killing me. If it weren't cancer it would have been a heart attack, stroke, diabetes or who knows what. One thing cancer can do is scare a guy into saying no to pizza and icecream.

That’s great about the health turnaround. Had similar situation with a couple cancers and using nutritional approach that brought impressive extra health benefits. Using a friend’s juicer for veggies and my own bullet blender helped a lot for sure. Stats are tricky aren’t they? I was fortunate to connect with someone whose specialty was stat research. Stats showed a slight increased five year survival (maybe one to two percent) from cancer with a certain chemo but when looking at details the death from other causes increased. Other causes including probable side effects from harmful treatments. A key for my choice in avoiding that chemo was that survival years later in case of recurrence, which happened, was much better for people who had NOT done that particular chemo. In any case, quality of life was and is a consideration too. Having a nutritional focus seems beneficial whatever one chooses to do. I loved the vegetable juicer, adding digestive enzymes, and other goodies for my particular health situation. Sounds like you’ve done and are doing very well with the situation. That’s wonderful.

One of the best Q&A podcasts, gripping stuff. It’s quite exceptional to see screenshots of peer-reviewed papers backing up the arguments, well into the discussion, some in machine-gun mode when discussing some less-than-substantiated claims. I feel that public health agencies and journalists generally do a poor job of summarising the state of scientific research when they provide nutritional advice. In-depth discussions bring out the nuance, and this interview/discussion set a very high standard. Government agencies and journalists involved in public health: take note of how complex topics can be presented to Joe and Jane public.

I wonder, does growing broccoli seeds throught microgreens method (using soil) makes the sprouts more likely to higher yields of glucoraphanin? Because when we use soil the sprouts actually have a bunch more nutrients available so they can build plant tissue right?

I doubt if you remember, but a couple of years ago I suggested you start adding it to your smoothies as moringa is easier on the taste buds while packed with more nutrients than all the other ingredients.

By the way thanks for the Moringa tip, I travelled many times in Uganda . And I asked a local agri gardener for fruit and veggies about Moringa Tree …. they have the trees everywhere but do not use the leaves because it is food for the poor. There was also a try out by the government during the hype ….to make agri farms for Moringa Trees , but the efforts where unsuccessful due to high export prices compared to country like India . The local Uganda people …. do not know what green gold they have in their vicinity and are not informed either! …. But they are getting increasingly influenced by the big agri industry ( and politics) to produce what the agri industry wants … not for what is healthy and cheap for them to grow.

Go back and listen to him again, as he definitely did NOT say that it doesn’t work: unlike KZbin gurus and random FB strangers, these scientists don’t speak in such black and white absolutes. All he said is that there’s currently, and as far as he’s aware, no consensus and/or enough studies to give you the absolute confirmation you’re seeking... which is rather impossible to do, especially as they start the show explaining how the dose is relative to many variables (the source of the broccoli and the seeds, the preparation methods, your individual microbiome, etc). You’re just drawing conclusions from a very generalistic answer instead of looking for the research and the data.

Dr. Fahey's research is extremely relevant for our times. I also believe that there's the danger of Pharmacologizing food too much. Nature was created with everything just right for nutrition. Humanity has prospered and survived eating real food up to now. Now people are eating fake food and do not know it. I would rather tell people to eat a variety of vegetable things. just to eat real food is already a huge and preventive change. Some of these regulatory molecules work long term in the mix of food. There's no way you can get broccoli every day and call this a good variety. I also imagine that there is redundancy in these substances in nature. I don't need a study to be published in order for me to put something in my diet. If we trust that the same Person who created us prepared things for us, you rest and do good on the earth, and it will go well. That said, I understand that in some occasions the pharmacologic use of food components can serve some function in specific disease processes

I've been taking moringa supplements for several years plus since I live in South Florida I grow some moringa trees in my yard. It was one of the best decisions I've ever made moringa does make me feel good.

Really appreciate the information. Looking for information on diet as it has affects my recent diagnosis for cervical stenosis. Somehow youtube directed me to this amazing interview.

[@CasualJay1]

Great information and detail, thanks for another great video Rhonda. A question: I have yet to find a reference in any of your information on micro greens, it all refers to sprouts. How do (broccoli) micro greens compare to sprouts on the key benefits?

[@dianasolfest7237]

So is Jarrow BroccoMax still not worth buying? You mentioned on Rogan that it wasn't as high quality as other similar supps but didn't explain why... And it's the easiest to order via Amazon. 🤔

[@guys5049]

This supplement is recommended by Brassica (Jed was a partner) and has active Myrosinase: www.amazon.com/OncoProtect-EXTRA-STRENGTH-Glucoraphanin-Pharmaceutical/dp/B00Y3NPSNE/

I really wish we had clearer info on dosage. I keep hearing 100grams a day. Would this be cut in half if you froze the broccoli sprouts since the Sulforaphane content is doubled? 100grams is such a large amount of sprouts. I might just start eating fresh (not frozen or boiled to 70 degrees) 3 times a day. 100 gram broccoli shake is really hard to stomach. If I have to do multiple shakes a day i know I wont stick with it. Also would have been nice if they had talked about how long you can safely/effectively keep the sprouts frozen, and if unfreezing them will the Sulforaphane content "run off" the sprouts.

[@privi889]

What about hasimoto - hypothyrodism. Do you believe sulforaphane supplementation is ok?

[@2t3hr7]

Where can we find a ranking of cruciferous vegetables by how much glucosinolates they contain... or whatever that compound is called...? For example broccoli sprouts are at or near top. I was surprised to hear cauliflower actually contains far less than I thought. Thanks

[@Goodrichvp]

Thank you so much for everything you do.

[@romakwas2310]

So cancer patients should shy clear of supplementation because it may promote cancer growth? Sulforaphane both prevents and may promote cancer? Notice that you didn't comment on his warning to exercise caution regards broccoli ingestion when cancer already ongoing. Most all oncologists discourage any and all supplement and vitamin use during chemotherapy. Because it would strengthen cancer growth and render chemo chemicals ineffective. Any hope of getting clarification here, please? And his remark regarding the trial using a high enough dose sulforaphane to kill a horse? Is there is a lethal threshold here?

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

U never got a response 🥺 But I would ignore oncologists. They are flying by the seat of their pants. They have no clue what they’re doing. Oncology is a sham.

It’s everywhere the only way to get rid of it is for people to stop buying GMO sprayed with it. Plasma charged water has been shown to work as a herbicide and pesticide without destroying the fungal colonies that help protect the plants and allow them to communicate bio chemically naturally as well which also distributes their nutritional properties.

Dr Greger gives moringa a thumbs down :( "Diabetics were given about three-quarters of a teaspoon of moringa leaf powder every day for 12 weeks and got significant improvements in measures of inflammation as well as long-term blood sugar control. But the reason they call it a quasi-experimental study is because there was no control group. The researchers just took measurements before and after, and we know just being in a dietary study can lead some people to consciously or unconsciously eat more healthfully, so we don’t know what effect the moringa itself had. Even in moringa studies with a control group, it’s not clear if the subjects were randomly allocated. And in this study, the researchers didn’t specify how much moringa people were even given. What does one tablet’s worth mean? No significant improvement in this study; maybe they didn’t give enough? This study used a tablespoon a day, and not only saw a significant drop in fasting blood sugars, but a significant drop in LDL cholesterol as well. Two teaspoons a day didn’t seem to help, so was it just that a whole tablespoon is needed? Apparently not, since finally, a randomized placebo-controlled study using a tablespoon of moringa a day failed to show any benefit on blood sugar control in type 2 diabetics. So, we’re left with a few studies showing potential, but most failing to show benefit. Why not just give moringa a try to see for yourself? That’s a legitimate course of action in the face of conflicting data when we’re talking about safe, simple, side effect-free solutions. But is moringa safe? Probably not during pregnancy, as about 80 percent of “women folk” in some areas of the world use it to abort pregnancies, and its effectiveness for that purpose has been confirmed, at least in rats--though breastfeeding women may get about a half-cup boost in milk production based on “six randomized, placebo-controlled, blinded, clinical trials”. Just because moringa has “long been used in [folk medicine traditions]” in no way proves that the plant is safe to consume. Lots of horribly toxic stuff, like mercury and lead for instance, have been used in traditional medical systems the world over. But hey, at least “no major harmful effects of [moringa] … have been reported by the scientific community”, or more accurately, “no adverse effects were reported in any of the human studies that [had] been conducted to date.” In other words, no harmful effects had been reported, until now. “Stevens-Johnson syndrome … following [moringa leaf] consumption”: Stevens-Johnson syndrome is probably the most dreaded drug side effect, a rare but potentially fatal condition characterized by “epidermal detachment.” In other words, it can make your skin fall off. Fourteen hours after consuming moringa, a guy broke out. The same thing had happened three months earlier, the last time he had eaten moringa, causing him to suffer “extensive lesions with blister formation over [his] face, mouth, chest, abdomen, and genitalia.” “This case report suggests that consumption of Moringa leaf is better avoided by individuals who are at risk of developing [Stevens-Johnson].” Although it can happen to anyone, HIV is a risk factor. My take on moringa is that the evidence of benefit wasn’t compelling enough to justify shopping online for something special when you can get healthy vegetables in your local market like broccoli, which has yet to be implicated in any genital blistering. nutritionfacts.org/video/the-efficacy-and-side-effects-of-moringa-leaf-powder/

Hi Rhonda, great interview. After learning that moringa lowers blood glucose did you give it a try and notice any difference on your continuous monitor?

[@ukaszk4410]

Hello! Thank you for all the work you put into popularizing the Sulforaphane. I wonder what food/drink could inhibit the Sulforaphane's absorption by our bodies? For example is grapefruit or green tea OK before or soon after eating the broccoli sprouts?

Is Jarrow BroccoMax worth taking as a supplement?

[@quiasnoorzad]

Great question. Dr Patrick said that BroccoMax is decent.

[@nellyandress4556]

Dr. Patrick, in 2002-2003, Dr. Fahey saw the pail of Moringa oleifera seed I left at TAMU food protein research center at Bryan TX, and promptly called me. We had some patents with M. oleifera dealing with seed oil and derivatives back then, and the supply was extremely limited. We grew the supply over the years. If you or Jed are interested, please message me.

[@SoundsToBlowYourMind]

Couldn't you and your colleagues come up with some sort of recipe for broccoli soup (and best way to prepare it) to give a decent level of sulforaphane ? Maybe adding mustard seeds / moringa, etc ?

[@badfozziebear446]

Try some broccoli with hot water

[@taraconoff6727]

I think though that the heat of the soup would also destroy the myrosinase in the mustard seed, which is why mustard seed should be put on broccoli after it is cooked.
