 INTRO FAQ

What gift is meaningful enough to convey the love you have for your parents? And, let’s be honest, what gift do they really need? It sure isn’t another bathrobe or necktie. According to epigenetic aging expert Hannah Went, it could be Broc Shot, since its concentrated dose of active sulforaphane offers key protection for both physical well-being and healthspan.

Sulforaphane’s ability to support health across our lives lies in its protective influence on cellular health. Assessing the health of our cells gives us an important snapshot of how well we’re aging. We refer to this as biological age (as opposed to chronological age, the number of birthdays you’ve had).

Sulforaphane, found in cruciferous vegetables and concentrated in broccoli sprouts, targets multiple factors that threaten to prematurely advance our biological age. In doing so, says Went, it protects our healthspan, the years that we spend in good health.

“If we know that we're slowing down the biological aging process, we're going to add a multitude of years, even healthy years, at the end of our lives,” she says. “I think sulforaphane is even more important for those who are chronologically older. It all goes back to delaying the onset of disease, or making sure that disease doesn’t happen. We naturally gain a lot of inflammation as we age. We also accumulate toxic exposures and free radicals.”

That buildup of free radical damage takes a toll on cellular health over time, leading to more rapidly advancing biological age in our later years. Free radicals are a byproduct of everyday living— they’re created by metabolism, exercise, stress, and also external forces like sunlight and pollution. But as we age as our bodies lose their ability to bounce back from this continual damage.

SULFORAPHANE & FREE RADICALS

Sulforaphane counteracts excessive free radical damage with its potent antioxidant effects (1). “Sulforaphane’s ability to stimulate the production of antioxidant enzymes in the body really helps protect from free radical damage, which you gain as you age. That reduction in oxidative stress can reduce inflammation and potentially lower the risk of chronic diseases too,” says Went.

Free radical damage and inflammation are tightly linked, since accumulating free radicals drive up inflammation and inflammation increases free radical damage. Sulforaphane interrupts this damaging loop. Multiple studies have shown sulforaphane’s anti-inflammatory effects (2), including its ability to normalize the expression of genes related to inflammation (3). According to Went, sulforaphane also helps reduce inflammation by supporting apoptosis (4), the body’s natural removal of old cells. This translates to additional protection against inflammation-driven chronic disease.

SULFORAPHANE & DNA METHYLATION

Another way that sulforaphane slows cellular aging is through its effects on DNA methylation (5). When DNA methylation goes awry, it can fuel cancer, cardiovascular disease, and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s. As sulforaphane helps restore balance to DNA methylation (6), it turns on the expression of protective genes and turns off the expression of damaging genes. Over time, this supports cellular health, energy, and healthspan.

THE TAKEAWAY

Longevity science continues to uncover new information that may help all of us lengthen our healthspan. Passing on that developing knowledge, including new supplements and lifestyle habits that support physical health, may be the best gift we can give to our loved ones. As Went says, “This isn’t about stopping aging. It’s about aging more gracefully. And about asking how we can add more of those healthy years to our lives.”

"I'm in the best shape of my life. I never take supplements but this has changed the game. 221 days in and will not miss a day."

"Feel amazing. Started this two months ago. I used to get sick or really bad allergies and sinus headaches once or twice a month. Knock on wood I have been completely healthy the last couple of months which is strange considering this is peak allergy season for me normally. Skin looks great. Great improvement even with digestion!"

I have been committed for the past week and noticed less bloat. My period is starting soon so we will see if I notice an improvement with my usual symptoms. I plan to stay committed for a couple months to see if it makes a big difference.

"After about 2 or 3 weeks of broc shot I've noticed a big difference in the clarity of skin, decreased mental fog, more energy, and less mood swings. I'm excited to experience more changes after prolonged use and will continue to purchase."

It really balances me out. I just feel better when I take it. I've been enjoying the benefits since January. 2 times I took a week long break and within a few days each time I could tell

This is the energy boost I have been looking for to replace coffee. Great taste too, although I wish there was a sampler set with all three flavors.

I've been using the Broc Shot daily for a few months now and the changes to my skin are noticeable. The extra shine is definitely noticeable. In addition, I feel like my energy levels and daily focus has improved.

This was a great start for my wellness journey - I noticed a difference right away within the first 3 days: more energy and mental clarity, within a week I saw clearer skin and more regulated digestion patterns. I am pretty sure my nails have grown quicker than usual as well :)

I love it, I love knowing I am getting a potent dose of broc sprouts daily. it is quick and easy and my skin is looking brighter. I do crossfit and have not been taking any pre workout or even coffee in the am anymore.
