What Is Sulforaphane?
Sulforaphane is a sulfur-rich phytochemical found in cruciferous vegetables with the highest levels derived from broccoli plants.
WATCH + LEARN NOW
- Discovered by Johns Hopkins researchers in the 1990’s, Sulforaphane has over 1,000 peer reviewed studies and articles demonstrating its ability to support your gut, detoxification pathways, and inflammatory balance.
- Johns Hopkins study in China (2013)(1) demonstrated sulforaphane's ability to detoxify cancer-causing air pollutants within 24 hours
- Sulforaphane has been extensively researched in the following areas: longevity, skin integrity and health, metabolic health, sports performance and recovery, cognitive health, gut health, immunity, cancer, Alzhiemer’s, Autism, ADHD, psoriasis, arthritis, and more
- Sulforaphane is part of a plant's defense mechanism produced as an enzymatic reaction between two ingredients in a broccoli plant: glucoraphanin and the active enzyme myrosinase; without both there is little to no sulforaphane, no benefits.
- Experts recommend an optimum level of sulforaphane is between 10-15mg for most people

Your Body Already Has A Defense System. Sulforaphane Switches It On.
Featured in over 1,000 peer-reviewed studies, sulforaphane activates NRF2 — the pathway that regulates 200+ protective genes involved in antioxidant defense, inflammatory balance, and Phase II detoxification.
Calms The Driver Behind Reactive Skin
Sulforaphane activates NRF2, switching on your body's antioxidant defenses, and helps block NF-κB — a key driver of inflammatory signaling that shows up on the surface as redness and irritation.
Supports The Gut–Skin Connection
Sulforaphane helps normalize gut microflora and maintain the integrity of the gut barrier — the same system tied to digestion, nutrient absorption, and how calm your skin looks.
Clears What The Modern World Adds
80,000 toxic chemicals are approved for use in the US. Sulforaphane activates the Phase II enzymes that help your body process and eliminate them before they cause cellular damage.
A Superior Sulforaphane Source
Broc Shot delivers potent, naturally activated sulforaphane in a reliable dose that's difficult to achieve through diet alone, helping your body activate its natural defense system.

Each Broc Shot provides no less than 12 mg of natural sulforaphane—the equivalent of consuming 5–10 pounds of raw broccoli daily.
Stabilized sulforaphane is not natural.
Creating it typically requires alcohols, solvents, or other synthetic chemicals to preserve or encapsulate the compound. For individuals dealing with inflammation, gut imbalances, or detox challenges, introducing these additives can be counterproductive, potentially aggravating the very symptoms they're trying to relieve.
That's why natural sulforaphane, delivered without chemical interference, is a more supportive choice.
While we respect organic certification, our standards are higher.
"Certified Organic" doesn't always mean pesticide-free, as USDA-certified organic crops can still use approved pesticides. We go further: our cultivation is non-GMO, pesticide-free, herbicide-free and always glyphosate-free.
Every batch is tested at multiple stages for sulforaphane potency, chemical residues, heavy metals, and microbiological safety. Nothing is released without meeting our strict criteria first.
Production takes place in HACCP- and SQF-certified facilities, globally recognized for food safety and quality.
Nature already got it right. Never stabilized.
That's why we use gently milled whole broccoli seeds to deliver a guaranteed minimum of 12 mg of natural sulforaphane in every serving.
How Is Broc Shot Different?
Not all sulforaphane supplements are created equal. Broc Shot was born out of the need for a reliable sulforaphane source. We are different and you will feel the difference.
Our formula is natural while other companies use the term "naturally derived."
"Naturally derived" is not natural—it is simply a marketing term. Once something is chemically altered it is no longer natural. It becomes synthetic. We think this term is disingenuous and misleading.
We guarantee 12 mg of natural sulforaphane in every serving of Broc Shot. This means you are receiving a consistent, measurable dose of sulforaphane your body can recognize and use — without relying on inconsistent food sources or stabilized (chemically formed) sulforaphane. Each Broc Shot format is designed to deliver this same guaranteed level of natural sulforaphane, so you can choose the experience that fits your routine without compromising potency.
Broc Shot is made with only the simplest functional ingredients: broccoli seed powder and horseradish root powder, naturally rich in sulforaphane — with no fillers, no stabilizing chemicals, no artificial additives, and no unnecessary extras.
Many pills also include silica or silicon dioxide. While the FDA has recognized them as GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe), we believe these should be avoided therefore we don’t use them.
We do not use broccoli extracts. Many products on the market contain only isolated glucoraphanin, leaving it up to the body’s own enzymes to convert it into sulforaphane.
Broc Shot uses whole broccoli seed powder that naturally contains both glucoraphanin and active myrosinase, enabling reliable, natural formation of sulforaphane and improved bioavailability upon ingestion.
We don’t use stabilized sulforaphane. We have intentionally chosen not to use stabilized sulforaphane as it is not natural. Stabilizing sulforaphane involves the use of alcohols, solvents and other chemicals to stabilize and/or encapsulate it. Many of our users are facing inflammation, gut health issues and are trying to better detoxify their systems so we feel that using a stabilized sulforaphane with chemical additives is simply counter-intuitive and could contribute to some of the issues they are trying to address. The stabilizing of sulforaphane is also known to be harsh on the stomach and may cause inflammation in some people.
Over 98% of users saw more luminous, clearer skin, 96% saw clearer-looking skin, and 86% saw younger-looking skin. Plus we have a 30 day money back guarantee as we are confident you will feel better on Broc Shot.
