Avmacol - Sulforaphane

1. Bioavailability

This product is designed to boost your body’s own sulforaphane production from broccoli compounds rather than providing sulforaphane directly.

  • Broccoli seed extract + myrosinase enzyme system — provides glucoraphanin (precursor) and the enzyme needed to convert it to sulforaphane

  • Myrosimax® technology — stabilizes the myrosinase enzyme to enhance conversion in the gut

  • Clinically tested: In a Johns Hopkins–affiliated study, Avmacol produced a ~25-fold increase in circulating sulforaphane metabolites within two hours of ingestion, while most competing “broccoli” supplements tested only reached 1–2-fold increases at best

  • Combines with moringa for additional phytochemicals supporting detoxification pathways

2. Dosage / Potency

It delivers a standardized precursor dose plus active enzyme to consistently produce sulforaphane.

  • Each tablet contains glucoraphanin + myrosinase designed to yield clinically meaningful sulforaphane levels

  • Extra Strength version — higher concentration compared to the original Avmacol

  • Daily use supports Nrf2 activation, detox enzymes, and antioxidant gene expression

  • Suitable for adults and older children as a dietary sulforaphane booster

3. Source

Developed by Nutramax Laboratories with a patent-backed enzyme system.

  • Made in the USA with controlled manufacturing standards

  • Uses broccoli seed as the primary glucoraphanin source — a reliable, standardized plant extract

  • Includes moringa leaf extract — rich in additional isothiocyanates and antioxidants

  • Transparent about its Myrosimax® process and third-party testing

4. Excipients / Fillers

This product uses a tablet form with plant-based binders rather than capsules.

  • Contains the typical binders and excipients needed to form a stable tablet (microcrystalline cellulose, plant gums, etc.)

  • No artificial colors or preservatives listed — but it’s not a minimalist “one ingredient” capsule

  • Formulation designed to ensure the enzyme survives storage and stomach acid

  • Reasonably clean for a complex enzyme + precursor system
