Dr. Rhonda Patrick is a prolific evangelist for sulforaphane and Dr. Jed Fahey is like the Godfather of sulforaphane and you can get her 15 page sprouting guide along with his Q&A at Rhonda Patrick's Found My Fitness web site: https://www.foundmyfitness.com/sprouting
Dr. Fahey also answers a bunch of questions about broccoli sprouting and sulforaphane in the document.
Some points of interest:
- Most broccoli sprouting guidance suggests 2 tablespoons of seeds for a quart jar, but Rhonda recommends between 3 and 7 tablespoons. I am guessing the reason she suggests more seeds is because, to get maximum sulforaphane, "It’s best to harvest them in the first two to five days, when their cotyledons – the seed leaves – pop out of the seed". I'm thinking if you harvest earlier, that mean you can get more seeds into the jar and it will not fill up before you harvest. Put another way: If you use 2 tablespoons of seeds and don't harvest until the jar fills up, then you are probably harvesting too lat for maximum sulforaphane content. I use 4 tablespoons.
- Both doctors make a big deal about disinfecting your seeds.
- Here is an interesting quote from Dr. Fahey: "Many people talk about sprouting all sorts of cruciferous vegetables and assume that they will have
sulforaphane or its precursor glucoraphanin in them. It ain’t so! Unfortunately, it’s pretty much only
broccoli seeds and their sprouts that contain glucoraphanin."
- This guide has a LOT of great information and lists of resources.
Please check out the PDF. It is well worth having in your library.
