Gut healthPumpkin Spice Latte Stomach Ache: What's in the Cup and Why It Hurts
A pumpkin spice latte can hurt your stomach through the coffee, the milk or both. A grande has 150 mg of caffeine, 14 g of fat and 50 g of sugar, and coffee raises stomach acid even when it is decaf. -
Gut healthAfter H. pylori Treatment, and the Burn Is Still There
A burning stomach after H. pylori treatment is common: in a Japanese study of more than 23,000 endoscopy records, 28.7% of people still had upper abdominal pain or bloating after the infection was cleared. Confirm cure with a breath, stool or biopsy test at least 4 weeks after treatment. -
Gut healthAcidic Foods and Silent Reflux: Why Sour Candy Hits Your Throat
Acidic foods are commonly linked to GERD symptoms, and in silent reflux the stomach enzyme pepsin reaches the voice box. Pepsin is most active near pH 2, and sour sweets measured pH 2.30 to 3.14. Which foods to avoid, what to eat instead, and when to stop eating before bed. -
Success storiesSproutly Sulforaphane Review: Why Customers Rate It the Best Broccoli Sprout Supplement

Sulforaphane 101Myrosinase: The Enzyme That Decides Whether Your Sulforaphane Supplement Works
Myrosinase is the enzyme that cuts glucoraphanin into sulforaphane. In human testing, preparations with active myrosinase delivered about 40โ41.8% of the dose as absorbed sulforaphane, against about 9.4โ11.5% without it, so an active enzyme source on the label is the line to check. -
Sulforaphane 101Sulforaphane Bioavailability: Why Most Supplements Never Become Sulforaphane, and How to Check Yours
Sulforaphane bioavailability is the share of a dose that reaches your blood as sulforaphane. In a human crossover, about 10% of a glucoraphanin dose was recovered without active myrosinase and about 40% with it, so the enzyme line on a label matters more than the milligrams. -
Gut healthBroccoli Sprout Extract for Gut Health: The Complete Guide
Broccoli sprout extract supplies glucoraphanin, which the body can convert into sulforaphane, a compound studied for activating the Nrf2 pathway that supports a healthy gut lining and microbiome balance. That conversion needs the enzyme myrosinase. -
Gut healthGERD and Silent Reflux (LPR): Why Acid Blockers Aren't the Whole Answer
Acid blockers lower stomach acid, but reflux also carries pepsin, which is why silent reflux (LPR) often persists on PPIs. Sulforaphane supports the tissue reflux irritates by activating the Nrf2 pathway, rather than only reducing acid. -
Gut healthLeaky Gut: How Sulforaphane Supports Your Intestinal Barrier
"Leaky gut" means increased intestinal permeability. Sulforaphane activates the Nrf2 pathway, which helps the cells lining the intestine defend themselves. In cell and mouse studies it protected tight junction proteins. -
Gut healthWhy SIBO and IBS Keep Coming Back โ And How Sulforaphane Supports a Calmer Gut
SIBO often comes back after antibiotics: in one study of 80 people, 43.7% tested positive again at 9 months. Most treatments work by subtraction and leave the conditions that let it grow; sulforaphane supports the gut environment through the Nrf2 pathway. -
Gut healthSulforaphane for Gastritis & H. Pylori: What the Research Actually Shows
In an 8-week trial in 48 people with H. pylori, daily broccoli sprouts, but not alfalfa sprouts, lowered markers of H. pylori colonization and of gastric inflammation. In infected mice, the effect depended on Nrf2, the pathway sulforaphane works through. -
Sulforaphane 101Sulforaphane for Detox: How NRF2 Activation Fights Microplastics, BPA & Environmental Toxins
Sulforaphane does not remove microplastics directly. It activates NRF2, which switches on the phase 2 enzymes that handle the chemicals plastics carry. In a separate trial in China, a broccoli sprout drink raised urinary excretion of products of the airborne pollutants benzene and acrolein.
