Inside every stomach cell sits a pathway called Nrf2 — the master switch for your stomach's internal defense system.
When Nrf2 is active, your cells produce glutathione — your body's strongest internal antioxidant — generate enzymes that calm inflammation, and rebuild the mucus barrier on their own.
When it's dormant, none of that is happening at full strength.
Research published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences identified one natural compound that activates Nrf2 directly inside gastric tissue: sulforaphane, found in concentrated form in broccoli sprouts.
In an 8-week human study, broccoli sprout extract was shown to reduce markers of gastric inflammation, lower oxidative stress in stomach tissue, and improve the gastric environment.
But here's the catch.
Sulforaphane doesn't exist in the plant.
It only forms when a precursor (glucoraphanin) meets a live enzyme (myrosinase) inside your body.
Almost every "broccoli extract" on Amazon contains the precursor without the enzyme. The active compound never forms.
You swallow inactive plant material and wonder why nothing changed.
Sproutly was formulated to fix exactly that:
- 700 mg Broccoli Seed Extract
- 200 mg Broccoli Sprout Extract with active myrosinase — the live enzyme that triggers conversion in your gut
- 100 mg Mustard Seed Extract — backup natural myrosinase for reliable conversion
- 50 mg Vitamin C — supports the conversion window
Up to 30mg sulforaphane per serving.
Four ingredients. Clinical doses. Lab-tested for potency. GMP-certified facility. Non-GMO. Vegan.
The formulation the research actually pointed to.
