Sulforaphane, Avmacol® and Real World Applications in a Brain Health Clinic in South Korea
Multifactorial phytochemicals, such as sulforaphane, whose precursor glucoraphanin is found in crucifers, offer safe, effective, and promising ways to promote overall health and wellness. Avmacol® is a nutraceutical which generates sulforaphane by providing both glucoraphanin and the active myrosinase enzyme. This presentation will explore some of the now global human clinical trial initiatives underway using Avmacol. A special emphasis on sulforaphane's promotion of brain health will be included with Dr.Jihoon Kim co-presenting and sharing how he uses Avmacol, and the results he has seen, in his practice at The Balance Brain Center in Seoul, South Korea.
